Description

#225: You've been told to "speed up your metabolism" with pills, teas, and calorie deficit, but what if everything you thought you knew about your metabolism (and weight loss) was wrong? Josie breaks down the truth about what your metabolism actually is, why it matters for way more than just weight, and the biggest myths keeping you stuck in cycles that don’t work. She explains what a healthy metabolism really looks like, how the wellness industry uses it as a scare tactic, and the everyday habits that actually support your metabolic health.


You'll learn: The “metabolic budget” and how your body decides where to spend energy, signs your metabolism may be out of sync, myths that are sabotaging your energy and progress, how to support your metabolism without obsessing or restricting, why “speeding it up” isn’t the goal, and what to aim for instead.


If you’ve ever felt tired, inflamed, moody, bloated, or just off in your body, consider this episode your no-BS metabolism 101.
