The Fit Mother Project Podcast Episode 178 features a powerful and inspiring conversation with Lindsey Burwell, founder of The Patch Method. Lindsey shares her deeply personal health journey—marked by chronic illness, hormone imbalance, cancer scares, and motherhood—and how those experiences shaped her mission to help women heal at the cellular level.
Together, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi and Lindsey explore why blood sugar regulation and daily detox support are two of the most overlooked foundations of women’s health after 40. They break down how insulin resistance, liver congestion, chronic stress, and toxin exposure quietly drive fatigue, weight gain, inflammation, hormone imbalance, and brain fog—even in women who “eat clean” and exercise.
The conversation also introduces transdermal nutrient delivery as an alternative for women who struggle to absorb supplements due to gut or liver issues. Lindsey explains how patch-based delivery can support metabolism, detox pathways, cortisol balance, immunity, and perimenopause—while simplifying daily wellness routines for busy moms.
Key Takeaways:
Blood sugar regulation underpins hormone balance
Insulin resistance affects women long before diabetes
Chronic snacking keeps metabolism inflamed
Movement after meals improves glucose control
Liver health drives detox and thyroid function
Modern toxin exposure overwhelms natural detox pathways
Daily detox support matters more than short cleanses
Poor absorption limits supplement effectiveness
Transdermal delivery bypasses gut and liver stress
Cortisol balance supports energy and emotional resilience
Simple routines outperform complex protocols
Feeling better physically enhances motherhood and presence
