Love at first hormone sight! In this episode, Gina sits down with Dr. Olinca Trejo to break down the hormone-weight loss connection in a way that just makes sense. They’re highlighting the key hormones that impact hunger, satiety, stress, and sleep—because let’s be real, your body is working with you, not against you. From the impact of being underslept to food noise, stress hormones, and even myth-busting exercise and cortisol, this conversation is packed with insights you don’t want to miss. Plus, they’re keeping it doable—because consistency, not intensity, is what creates lasting change.

Dr. Olinca is a licensed, board-certified Naturopathic Doctor in the province of Ontario. She also holds an honours degree in Kinesiology and has achieved her certification and internship in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).
