## Resource

In this episode, I’m breaking down the basics of peptides, what they are, how they work, and why they’re suddenly everywhere in the health and wellness world. I explain the science in simple terms and share my personal experience using peptides postpartum, what I’ve noticed with sleep, energy, and appetite, and the questions I hear most often from moms about safety, breastfeeding, and effectiveness. This episode is an honest look at the science, the hype, and where peptides might fit in if you’re already focusing on the real foundations of health like strength training, nutrition, sleep, and recovery.
