Yes! Thank you so much for this enlightening conversation! Although I was expecting to hear more about fasting and different diets, it was fascinating to learn how fasting and hormones are related. From there, the conversation about women's bodies and hormones unfolded in an amazing way and provided valuable insights into the broader context of women's experiences with their bodies. Lewis, as a man, sitting on the other side, not only listened and asked deep questions--but also opened the door for other men to learn more about the experiences of the women in their lives. The conversation was brilliantly conducted by Dr. Mindy and Lewis, nailing another discussion of greatness. I'm immensely grateful for this insightful and meaningful exchange. Thank you both! So Grateful to the School of Greateness❤

She talks about menopause extensively on her channel. Also, it's strange to listen to a man who can't cycle to ask these questions in an interview. I think it's great for them to learn, but I learn more when the interviewer actually has the experience lol A man can't relate.
Yes PLEASE! I'd love to have her talk about menopause next! Thank you Louis!
My biggest take away is fast at night and eat during daylight. I'm a menopausal 67 years old and YES I would like to know more about menopause and fasting.

I lost a lot of weight, almost 50 pounds, in 2023. I did it by intermittent fasting, walking 10k steps a day, taking supplements, getting enough sleep, lowering stress, and eating more healthy foods (salad, chicken, etc.) and less unhealthy foods (ex: 2 spoonfuls of ice cream instead of 2 scoops). I have hit a plateau now, though. Even when I take it down to one meal a day. I know I am in a calorie deficit most days but I am staying the same or maybe gaining a couple of pounds. I’m also concerned about how much hair is falling out. I’m a 43 year old female. I still get a 3-day period every 23 days. Never had any kids. One thing I know I need to do better is eat more protein and vegetables. I do take lots of supplements though. I’d love to hear about how to boost metabolism and more about the thyroid and other reasons I may not be able to lose the last 10-15 pounds. I’m 5’1”…started at 181 pounds, got down to 131-132, now I’m around 134. But I don’t feel like I can eat any less than I am now without crossing into an unhealthy space.
I would Love to hear MORE about our hormones in our Sixties ! PLEASE 😢
I've been a nurse for the last decade and you've changed my life and so many of those that I come in contact with. It is a ripple effect. I spent years saddened by the large scale "health" decline in us humans. Feeling stuck, not sure where to turn, and not really sure how I could help.. Your podcast has been my greatest teacher, friend, sleep machine, mentor, alley; it's whatever I need at that exact moment and it (you) have changed my life. I no longer work in the hospitals. Cause stress is bad Mkay? How could I when I can't stop talking about all micro adjustments people could prophylactically do to enrich their lives? My mom listens to you all the time; she saunas and cold plunges religiously. I know I will have her around longer because of you. With small changes I've been able to enrich the lives of my family, patients, friends, strangers, and myself. You've sparked that excitement to learn back up in many of is! You've had such a bigger impact on the world than is even imaginable. The gift you have to research, understand, translate, explain, and deliver to the masses is truly delightful and amazing. Thank you, Andrea RN

Hi, as a man, i did find this episode really educative about women and i would say we need that in our understanding because our society isn't interested to let us understand things and get better. A big yes for another episode if possible, Mindy is radiant and passionate and thats really interesting to hear her speaking. Thank you for this video and the way you lead this conversation.

This was amazing! Thank you so much ♡ I would love a second episode ASAP, please! I really appreciate how curious and open you are to finding out about the female experience, Lewis. It's so helpful, not just in the information you discover but in letting us know that there are men out there who genuinely do care about who we are as people. I'm grateful🙏
Love this! I’ve been fasting for the last 2 months and I’m grateful to know about I must take care of my hormones ! Thank you both if you! I would get Dr. Mindy book by sure Please invited her again !

Always a pleasure to listen to Dr Mindy, always something new to learn from her and put into practice in our lives, also I loved the 3 truths question and her answers too, thanks hope she will be coming back soon! Keep up the good work!
Initially i timed perfectly when i did fast like a girl. Eventually after getting to know my body n menstrual cycle the fasting has been spontaneous. Without having to check the clock i felt differences in my cravings & hunger. Not perfect yet but i definitely see a difference ❤❤❤
Love dr. Mindy! She is so positive, so driven and just amazing 💚💚

Yes we need a second episode. This was so insightful, I didn’t know how fasting can heal our hormonal imbalance. Just the fact that working out during the time of the month is great. Just the 11 days I believe it. I’ve been doing some of these things alone like if my body knows exactly that it needs a reset. This was just confirmation.

Amazing. Thank you. Would appreciate Dr. Mindy Pelz coming back to discuss aging ( menopause reset). ..still such a taboo subject. Ran out of time at this podcast to talk about this part of the cycle thus missed the complete womans hormone cycle. ❤
That was excelent. I Have Been worried about fasting my whole life. This deffinitely made me interested. Getting the book hundred percent 🎉🎉
Thank you so much, I am crying here. I discovered Dr. Mindy Pelz on Steven Bartletts podcast, got immediately hooked to her information, wisdom and energy, got her book and cannot get enough of her words and kindness and love. Most definitely my discovery of 2023, she has changed my life for the better.

Dr Mandy, I am a 49 years old, had perfectly healthy 3 boys who are currently 20yrs, 16yrs and 10yrs old. Never had a birth control phil in my life, however I have a husband who listens to me to have natural birth control with my cycle. I had my kids when I wanted them. More education to girls and our boys would make a big difference
Yes, we absolutely need a part 2!! This has got to be one of THE BEST episodes of yours!! So much knowledge and insights as to the how and why our bodies do what they do. Thank you for introducing us to Dr. Mindy. I am going over to her channel now 😊 I've always fasted, not 24/7 tho. I've listened to my body. This has brought a whole other level of awareness of the inner workings and the hormones. I have to share this with everyone. I could go on and on lol. Thank you Lewis and Dr.Mindy!

What an amazing video, thank you for sharing. My biggest takeaway is that I can control my PMDD by simply getting in alignment with my hormones. I've always felt like I have no control over what happens to me when they spike, now I know I can do something about it without the help of prescription medication. I also love how I can create abundance when I'm in hormonal alignment, thank you so much. I'll definitely be purchasing you book, thank you so so much xx

Fasting should be included to work to your lifestyle. If you love your nightly snack then wait a few hours in the morning, black coffee + herbal teas (and apple cider vinegar) are fine to hold you over and maybe get a workout in to boost that autophagy effect. Nothing is 'bad' if your body responds better. Moderate carbs before bed can assist with deep sleep, win win if your training in the morning

From her description, at age 45, Dr. Mindy was in Perimenopause not Menopause and the first hormone to decline is progesterone. The other two main hormones, testosterone and estrogen may or may not decline. It's different for each female. The three stages are Perimenopause, Menopause, and Post Menopause. I support whatever works for each individual. If IF works for someone, awesome. I fast when I sleep and it works for me. As for female hormone info, there is so much info out there and here in the podcast, so please be careful. ❤
