The Thyroid-Skin Connection: What Your Skin Is Trying to Tell You with Jennifer Fugo - Ep. 105
2026/10/13
Dry, itchy skin. Persistent rashes. Hives that keep coming back. If you’re living with thyroid issues and struggling with your skin, you may have wondered: Could these things be connected?
In Episode 105 of Thyroid-Healthy Bites, I’m joined by clinical nutritionist Jennifer Fugo, MS, LDN, CNS, founder of Skinterrupt and host of the Healthy Skin Show, to explore the thyroid-skin connection and what your skin may be trying to tell you.
Jennifer shares how her own experience with debilitating skin issues inspired her work helping people with chronic skin conditions. We discuss the connections between thyroid health, eczema, psoriasis, and chronic hives, as well as her 16-point Matrix approach to looking beyond the skin for contributing factors.
We also dig into histamine overload, food allergies versus sensitivities, and why restrictive diets aren’t always the answer. Jennifer shares practical considerations for dry, itchy skin, her perspective on targeted supplementation, and why making peace with food and coming into partnership with your body matters.
In this episode, we discuss:
The thyroid connection to dry skin, eczema, psoriasis, and hives
Histamine overload and possible contributing factors
Elimination diets, food sensitivities, and when restriction goes too far
Practical care for dry, itchy skin
Nutrition, supplements, and stress support

Sustainable Weight Loss After 40: What Actually Works? with Ashley Fillmore - Ep. 104
2026/09/23
If weight loss feels harder than it used to—especially in your 40s, 50s, and beyond—you’re not imagining it.
In Episode 104 of Thyroid-Healthy Bites, I’m joined by sustainable weight-loss expert Ashley Fillmore, founder of Metabolic Fix and host of the Cheers to Your Success podcast, to talk about why midlife weight loss can become more complicated, and what a healthier, more sustainable approach can look like.
We talk about chronic dieting, metabolic adaptation, strength training, body composition, stress, sleep, perimenopause, hypothyroidism, and why doing more isn’t always the answer.
Ashley also explains her “repair, rebuild, results” approach, why preserving muscle matters, how to think beyond the number on the scale, and what women should know about finding the right support when they feel stuck.
In this episode, we discuss:
Why weight loss often gets harder after 40
How thyroid and hormonal changes can affect weight loss
Chronic dieting, undereating, and metabolic adaptation
Ashley’s Repair → Rebuild → Results framework
Why eating more and exercising less can sometimes help
Strength training and why muscle matters
Why too much exercise may work against you
Body composition vs. scale weight
GLP-1 medications as one possible tool—not the whole plan
How to find qualified, experienced support

FREE WORKSHOP: How to Make Healthy Habits Stick (Without More Willpower)
2026/09/17
Want healthy habits to finally feel easier...and stickier?
In this special episode of Thyroid-Healthy Bites, I’m opening up the Thrivers Club vault and sharing one of our members-only trainings with you completely free: The Relish Workshop.
The Relish Ritual is one of the 8 Daily Rituals of Thyroid-Healthy Living within my THYROID30® framework, and it focuses on how celebration, connection, identity, and small, consistent actions can help healthy choices become your “new normal.”
In this workshop, you’ll learn why willpower isn’t the answer to lasting change, how identity shapes habits, why smaller habits are easier to sustain, how celebrating small wins reinforces progress, why support matters, and how to recover from setbacks without starting over.
Note: Throughout the workshop, you’ll hear me speaking directly to Thrivers Club members since this is the original members-only training.

Why Do So Many Thyroid Patients Still Feel Terrible? with McCall McPherson - Ep. 103
2026/09/02
Your thyroid labs are “normal”… so why do you still feel exhausted, foggy, frustrated with your weight, or just not like yourself?
In this episode of Thyroid-Healthy Bites, I’m joined by thyroid and hormone health expert McCall McPherson, PA-C, founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, to explore why so many thyroid patients continue to struggle even after they’ve been diagnosed and treated.
We talk about why TSH doesn’t always tell the whole story, “normal” vs. optimal thyroid lab ranges, thyroid antibodies and Hashimoto’s, and why some patients do well on levothyroxine while others may need a different approach. We also dig into how to sort out thyroid symptoms from other health issues, the role of nutrition and lifestyle, why weight loss can be so challenging with thyroid disease, GLP-1 medications, and how to find a thyroid specialist who can help you get the care you need.
If you’ve ever been told “everything looks fine” when you most definitely do not feel fine, this conversation is for you.

