Hi Reader, We talk a lot about money debt. Credit cards. Loans. Mortgage payments. But there’s another kind of debt most women with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s carry without realising it. Health debt.It creeps up slowly. The kind of slow that feels “manageable” day-to-day - until it isn’t. When your thyroid isn’t treated optimally (and let’s be honest… most of us aren’t), you’re quietly racking up costs:
Some of these costs are financialReduced working hours, lost income, extra prescriptions. But others? They’re the ones you feel in your bones:
That’s the interest on health debt.And the truth is - you will pay it one way or another. The only question is what kind of debt you’re willing to take on. I learned this the hard way.Years ago, I was on a long NHS waiting list for an ADHD assessment. Every month, the wait time got longer. I was burning out, dropping the ball at work, and on the brink of losing everything. So I made the uncomfortable choice: I went private. I put it on a credit card. It wasn’t an easy decision - I didn’t “have the money.” But that one choice has saved me far more than it cost - in income, in health, in sanity. That one decision turned my life around.I wouldn't be here writing this email if I hadn't made it!. But it makes me so sad when I see SO many women put themselves at the very bottom of their own priority list. Spending on everyone else first. Hoping their health “will just sort itself out.” But it won’t. And the longer you wait, the more expensive - in every sense - it becomes.So if you’ve been holding back from investing in the support you need… Ask yourself: What debt am I already paying - and what’s it really going to cost me? You deserve to feel well... With love and fire, P.S. We start the new 30-Day Hypothyroid Weight & Energy Challenge on Monday and this time you’ll have a unique AI Pocket Coach by your side!

Hi Reader, I want to talk about something I hear far too often from women with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s: “I’m over 50 now, so this is just my lot. It’s all downhill from here.” And you know what makes this worse? Doctors reinforce it. 😠 You go in feeling exhausted, gaining weight, or struggling to concentrate - and you’re told: “Oh, that’s menopause.”“Oh, it’s just your age.” As if that’s the end of the story. But it isn’t. The truth is: blaming age for thyroid symptoms is one of the...
Hi Reader, 💜 Today inside our community, the Hypothyroid Recovery Hub, we’re on Day 2 of the 7-Day Sleep Better Challenge - and we’re talking about something simple but powerful: sleeping like a cavewoman. Everything we do in this community comes back to living more like our ancestors – following an ancestral lifestyle that works with your body, not against it. 10,000 years ago, our ancestors slept in almost total darkness. Maybe just a flicker of firelight or a soft glow from the moon. That...
Hi Reader, Have you ever been told your thyroid labs are “normal”… yet you still feel exhausted, foggy, or stuck with stubborn weight? This is one of the biggest myths out there. 👉 Normal does not mean optimal. Doctors usually look at a wide lab range. If your number falls anywhere inside it, they say you’re “fine.” But most women with thyroid problems do not feel fine there. 😔 In fact, many of us still feel tired, cold, foggy, and heavy - even when our labs look “normal.” Why? 👉 Because...
