In this meaningful episode of It’s Hertime, Cody Sanders sits down with Aubin Palmer—registered nurse turned author, mother of three daughters, and creator of the Power Women movement—for an honest conversation about what happens when strong, capable women start to feel quietly disconnected from themselves.

Aubin shares her journey from working as an RN caring for women in vulnerable seasons to feeling the persistent inner nudge that there was more she was meant to create. That calling ultimately led to the creation of Power Women, a collaborative book featuring the lived experiences of more than 50 women whose stories remind readers that power doesn’t always look loud, polished, or linear.

Together, Cody and Aubin explore the emotional and identity shifts many women face—especially during motherhood, burnout, hormonal transitions, and major life pivots—and why so many high-capacity women find themselves feeling stretched thin or disconnected despite doing everything “right.”

They also discuss the powerful themes that emerged from compiling women’s stories, why storytelling can be deeply healing for the nervous system, and how the Power Women movement is giving forward by placing books into the hands of women navigating particularly tender seasons, including postpartum mothers.

This episode is a supportive listen for any woman who has been the helper, the caretaker, or the one holding everything together—and is ready to come back home to herself.

In this episode, listeners will learn:

•Aubin Palmer’s transition from registered nurse to movement builder

•Why strong women often experience seasons of disconnection

•The most common themes that emerged from 50+ women’s stories

•What power really looks like in quiet or difficult seasons

•How storytelling supports emotional and nervous system healing

•Who the Power Women book is especially meant to support

•How the book is being donated to women in challenging circumstances

•One small step women can take this week to reconnect with themselves

This episode is especially for women who:

•Feel torn between caring for others and caring for themselves

•Are navigating postpartum, burnout, or identity shifts

•Have been told they’re “doing great” but don’t feel like themselves

•Are craving reconnection, clarity, and emotional steadiness

•Want to feel seen and understood in this season of life

Why are so many women still exhausted—even when they’re eating well, sleeping more, and being told their labs look “normal”?

In this episode of It’s Hertime, Cody Sanders sits down with Dr. Evan Hirsch, also known as the EnergyMD, to unpack the real root causes behind chronic fatigue, long COVID, and persistent low energy in women. Drawing from both his personal health journey and clinical work, Dr. Hirsch explains why fatigue is rarely just about sleep or stress—and what actually needs to happen for true energy recovery.

Together, Cody and Dr. Hirsch explore the systems-based drivers of fatigue, the role of nervous system dysregulation, and why many women feel worse when they try to “push through.” If you or someone you love feels tired all the time, wired but exhausted, or stuck in burnout despite doing all the right things, this conversation will bring clarity and hope.

⸻

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

•The difference between being tired and having true chronic fatigue

•Why standard lab work often misses the root causes of low energy

•How long COVID and ME/CFS overlap with hormone and nervous system dysfunction

•The EnergyMD Method and the “Toxic Five” contributors to fatigue

•Why pushing harder with exercise can sometimes backfire

•How nervous system regulation impacts energy, recovery, and resilience

•The first steps women can take to start rebuilding real, sustainable energy

⸻

Dr. Evan Hirsch is a fatigue expert who specializes in helping people recover from chronic fatigue syndrome, long COVID, and complex energy issues using a root-cause, functional medicine approach. After experiencing his own five-year battle with fatigue, he developed the EnergyMD Method to help patients systematically uncover and address the underlying drivers of low energy.

What if the problem isn’t that your body is broken… but that it’s overloaded?

In this episode of It’s Hertime, women’s health practitioner and functional nutritionist Cody Sanders sits down with Miguel Bautista to explore a powerful reframe around chronic fatigue, burnout, Long COVID, and “mystery” symptoms.

Miguel shares how he went from thriving personal trainer to completely bedridden and hospitalized — only to be told his labs were “normal.” What ultimately shifted his recovery wasn’t another protocol or supplement. It was understanding how nervous system overload was driving his symptoms.

This conversation is especially relevant for high-functioning women who:

•Feel exhausted despite normal lab work

•Have been told “everything looks fine”

•Push harder when their bodies push back

•Feel like their system can’t handle stress the way it used to

In this episode, we discuss:

•What nervous system dysregulation actually means

•Why symptoms feel intensely physical

•Why over-efforting, biohacking, and pushing through often backfire

•The emotional side of recovery

•How to rebuild capacity safely and sustainably

For women navigating midlife, perimenopause, hormone shifts, and high responsibility loads, this conversation offers both validation and strategy. When the nervous system doesn’t feel safe, hormones, sleep, blood sugar, and energy regulation become significantly harder.

Healing isn’t about doing more. It’s about building capacity.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’m exhausted, overstimulated, and intimacy feels like one more thing on my to-do list,” this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, we’re finally talking about libido — honestly, openly, and without shame. So many women quietly wonder why they don’t feel like themselves anymore, especially after babies, during perimenopause, or in menopause. This episode is here to remind you: you are not broken — your body is communicating.

Cody is joined by Dr. Diane Mueller, a board-certified sexologist, national speaker, best-selling author, and podcast host who has worked with over 33,000 couples. Dr. Diane brings both science and compassion to a topic that’s often ignored in women’s health conversations.

