Mickey Trescott, MSc, is an author, nutrition professional, and one of the pioneers who helped build the Autoimmune Protocol community from the ground up.

For women living with thyroid issues, menopause doesn't just pile on—it amplifies everything. The two are deeply connected, each one making the other harder to manage. And when you're already running on empty, knowing what to do can feel out of reach without the right support.

Getting through this season of life takes more than information. It takes education, empowerment, and the kind of support that helps you not only know better, but DO better.

In Episode 98, I'm sitting down with Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum, Ph.D., founder of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, to talk about healthy aging in menopause and beyond. Because the right support really can change everything.

In this episode:

• Why midlife often becomes a health turning point
• The overlap between thyroid, hormones, and how you feel
• Why "more willpower" isn't the answer (and what is)
• The gap between knowing and actually doing
• How health coaching supports real, lasting change
• A mindset shift that changes how you think about aging well

Whether you're navigating thyroid issues, perimenopause, menopause, or just want to feel vibrant into your 50s, 60s, and beyond, this conversation is worth your hour.

If you're living with thyroid issues and you’re confused, tired, inflamed, stuck, or burned out, this episode is for you. In this companion episode to my THYROID30® Cookbook, I’m taking you inside THYROID30: the whole-food, whole-health system I created to help Thyroid Thrivers build sustainable habits, reconnect with their bodies, and feel better for good.

We talk about why extreme approaches and chronic restriction often backfire, why gentle, consistent habits are the real needle-movers, and how the 8 Daily Rituals of Thyroid-Healthy Living form a grounded framework for supporting your energy, digestion, mood, sleep, and resilience.

THYROID30 is NOT a diet. It’s a middle path — a calmer, more sustainable way to nourish your body, rebuild trust with yourself, and create a thyroid-friendly lifestyle you love, that loves you back.

📘 UPDATE (Feb 3, 2026): The THYROID30® Cookbook is now officially available wherever books are sold! The pre-order bonus mentioned in this episode has ended, but you can learn more about the book—and how to participate in THYROID30 inside the Thrivers Club here:
