Today, I sit down with Dr. Hannah Cabré, PhD, RDN—a researcher, registered dietitian, and exercise physiologist specializing in women’s health. From hormonal contraception to protein intake as we age, we break down the science and practical strategies you need to know. If you're an athlete, active mom, or just navigating women's health, this one's for you!

We cover:
-Protein intake & why it’s critical for women
-Supplements (creatine, calcium, vitamin D & more)
-Hormonal contraception & athletic performance
-Perimenopause, menopause & cardiovascular risks
-Should you cycle sync your workouts?