A State-Based Approach to Thyroid Health with Dr. Eric Balcavage - Ep. 102
2026/08/05
We often think of health interventions as inherently good or bad. But according to Dr. Eric Balcavage, the better question is whether an intervention matches the current state of your body.
In this episode of Thyroid-Healthy Bites, Dr. Balcavage explains why an intervention has to match the physiology of the person receiving it. A body that's well-rested, adequately nourished, and resilient may respond very differently than one that's under chronic stress, under-fueled, or already struggling to adapt.
This is the foundation of what he calls State-Based Medicine—a framework that helps explain why the same intervention can help one person but backfire in another.
Together, we discuss:
What State-Based Medicine is, and how it changes the way we think about hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's
Why there is no one-size-fits-all approach to thyroid health
Why thyroid symptoms can persist despite medication
How stress, sleep, blood sugar, nutrition, exercise, and gut health influence thyroid physiology
When "healthy" habits like restrictive dieting or overexercising can actually increase stress on the body
Signs you may be under-fueling or placing too many demands on your body
The importance (and limitations) of comprehensive testing
If you've been searching for the "perfect" thyroid protocol, this conversation offers a refreshing new perspective. Instead of asking, "What's the best diet, supplement, medication, or treatment?" Dr. Balcavage encourages us to ask a different question:
What state is my body in, and what does it need right now?

Healthy Aging in Menopause & Beyond with Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum - Ep. 98
2026/03/25
For women living with thyroid issues, menopause doesn't just pile on—it amplifies everything. The two are deeply connected, each one making the other harder to manage. And when you're already running on empty, knowing what to do can feel out of reach without the right support.
Getting through this season of life takes more than information. It takes education, empowerment, and the kind of support that helps you not only know better, but DO better.
In Episode 98, I'm sitting down with Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum, Ph.D., founder of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, to talk about healthy aging in menopause and beyond. Because the right support really can change everything.
In this episode:
Why midlife often becomes a health turning point
The overlap between thyroid, hormones, and how you feel
Why "more willpower" isn't the answer (and what is)
The gap between knowing and actually doing
How health coaching supports real, lasting change
A mindset shift that changes how you think about aging well
Whether you're navigating thyroid issues, perimenopause, menopause, or just want to feel vibrant into your 50s, 60s, and beyond, this conversation is worth your hour.

Inside THYROID30: The Whole-Health System Behind the Cookbook - Ep. 97
2026/01/15
If you're living with thyroid issues and you’re confused, tired, inflamed, stuck, or burned out, this episode is for you. In this companion episode to my THYROID30® Cookbook, I’m taking you inside THYROID30: the whole-food, whole-health system I created to help Thyroid Thrivers build sustainable habits, reconnect with their bodies, and feel better for good.
We talk about why extreme approaches and chronic restriction often backfire, why gentle, consistent habits are the real needle-movers, and how the 8 Daily Rituals of Thyroid-Healthy Living form a grounded framework for supporting your energy, digestion, mood, sleep, and resilience.
THYROID30 is NOT a diet. It’s a middle path — a calmer, more sustainable way to nourish your body, rebuild trust with yourself, and create a thyroid-friendly lifestyle you love, that loves you back.
📘 UPDATE (Feb 3, 2026): The THYROID30® Cookbook is now officially available wherever books are sold! The pre-order bonus mentioned in this episode has ended, but you can learn more about the book—and how to participate in THYROID30 inside the Thrivers Club here:

The Work Behind the Work: 3 Emotional Shifts Every Thriver Must Make - Ep. 95
2025/12/03
If you’ve ever wondered why thyroid-healthy habits sometimes feel so hard, or why staying consistent is such a different road for those of us with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s, this episode is for you.
In episode 95 of the Thyroid-Healthy Bites Podcast, I’m taking you beneath the surface to explore the work behind the work: the deeper emotional and mindset shifts that quietly shape every part of the healing journey. These “submarine-depth” Thriver skills aren’t often talked about, but they’re the true engine behind sustainable, long-term change.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
The 3 emotional shifts every Thriver must make
Why perfectionism, comparison, and self-blame keep us stuck
The inner work that makes thyroid-healthy living feel easier and more natural
A personal story about how the “old me” vs. the “new me” handles stress, holidays, and life
Why these emotional shifts shape everything — from food and sleep to gut health and movement
This is the episode I wish I had when I began my healing journey ten years ago. Whether you’re just starting out, in the messy middle, or stuck on a plateau… know this: you’re not behind. You’re becoming.
Enjoy the episode!
