🌿 TENNESSEE — I’m looking for 3 people!

Are you tired ALL the time?
Can’t sleep?
Struggling with anxiety or depression that doesn’t feel well controlled?
Doing all the ā€œrightā€ things but still can’t lose weight?
Never quite sure what your bowels are going to do from one day to the next?

Or maybe you’ve simply reached the point where you know you don’t feel like yourself anymore — and you want to understand WHY.

JM3 Wholelife Wellness is growing in Tennessee, and I’m excited to launch something brand new:

The JM3 Tennessee Ambassador Program. 🌿

I’m looking for 3 people in Tennessee who are ready to dig deeper into their health, experience the JM3 functional medicine process, and share pieces of their journey along the way.

As a Founding JM3 Tennessee Ambassador, you’ll receive:

✨ An exclusive Founding Ambassador rate on JM3 professional services — grandfathered in long-term
✨ 30% off your first Fullscript supplement order
✨ 15% off subsequent supplement orders during your ambassador term
✨ JM3 gear

In return, I’m asking my ambassadors to share pieces of their experience on social media approximately twice a month.

I’m not looking for scripted advertisements or people with thousands of followers.

I want real people sharing a real journey — what you’re learning about your body, the changes you’re making, the wins, the challenges, and what it actually looks like to dig deeper and figure out what may be driving the way you feel.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.

That’s kind of the point. šŸ’š

Interested in becoming one of my 3 Founding Tennessee Ambassadors?

This is my brain during a 3-mile run. šŸ˜‚

Saturday has become my running day.

3 miles.

Is that an impressive distance? Nope. But it’s where I’m at right now—and every Saturday my brain seems to follow the exact same pattern.

Mile 0–1:
This is not fun.
I don’t feel like doing this.
My legs are sore from lifting.
Why did I decide running was a good idea?
How am I ONLY at .6 miles?! šŸ˜‚

Mile 1–2.5:
Okay…here we go.

My body is warm. I’ve settled into my pace. My breathing feels good.

And once my brain finally stops obsessing over the fact that I don’t want to run…I actually start enjoying it.

Then the ideas start.

I’m a dreamer. And there is something about this part of a run that lets my mind wander. This is where some of my biggest ideas happen. I dream them up while I’m moving…and later I figure out how the heck I’m going to execute them.

Mile 2.5–3:
Okay. I’m ready to be done now. šŸ˜‚

My body starts hurting again. Breathing gets a little more labored. I’m checking the distance WAY too often.

3.0 miles. DONE.

And suddenly?

Euphoria.

I feel amazing. I’m proud of myself. My head is clear. And I feel ready to conquer the day.

Funny how many things in life are like that.

The hardest part isn’t always doing the thing.

Sometimes it’s getting through that first mile when your brain is giving you 47 reasons to quit.

And THAT is why I keep showing up on Saturdays. šŸ’Ŗ

šŸ“š FROM MY LIBRARY TO YOURS

I am REALLY enjoying Natural Hormone Balance for Women by Uzzi Reiss, MD.

What I love most? It explains what hormone imbalance can actually feel like in everyday life.

Meet Sarah. She’s exhausted, forgetful, not sleeping, her joints ache and suddenly she’s waking up drenched in sweat.
āž”ļø Low estrogen?

Meet Katie. The week before her period she’s anxious, irritable, can’t relax, her breasts hurt and her periods are getting heavier.
āž”ļø Low progesterone?

Meet Lisa. She’s bloated, retaining water, her breasts are swollen and tender, periods are heavier and she’s noticeably more impatient and snappy.
āž”ļø Estrogen dominance?

Meet Amy. She works out but doesn’t feel as strong. She’s losing muscle tone, her energy and stamina are down and her s*x drive has disappeared.
āž”ļø Low testosterone?

THIS is why I love this book. It helps women connect the dots between how they feel and what may be happening hormonally.

It also does a great job explaining bioidentical vs. synthetic hormones and why understanding the difference matters.

If you just read one of those women and thought, ā€œWait…that sounds like me,ā€ this may be a book for you.

"I can’t sleep.ā€

For a lot of people, the next thought is:

Maybe I need magnesium.

And listen—I LOVE magnesium. It’s incredibly important and can absolutely support relaxation and sleep.

But when someone tells me they aren’t sleeping…

Magnesium isn’t where my mind goes first.

I want to know WHY your body isn’t sleeping.

First, I want to see the rhythm of your cortisol.

Cortisol should naturally be at its lowest at night when you’re getting ready to sleep.

But cortisol is also one of our major stress hormones. When your body perceives a threat—whether that stress is emotional, metabolic, inflammatory or physiologic—cortisol can rise as part of that response.

So if your cortisol is elevated at bedtime?

It’s like your body has volunteered for overnight watch duty in the Hunger Games.

You’re asking it to relax and sleep while it’s getting signals that say:

Stay alert. Something might be coming.

And then I’m looking at your gut.

Because an inflamed gut isn’t just a digestive problem.