Together, they explore how hormones, chronic stress, nervous system overload, and life transitions impact desire — and why low libido is not a personal failure, but a biological response. This is a girlfriend-to-girlfriend conversation designed to bring clarity, validation, and hope.

In this episode, they discuss:

•Why libido is often left out of the hormone conversation

•What it really means to feel “touched-out”

•How stress and exhaustion biologically suppress desire

•Why low libido doesn’t mean you don’t love your partner

•How shame and guilt disconnect women from intimacy

•Practical first steps to begin reconnecting with your body and desire

If you’ve been wondering where you went, you’re not alone. With the right support, intimacy and connection can feel accessible again.

In today’s episode of It’s Hertime, host Cody Sanders sits down with Priya Malani, Founder & CEO of Stash Wealth, for the honest, reassuring money conversation so many women have been craving — without the stress, shame, or overwhelm.

Money affects our nervous systems, hormones, relationships, energy, and sense of safety more than we often realize. Yet so many smart, capable women still feel anxious, behind, or unsure when it comes to finances. This episode is about changing that — together.

After becoming one of the youngest Vice Presidents at Merrill Lynch, Priya left Wall Street to help women and high-achieving professionals build wealth in a way that feels aligned, calm, and sustainable. In this conversation, she and Cody break down how to create financial confidence without sacrificing joy, lifestyle, or peace of mind.

If you’ve ever felt stressed about money, avoided looking at your bank account, worried about the future, or wished someone would just explain finances in a normal, supportive way — this episode is for you.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

•Why money stress quietly impacts hormones, energy, and mental health

•How to stop living paycheck to paycheck without feeling deprived

•What “living a life you can afford” really looks like in real life

•Simple credit card and saving strategies that actually work

•When renting may be smarter than buying

•How couples can communicate better about money

•Common financial mistakes women make — and how to avoid them

•How to start investing with confidence (even if you feel behind)

•What goal-based investing means and why it matters

•When it’s time to work with a financial advisor

Priya also shares how women can shift from fear and comparison around money to clarity, confidence, and trust — creating long-term stability for themselves and their families.

This is a conversation about feeling safe in your body, calm in your mind, and confident in your financial future.

Have you ever found yourself thinking:

“I’m eating well. I’m exercising. I’m trying so hard… so why does my body feel stuck?”

If you’ve been doing all the “right” things but still feel tired, inflamed, frustrated, or disconnected from your body — this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Katie Hardie, board-certified holistic nutritionist, performance psychology expert, and founder of My PEAK. Katie works with highly motivated, high-performing individuals — especially women — who are disciplined, committed, and quietly burning out.

Instead of telling women to push harder or try another plan, Katie helps them understand what their symptoms are actually communicating. Together, we talk about how to shift from fighting your body to listening to it — and how to respond in ways that restore energy, resilience, and trust.

This episode isn’t about doing more.

It’s about doing different — with clarity instead of guilt.

⸻

In this episode, we discuss:

•Why your body isn’t “failing” — it’s giving feedback

•The most common signals women ignore or normalize (and why that matters)

•Why disciplined, high-achieving women often hit a wall first

•How to tell if your body needs fuel, recovery, or nervous system regulation — not more discipline

•The difference between discipline and data (and how women get stuck in that loop)

•How to use functional testing as a guide — without fear or obsession

•Why recovery is essential for performance, not the opposite of it

•Where to start when you feel seen… but also overwhelmed

⸻

A reminder from this episode:

Your body isn’t broken.

It isn’t working against you.

It’s communicating — and when you learn how to listen, everything changes.

If this conversation resonated with you, consider sharing it with a friend who’s been pushing a little too hard — or leave a review so more women can find these conversations.

If you’ve ever been told “your labs look fine” while you’re sitting there exhausted, foggy, bloated, anxious, or feeling nothing like yourself — this episode is for you.

Today on It’s Hertime, I’m joined by Dyna Vink, a certified Integrative Health Practitioner and founder of Holistic Nutrition Lifestyle, for a candid, eye-opening conversation about why so many midlife women fall through the cracks of conventional medicine — and what actually helps.

Dyna shares her own perimenopause wake-up call: the symptoms that blindsided her, the frustration of being dismissed by doctors, and the moment she realized this couldn’t just be stress or aging. Through functional medicine testing, she uncovered hidden root causes that standard labs missed — and rebuilt her energy, confidence, and health from the ground up.

This episode is validating, empowering, and packed with practical insight for any woman navigating perimenopause, midlife symptoms, or that unsettling feeling of “something is off, but no one can tell me why.”

⸻

In This Episode, We Cover:

•Why perimenopause hits high-achieving women especially hard

•The emotional toll of being told “everything is normal” when it clearly isn’t

•How traditional medicine falls short for midlife women

•What functional medicine does differently (and why it changes everything)

•The surprising role parasites can play in fatigue, gut issues, and hormone chaos

•Detox myths vs. realistic detox foundations that actually support hormones

•The gut–hormone–brain connection and why gut health is non-negotiable

•Why optimizing your health is not selfish — it’s a professional investment

•The very first step to take if you’re overwhelmed and don’t know where to start
