10. Part 1: Peptides 101 - What, Why & How?!

This episode starts with a question: if you're doing everything right and still feel inflamed, foggy, and stuck — what are you actually missing? Dr. Mary Pines has spent years watching disciplined, motivated women walk out of doctor's offices being told their bloods look fine while feeling anything but.

The answer, more often than not, comes down to signaling. In this episode — Part 1 of a three-part series — Mary breaks down what peptides actually are, how they differ from hormones in the way they communicate with your body, why they're uniquely safe compared to most therapies, and the exact order she uses them with clients.

If you've been curious about peptides but don't know where to start, or if you've heard the Ozempic buzz and want the full picture, this is the foundation episode.
