51. The Sleep Hormone Connection: Why Poor Rest Wrecks Your Energy, Mood, and Weight Loss (with Amanda Jeffres)

Improve Energy for Busy Moms | Gut Health, Hormone Imbalance, Fatigue, Moodiness, Bloating, Weight Loss

Hi Listeners!

If you’ve ever felt “wired and tired” or noticed your moods and cravings spiral after a rough night’s sleep, this episode is for you. Sara and Amanda break down how sleep directly impacts your hormones — from cortisol and melatonin to insulin, estrogen, and thyroid function. You’ll learn how missing even a few hours of rest can disrupt your metabolism, blood sugar, and mood, and how prioritizing deep, restorative sleep can reset your energy, focus, and weight-loss potential.

Together, they share practical, faith-based strategies to rebuild your sleep rhythm naturally. You’ll walk away with simple, actionable steps — like the best bedtime routine for balancing cortisol, what to eat (and when) for stable blood sugar, and how prayer, gratitude, and red light therapy can help your body finally rest and reset. Tune in and discover how better sleep could be the missing piece to unlocking your healthiest, happiest self.
