Midlife has a way of showing up without warning, and suddenly the habits that carried you for years stop working. That happened to me. My sleep vanished, my metabolism shifted, my stress tolerance bottomed out, and the only guidance I got was “welcome to perimenopause.” That moment is what pushed me to create the roadmap I couldn’t find anywhere. In this episode, I’m sharing the five frameworks behind the WellDrop Method and why so many of us are doing things in the wrong order. When you stop guessing and start tracking what actually matters, your body finally starts working with you again. You’ll hear how data, cycle syncing, upgraded daily habits, a healthier home environment, and an honest look at hormones come together to form the foundation most women never get. These are the exact steps that helped me feel stronger and clearer in midlife than I did in my thirties. If you’re tired of trial-and-error and want a system that finally supports the way your body works now, this is where to begin. We Also Discuss: (00:49) The moment midlife symptoms show up and how fast everything can shift (02:36) Why the right order matters more than the intensity of your effort (03:16) Tracking glucose, body composition and key labs so you stop relying on guesswork (06:04) How syncing with your cycle supports you through midlife shifts (07:25) The daily habits that calm cortisol and help you sleep again (09:41) The small triggers inside your home that disrupt hormones and energy (11:14) When to look at hormones or peptides and what needs to come first Thank You to Our Sponsors: Sign up for The Well Drop Newsletter Find out more about Amber Berger: Website: www.thewelldrop.com Instagram: @thewelldrop

Midlife can feel confusing when your body stops responding to the habits that always worked. You’re eating well, training, supporting hormones and still sensing shifts you can’t name. For this conversation, I am joined by acupuncturist and integrative medicine practitioner Deb Ross, who shares how those quiet changes built up long before she understood what her body was asking for. In this episode, we explore the emotional shifts that often show up first, why stress and hormones can feel identical and how pain or burnout becomes the turning point for many women. We also break down what Deb learned from wearing a continuous glucose monitor, the surprising foods that spiked her and how timing and protein transformed her energy, cravings and body. This episode is practical, grounded and full of clarity for anyone who has felt “different” lately and can’t explain why.

Have you ever wondered why your skin still doesn't look its best, despite trying every new cream and serum? The culprit could be hiding in something as basic as the water you use daily on your face. In today’s episode on The Well Drop Podcast, we join Leah Vairo, VP of Filter Baby to discuss skincare and toxic water. The impact of contaminants in tap water on skin health and aging is much more of an issue than you may think. We discuss the fact that tap water in the U.S. contains hundreds of unregulated chemicals and contaminants like lead, microplastics, chlorine, etc. due to old infrastructure and lack of updated quality standards. These contaminants can cause inflammatory skin issues like acne, eczema, dryness, and accelerated aging by being absorbed through the skin when using tap water for bathing, washing the face, etc. Leah shares her personal experience of how using Filter Baby's sink water filter improved her acne and overall skin health within a month. Not only do we talk about skincare, but we also highlight the importance of inner self-confidence and focusing on holistic wellness beyond just topical skincare products. Overall, this episode raises awareness about the overlooked impact of water quality on skin. Leah Vairo is an accomplished executive and certified makeup artist with more than 15 years of beauty experience. She has experience across brand building, marketing, product development, creative direction raising capital, celebrity endorsements, and retail distribution. As VP of Filter Baby, she focuses on growing brand awareness, collaborating with retailers and influencers, launching disruptive product innovation, and building empowered teams.

You’ll feel the “craving” for a cleanse, typically after summer, leading into fall. Time your cleanse with your cycle and the moon’s cycle. You don’t want to do a cleanse the week leading up to your cycle, because your body is naturally holding onto water during that week. Start a cleanse when your cycle starts or 5 days after.

A strong core is not just about physical health but also contributes to overall well-being. It can boost your self-confidence, improve body image, and enhance your ability to engage in physical activities you enjoy. What is diastasis recti? Julie Tupler is a registered nurse, certified childbirth educator, and certified personal trainer. She is the pioneer behind the TuplerTechnique®, a program designed to treat diastasis recti in women, men and children. Julie breaks down the common condition and explains how it affects everyone, regardless of gender, from childhood to adulthood. She joins podcast hosts Amber Berger and Dina Wizmur to share valuable insights into its connections with the pelvic floor and the importance of strengthening the transverse muscle. Her expertise shines through as she unveils the secrets behind diastasis recti and offers hope to those looking to heal their cores. How long does it take to resolve diastasis recti? Can it reopen after being closed? She addresses these questions and more, shedding light on the journey to a stronger, healthier core. Topics Discussed: Diastasis Recti Defined : Diastasis recti is a condition where the outermost abdominal muscles separate, and the connective tissue between them stretches sideways. It is not gender-specific and can affect both men and women. Diagnosis of Diastasis Rect i: Diastasis recti can be diagnosed by checking for a separation between the abdominal muscles and the condition of the connective tissue between them. Severe cases may lead to an outie belly button or a noticeable bulge when performing certain movements. Connection to Pelvic Floor : Diastasis recti is connected to the pelvic floor, and addressing one often involves addressing the other. Strengthening the transverse muscle can help with both conditions. Exercise Safely: Certain exercises, like crunches, can worsen diastasis recti if the transverse muscle isn't engaged. Pilates and yoga can be diastasis-safe if practiced correctly. Treatment Duration: The time it takes to resolve diastasis recti varies depending on its severity and the commitment to a treatment program. Significant improvement can be seen in as little as six weeks, but it may take longer for complete closure. Reoccurrence : Diastasis recti can reopen, especially if activities that strain the connective tissue are continued. Maintaining good habits and core strength is crucial. Co-management : Chiropractors and healthcare professionals can co-manage diastasis recti with Julie's program, even if they don't have time for extensive training. Connective Tissue Health: Strengthening the connective tissue is crucial for healing diastasis recti and supporting the core.
