In this powerful episode of Hormones, Metabolism & You!, board-certified endocrinologist Dr. Cassie Smith sits down with nutrition pioneer Shana Hussin, RDN, for an open-hearted conversation about why the health trends we follow can sometimes backfire—especially when stress and burnout are involved. What You'll Hear: How fasting backfired during a season of high stress and adrenal exhaustion. The role of hormones like leptin and cortisol in regulating appetite, sleep, and metabolic balance. Why one-size-fits-all health plans fail, especially around hormone and gut health. Shana's personal pivot—from rigid fasting to listening to her body and honoring circadian rhythms. The healing power of grounding, gut support, and restoring rhythm over restriction. 🔗 Links Mentioned in This Episode: ✨ Feel Great System – Clean, effective daily support for metabolic health 🎓 Courses & Programs – Including Low Insulin Academy, Cortisol Calm, and more 💬 Follow Shana on Instagram – Daily tips, truth bombs, and healing insights 🎙️ More Podcast Episodes – Optimal Metabolism podcast archive
