For years, I was caught in the belief that if I wasn’t pushing myself to the limit in every workout, I wasn’t doing enough.

CrossFit, powerlifting, HIIT, endless hours of cardio—you name it, I tried it.

On the surface, it seemed like I was doing all the "right" things. I was sweating, I was insanely sore, I was checking the boxes. But deep down, something wasn’t right.

I was always inflamed, constantly battling hunger, feeling bloated, and noticing that I was puffy around the midsection. I was stiff, sluggish, and no matter how hard I tried, I didn’t feel athletic—I felt overwhelmed.

Looking back, I wish I had understood one important thing sooner:

👉 Yes, muscle is critical for health (especially women nearing or beyond perimenopause) but it can’t come at the cost of over-taxing your nervous system.

The key is to train intelligently rather than push ourselves beyond our limits, especially if it’s compromising our body’s ability to recover.

And that's where stress enters the pict...

The supplement debate continues with the question of the week: "Should I take creatine?"

Before we answer that, let's back up here a moment...

First of all, humans have built muscle naturally, without creatine or even protein powders, for millennia.

Whether it was lifting heavy objects, carrying food back to a dwelling, sprinting and hunting animals, or gathering plants and herbs, muscles developed from the movement required to survive.

Yet, in today's world, we're constantly marketed new supplements promising quicker, easier results.

Creatine is one of the most popular, often touted as a must-have for anyone wanting to increase muscle mass and strength. 

And now women over age 40 are being inundated with creatine ads which promise to alleviate perimenopause symptoms, including muscle loss, poor mood, and brain fog.

But it’s important to step back and ask, are supplements like creatine really necessary?

Sure, the studies say creatine is convenient, effective, and safe.

But her...

WHO THIS IS FOR:

Do you get caught in the drama of your relationships, even when you try not to? Do you respond from your anxiety instead of a more centered place?

Do you “just wish others would stop letting you down and do more?” Do you tend to rescue others and then feel resentment for having too much to do and not enough time for you?

Do you have recurring “angry” thoughts about others you wish you didn’t? Do you struggle to communicate in ways that get YOUR needs met?

Then this workshop is for YOU!

BENEFITS TO EXPECT:

An easy-to-activate strategy for transforming anxiety when relating with others like spouses, kids or co-workers.

Life-changing perspective on how you might be showing up or “landing” on others.

A way to find space in the noise of your brain and act with more mindfulness than from your triggers.

A framework that helps build the muscl...

The question we get asked most often is: "What supplements should I be taking?"

Today, we're going to answer that.

Here are the top five supplements that we find most effective:

1. Direct sunlight, especially in the morning. This produces a steady rise in cortisol, as well as dopamine, serotonin (which converts to melatonin at night), beta-endorphins, thyroid and reproductive hormones, electron flow for cellular energy, and more.

2. Complete proteins and natural fats. These provide essential amino acids and fatty acids in the perfect balance that nature intended, supporting countless processes in the body.

3. High-fiber, low-carbohydrate vegetables. Think of them as both nature's probiotics and prebiotics, creating a diverse microbiome that helps you thrive, prevents illness, balances blood sugar, and aids in the absorption of micronutrients.

4. Lifting weights and walking. Building and preserving muscle mass is the best thing you can do—not only for your physique but for longevi...

In today's world, it’s easy to get caught in the emotional rollercoaster that comes with politics, media, and society at large.

With so much division and drama in the air, it’s no wonder that many of us feel disempowered, controlled, and at the mercy of forces beyond our control.

But have you ever stopped to ask yourself: Are you in a codependent relationship with the government?

In our latest podcast episode, Breaking the Code: Reclaiming Personal Power in a System Designed for Control, we dive deep into this question, uncovering how emotional responses to political figures and governments can mirror the patterns of a toxic, codependent relationship.

In this conversation, we explore:

• The subtle ways the media, society, and even our upbringing can influence us to lose our personal power.

• How these toxic dynamics play out not just on a societal level, but in our personal relationships and health.

• Actionable ways to take back control over your life, mindset, and energy

Many of us are familiar with the concept of intermittent fasting, and while it can be effective for some in the short term at the right times, it’s important to recognize the potential downside of relying on this practice long-term, especially when applied first thing in the morning.

Humans are MOST insulin sensitive —able to digest food the best— in the morning and while the sun is up. So, skipping food is not a good idea for most people during this time.

As our client and friend Connor Pritchard shares in his conversation with us on the Elevated Frequency Podcast, his experience with fasting led to a cycle of energy crashes and disrupted sleep.

He would drink coffee all day, push through until 2pm without eating, then finally eat a large meal—only to fall into a food coma and feel lethargic for hours, leaving him struggling to sleep at night. The next day, he’d wake up and repeat the cycle.

So...

We want to share with you today why we've never confined ourselves to a niche and refuse to limit our mission to only serving a specific demographic.

It's why our name is The Green Door Life, not Nutrition Coaching and Strength Training for Burned Out 40-Year Old Hormonally Imbalanced Women, even though countless business coaches and social media experts keep telling us to shrink our audience for maximum profit.

But money is not why we do this. And we're too stubborn to limit ourselves because we know the power of our program extends to anyone, of any age, fitness level, biological sex, profession, family set up, access to gym equipment — doesn't matter, we can help.

And our main focus isn’t about helping others lose weight, even though that's often a natural result for those with that goal thanks to the monumental transformation they undergo in every pillar of health.

We aim to radically improve the health of generation after generation by empowering people, one-by-one, to reconne...
