‣ Take The Fat Loss Fix Quiz: https://1ck2gu1qfir.typeform.com/menometabolism

In this episode, Stephanie and Hannah dive deep into the gut-hormone connection and explain how your stool’s shape, color, and frequency reveal what’s really going on inside your body. From sluggish digestion that keeps your fat-storage pathways switched on to the telltale signs of poor bile flow or low stomach acid, they decode what your body’s trying to tell you — and how to fix it.

You’ll learn:

- What healthy poop should look like (and what your stool type says about your metabolism)

- How estrogen, bile flow, and gut bacteria shift during menopause- Simple daily habits to support digestion and fat loss (fiber, hydration, bile flow, stress reduction)

- When irregularity or stool changes may signal deeper gut or hormonal issues

- If you’ve been feeling bloated, sluggish, or stuck despite “doing everything right,” this episode will help you connect the dots between gut health and fat-burning.

🎧 Tune in now and start decoding your gut for better energy, better hormones, and better results.
