Welcome to Nourish with Katrina: a podcast for women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s who are ready to understand what their bodies need at this stage of life — and how those needs are different from what they were a decade ago. Each episode explores the root-causes of the changes women experience during these years: fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, digestive issues, mood shifts, bone density, and more. Grounded in ancestral nutrition and lifestyle practices aligned with nature's rhythms, Nourish with Katrina gives women the knowledge, awareness, and insights they need for this season of life.
If you are a woman 40 plus and you've been feeling more bloated than usual — even though you haven't changed what you eat — this episode is for you. Does this sound familiar? You finish a meal and feel uncomfortable. Your stomach feels full and heavy. And you can't figure out what changed — because as far as you can tell, nothing did. In this episode we're talking about what may be happening in your body during perimenopause that could be contributing to bloating. How your hormones, your gut bacteria, your digestive enzymes, and your stomach acid all shift during this transition — and how those shifts may connect to the gas and bloating you've been noticing. And we'll finish with four simple things that may help — all with real research behind them. In this episode: Why bloating may increase during perimenopause — even when your diet hasn't changed Why heartburn and reflux during this time may not mean what most people think Four practical things you can try — none of which require a protocol or an overhaul of the way you eat This episode may resonate if: You've been bloating more than usual and you're not sure why You've been reaching for antacids and wondering why they don't seem to be helping You think you may be in perimenopause and you want to understand what might be going on in your body Share this with a friend who has been struggling with bloating she can't explain. The biology behind it is rarely talked about — and understanding it might give her a completely different way of looking at what she's been experiencing. Your next step: The free Protein Guide for Women 40 plus is a good place to go deeper. It's practical and written specifically for this season of life.

You lie awake at night with your mind going even when nothing is actually wrong. Little things bother you in a way they never used to.

In this episode you'll learn the specific biological reason this happens during perimenopause and the years that follow — and it goes deeper than hormones alone. You'll learn about the vagus nerve — what it is, what it does, and why it becomes less supported during these years.

What you'll learn in this episode: You'll understand the hormonal and gut connections behind anxiety during this season — and the one piece that ties it all together.

You are not imagining it. And it is not inevitable. In this episode, you'll understand exactly what is happening to your energy at the cellular level during perimenopause and the years that follow. You'll learn why estrogen plays a direct and surprising role in how efficiently your cells produce energy, what your mitochondria need to function at their best, and why the energy shift you've been experiencing has a specific biological explanation — and a specific biological response. What you'll take away from this episode: You'll understand why your energy feels different now in a way that goes deeper than sleep, stress, or a busy schedule. You'll understand the connection between estrogen, mitochondria, and cellular energy production — and why this is one of the most overlooked conversations in women's health during these years.

If you are a woman in your 40s or 50s who has noticed your memory slipping, your words disappearing mid-sentence, or a fog settling over your thinking that wasn't there before — this episode is for you.

In this episode, you'll understand exactly what is happening in your brain during this season of life — and why the sharpness you've always relied on can feel different now. You'll learn why estrogen plays a far bigger role in how your brain works than most people realize, what specific nutrients your brain is running low on during this season, and why the dietary advice many health-conscious women have followed may be making the picture worse. What you'll take away from this episode: You'll understand the biological reason behind the brain fog, the word-finding difficulty, and the inability to concentrate — and why this is not a permanent feature of this season.

This episode is for you if: You've noticed your thinking feels slower, foggier, or less reliable than it used to You're losing words mid-sentence or walking into rooms and forgetting why You've been told your labs are normal — but your brain is telling you something different You're in your 40s or 50s and you want to understand what is actually driving this — not just manage it Your next step: Nutrition is where the foundation begins — and your brain is one of the first places you'll feel the difference when you give your body what it actually needs.

If you are a woman in your 40s or 50s who has been to your doctor, had your labs checked, and been told everything looks normal — and yet you still do not feel like yourself — this episode is for you. You are not imagining it. And you are not alone. In this episode, you'll learn why conventional medicine so often misses what is happening for women in their 40s and 50s — and why that is not an accident. You'll understand how the medical system was shaped, where its limits show up most directly during this phase of life, and why a single blood test on a single day cannot capture what your hormones are actually doing. What you'll take away from this episode: You'll understand why your labs can look completely normal while your body is telling you something very different. You'll also understand the difference between normal ranges and optimal ranges — and why that distinction matters for how you feel every single day. And you'll leave with one concrete action you can take today to begin seeing your symptoms as a connected picture rather than a collection of isolated, unrelated experiences. This episode is for you if: You have sought help and left without answers — or with answers that did not fit You are experiencing fatigue, weight changes, mood shifts, brain fog, or disrupted sleep and have been told everything looks fine You are in your 40s or 50s and sense that something has shifted — but you have not yet found answers that actually make sense of what you are experiencing Your next step: Nutrition is where the foundation begins — and where most women experience their most meaningful early shifts.

For women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s — if your sleep has changed and you cannot figure out why, this episode is for you. You fall asleep fine. But somewhere between 2 and 4 in the morning, you are wide awake — exhausted but unable to get back to sleep. You have tried everything. And nothing has worked the way it used to. There is a biological reason for that. In this episode I explain the three overlapping changes that drive sleep disruption during perimenopause, menopause, and the years beyond — progesterone decline, cortisol dysregulation, and blood sugar instability — and why most standard approaches only address one of them. By the end you will understand what is actually happening in your body at night — and one thing you can do differently starting tonight. If this episode resonated, share it with a friend. It is the best way to support this podcast — and it might be exactly what she needs to hear.

If you are a woman in your 40s, 50s, or 60s — and stress feels harder to manage than it used to — there is a biological reason for that. This episode is for you. Here is why. Your nervous system is operating with less of the hormonal buffer it used to have. And once you understand that, everything starts to make sense. In this episode you will discover what is actually happening in your body that changes how you experience stress during these years — the hormones involved, why the shift happens when it does, and what you can do about it. If this resonated, share it with a friend. It is the best way to support this podcast — and it might be exactly what she needs to hear.

Something has shifted. You can feel it — even if you cannot name it yet. Weight that is changing despite nothing in your life being different. Energy that rest does not restore.

In this episode, learn what is actually happening — what perimenopause is, why its symptoms are so easy to miss, and why so many women go years without anyone putting the full picture together. If you are ready to start understanding what your body is telling you — this is the episode to begin with.