Inflammation can push more tryptophan down the kynurenine pathway, potentially leaving less available for serotonin production.

Why does that matter for sleep?

Tryptophan → serotonin → melatonin. šŸŒ™

So now we have another possible reason your sleep machinery isn’t working the way it should.

This is why I don’t hear ā€œI can’t sleepā€ and immediately reach for a sleep supplement.

I want to know:

What is keeping your body from being able to sleep in the first place?

Because magnesium may help you relax.

But if your cortisol rhythm is off or your body is dealing with an inflammatory stressor, we need to address WHY.

I really didn’t feel like moving this morning.

But I made myself get outside anyway.

3 miles. ā˜€ļø And I feel SO much better than I did when I started.

Sometimes we wait until we feel motivated to move—but sometimes the energy comes after we start.

It’s beautiful outside this morning. Get out there. Walk. Move your body. Soak up some sunshine and fresh air.

I promise you’ll be glad you did. ā¤ļø

Happy Saturday!

šŸ‘ Can we give Brittney a little shout-out?!

The first photo is summer 2025.
The second is this summer.

Brittney and I started working together in May, and she is absolutely CRUSHING it.

We train together for just 30 minutes once a week. We’ve also been working on supporting her adrenal health, and she has now moved into the next phase of her program—addressing yeast overgrowth and gut health.

But here’s the part I really want to celebrate:

I can provide the tools. I can build the plan. I can educate, guide and adjust along the way.

But my patients have to execute.

And Brittney is doing that beautifully. šŸ‘

She is putting in the work outside of those 30 minutes with me. She is being consistent. She is following through.

And you can SEE that her hard work is paying off. šŸ”„

So proud of you, Brittney. Keep going. ā¤ļø

08/19/2026

šŸ’¦ Why is SWEATING part of my adrenal protocol?

When I’m working on adrenal health, I’m not just thinking about cortisol.

I’m thinking about everything creating stress in the body.

Inflammation is a physiological stressor. And certain environmental exposures can contribute to oxidative stress and inflammation—adding to the overall load our bodies have to manage.

And when the body perceives stress?

šŸ‘‰ The HPA axis responds—and cortisol is part of that response.

That’s why adrenal health isn’t simply about trying to ā€œlower cortisol.ā€ It’s about reducing the total stress burden on the body.

And one habit I encourage?

šŸ’¦ SWEAT.

Your liver and kidneys do most of the detoxification work, but small amounts of certain compounds can also be eliminated through sweat.

So movement that makes you sweat—or sauna when appropriate—can be one small piece of supporting your body’s natural detoxification AND your adrenal health.

Adrenal health isn’t just about cortisol. It’s about asking WHY your body is under so much stress in the first place.

And judging by this picture…I definitely checked the sweating box today. šŸ˜‚šŸ’¦

Who else looks like this after a workout?!

08/17/2026

Working out consistently…but your body isn’t responding like it used to?

You’re putting in the effort.

You’re lifting. You’re walking. You’re trying to eat well.

But you’re exhausted, recovery takes longer, and the progress you would expect from all that work just isn’t happening.

This is something I see with adrenal dysfunction.

When your body is under prolonged stress, it can become less efficient at using fat for fuel and rely more heavily on glucose and amino acids for energy.

And where can those amino acids come from?

šŸ‘‰ Muscle tissue
šŸ‘‰ The proteins that support tissues throughout the body, including the gut

Instead of being in a state where you’re efficiently building and repairing, your body can shift toward a more catabolic — breaking down — state.

Think about what that means for your workouts.

You’re going to the gym trying to BUILD muscle…

while your physiology may be making it harder to build, recover and adapt to that exercise.

No wonder you’re tired.

No wonder recovery feels harder.

No wonder it becomes difficult to stay motivated when the results don’t seem worth the effort you’re putting in.

And here’s something people don’t always want to hear:

More exercise isn’t necessarily the answer.

When your body is already struggling to recover, certain types or amounts of exercise may add even more stress.

Sometimes we need to change the type, intensity and frequency of exercise while we work on restoring the systems underneath it.

I call this exercise resistance.

You’re not necessarily lacking discipline.

Your body may simply need a different strategy right now.

And THIS is one of the reasons I talk so much about adrenal health.

Have you ever gone through a period where you were working out harder…but seeing fewer results?

This was our COVID purchase. šŸ˜‚

When the gyms reopened, we really didn’t want to work out in a mask…so we bought a Peloton.

And yes — years later, it still gets used! šŸ™Œ

But now I’m curious…

Did you buy any workout or wellness equipment during COVID?

A Peloton? Treadmill? Weights? Yoga equipment? Something else?

And the bigger question…do you still use it? šŸ‘€

If the answer is no, here’s my little Saturday challenge for you:

Dust it off. Pull it out. Turn it on.

Even if it’s only for 10 minutes today.

You already own it. Might as well put it to work. šŸ˜‰

Tell me what you bought ā¬‡ļø
