Hormone Health for Moms - Hormone balance, Insulin resistance, Boost Energy, Cortisol, Blood sugar
*TOP 2.5% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST*
Feeling exhausted no matter how much you sleep? Dealing with stubborn weight that won’t budge, unpredictable digestion, or energy crashes that hit hard, especially after having kids?
Do you feel like your body is working against you, and no matter how “healthy” you try to be, you’re still bloated, burnt out, and wondering what happened to the old you?
I’m Sara Moreira, nurse, functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, and mom of 4. After walking through my own journey of postpartum depletion, flatlined cortisol, and gut imbalances, I know what it’s like to feel dismissed, misdiagnosed, and told “everything looks normal” when you feel anything but.
For years I was stuck in the cycle of clean eating, supplement guessing, and chasing symptom after symptom until I discovered how powerful it is to work with the body, not against it.
Now I blend functional lab testing with ancestral rhythms, mineral balancing, and a faith-rooted, nervous system-supportive approach to help women restore their metabolism, digestion, and energy after having kids.
Inside the Hormone Healing for Moms Podcast, we go beyond quick fixes and diets to uncover the root causes of chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalances, bloating, hair loss, and weight loss resistance.
You’ll learn how to reset your circadian rhythm, balance your master hormones like insulin and cortisol, and nourish your body back to safety with simple, science-backed strategies rooted in both functional medicine and God-designed healing.
Each episode will help you understand your body on a deeper level so you can get real results that last without burning out or giving up the things that matter most. Because true healing isn’t just physical, it’s spiritual too.
Let’s redefine what it means to bounce back after kids and walk in the healing and wholeness you were always meant for.

In this episode, I’m joined by my client Sydney, who came to me with extreme, uncomfortable bloating that she was experiencing seven days a week. Even with a background in health sciences and a clean diet, she felt stuck, exhausted, and frustrated with her body.
Fast forward just three months into our work together, and Sydney’s story has completely shifted. She now wakes up with a flat stomach, only deals with mild bloating occasionally, and has significantly more energy and the best part is, she’s only halfway through.
We dive into:
What life looked like for Sydney before working with me
Why “eating clean” wasn’t enough to solve her bloating
The shifts that made the biggest difference in her healing
What natural healing looks like realistically!
How her energy and confidence have transformed in just a few months
Encouragement for moms who feel like they’ve “tried everything” without success
Sydney’s story is proof that when you address the root cause and support your body the way it was designed, healing and lasting change are possible.

Are challenges a “sign” you should stop pursuing your goals? For a long time, I thought so. But what I’ve learned — through my own journey, my faith, and my work with moms — is that challenges aren’t signs of failure. They’re often the very thing God uses to shape our character and prepare us for what’s next.
In today’s episode, I share:✨ A personal story of how my belief around “signs” shifted when I started living in Christ✨ A powerful Bible verse that reframes struggles as growth (James 1:2–4)✨ Why willpower isn’t the real problem when it comes to weight loss✨ The biological reasons diets and calorie-cutting backfire for moms✨ How to finally work with your body instead of fighting against it
If you’ve been blaming yourself for “failing” at diets or thinking you don’t have enough discipline, this episode is going to set you free.

If you’ve been stuck in a weight loss plateau, chances are it’s not your willpower—it’s your strategy. And when the scale doesn’t move, it’s easy to feel discouraged, less confident, and even start pulling back from the people you love most.
In this episode, I share a different approach to fasting—one that actually works for women. You’ll learn how to reset your metabolism without the extreme methods (like skipping breakfast or eating in tiny windows) that leave you more stressed, tired, and hungry.
I’ll walk you through 3 powerful fasting shifts that can help you break through a plateau, restore your energy, and feel like yourself again so you don't pull away from your spouse when he comes near you :)

So many women eat “clean” and still feel bloated, exhausted, and stuck. In this episode, I share the story of a client who realized her health struggles actually began after having kids—and how waiting decades to address them cost her energy and presence with her family.
I’ll uncover the 3 most overlooked habits that could be keeping you from feeling light, energized, and vibrant—no matter how clean your diet is:
Why chewing your food properly matters more than you think
How eating in a stressed, rushed state keeps your gut shut down
Why lacking digestive enzymes and diversity in meals is slowing you down
And, if you’re ready to finally balance your hormones and feel vibrant again—not just lose weight, but reclaim energy for yourself and your family—I’d love to invite you to my upcoming Weight Loss & Energy Workshop.
