Why Protein is the Wellness Powerhouse You’ve Been Overlooking

Be a Member Today!

If there’s one thing I’ve learned through working with women in every season of life—from busy moms to ambitious professionals—it’s this: most of us aren’t eating enough protein. And it’s quietly sabotaging our energy, our cravings, and our ability to feel really good in our bodies.

This month inside the Second Wind Insider Community, we are diving into the power of protein—not just as a macronutrient, but as a secret weapon for hormone balance, blood sugar control, and sustainable energy. 💪

So... Why Focus on Protein?

Here’s the thing: protein isn’t just about building muscle (although that’s an amazing benefit, especially as we age). It’s also deeply tied to:

• Hormone production

• Feeling full and satisfied after meals

• Reducing sugar cravings

• Stabilizing blood sugar

• Supporting your immune system

If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly snacking, dragging through your afternoons, or waking up already tired—protein could be the missing piece. One of my clients described not getting enough protein made her feel noodly. I totally get that but I also stress the importance of having all the nutrients not just protein because our body needs it all.

Most Women Are Under-Eating Protein (Without Realizing It)

And no, you don’t need to eat chicken at every meal or start counting grams obsessively.

But most of the women I work with feel a huge difference just by making a few small shifts: adding eggs to breakfast, tossing hemp hearts into smoothies, or swapping a carb-heavy lunch for something with more substance swapping grains like quinoa, or legumes like black beans and chickpeas. In my Coaching I recommend starting by recognizing at each meal what that consists of and adding in more protein.

Breakfast additions like eggs, greek yogurt, protein powder for smoothies

Lunch beefing up your salads with economical options like canned tuna, salmon or beans

Supper cutting back on your carbohydrates and eating 50/50 protein and vegetables

In our upcoming live training inside the Insider community, I’ll be walking members through:

• How to estimate your daily needs (without a calculator)

• Easy swaps and additions to hit your goals

• Meal inspiration and real food ideas

• Why protein matters even more during perimenopause and menopause
