🎙️ Episode — Liz Sergeant: Food, Gut Health & Reclaiming Your Hormones | The House of Hormones PodcastThis week on The House of Hormones, we welcome Liz Sergeant, founder of Well Nourished Club, certified nutritionist and integrative health practitioner. Liz brings a pragmatic, science-backed, and deeply compassionate approach to hormone health — helping thousands of women rebalance their cycles, heal their gut, and escape burnout for good. Her journey from corporate pharmacy into holistic nutrition gives her a rare blend of clinical rigour and real-world empathy, making complicated topics like hormones and metabolism feel refreshingly accessible.In this episode Liz and host Leah Christian unpack how burnout and hormones are intimately linked, how to spot the signs of adrenal and metabolic exhaustion, and why gut health is central to hormonal balance. We dig into practical, evidence-based guidance on what to eat, how antibiotics and the contraceptive pill can affect your microbiome, and simple daily practices that actually move the needle — from breathwork and body literacy to “change one thing at a time” habits that stick. Liz also stresses the importance of testing — know your body, don’t guess — and offers realistic ways to bring more nourishment and less shame into your wellness journey.⏱️ Episode highlights (what we cover):00:00 – Intro00:02 – Who is Liz Sergeant: nutritionist & founder of Well Nourished Club00:05 – From corporate pharmacy to holistic nutrition: why education matters00:08 – Why women aren’t taught body literacy early enough00:10 – What is burnout and how it links to hormones00:15 – How to recognise if you have burnout (practical signs)00:17 – Gut health explained: the missing piece for hormonal balance00:21 – What should we be eating?
