You're not alone. In this episode of Double Dose of Wellness, Andrea and Nicki explore one of the biggest misconceptions in women's health: the belief that metabolism simply stops working. Whether you've spent years dieting, exercising, counting calories, or wondering why your body isn't responding the way it used to, this conversation is for you. Together, we unpack what metabolism actually is, why your body is incredibly adaptive, and how factors like stress, sleep, muscle mass, hormones, nutrition, and aging all work together to influence your health. Rather than blaming a \"broken metabolism,\" we challenge you to look at your body through a new lens: one of understanding, compassion, and curiosity. In this episode, we discuss: What metabolism really is (and why it's much more than calorie burning) Why so many women feel like their metabolism has \"stopped working\" The important role strength training plays in long-term metabolic health Why calories and hormones aren't competing explanations: they work together How your body adapts to the environment it's been living in Simple questions to ask yourself before searching for another quick fix If you've ever felt frustrated, discouraged, or confused by your body's changes, we hope this conversation leaves you feeling informed, empowered, and a little more compassionate toward yourself.
