If you’re exhausted, foggy, gaining weight around the middle, sleeping badly, or losing your edge—and keep being told your labs are “normal”—this book is your missing roadmap. You’re Not Broken—You’re Unbalanced translates real clinical experience into a step-by-step plan to restore metabolic health, steady energy, deep sleep, better mood, and sustainable body composition for women and men who feel “off” and can’t get real answers.

You’ll see how hormone imbalance quietly shapes daily life in perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause, and andropause/low testosterone in men—and what optimal looks like, not just “in range.” Clinician and hormone specialist Travis Woodley, MSN, RN, CRNP, walks you through evidence-based bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT): when to consider it, how to dose and monitor it safely with a qualified clinician, and how to choose delivery methods that actually fit real life.

You’ll also learn how peptide therapy, gut health, and mitochondrial support can be used strategically—not as fads, but as targeted tools—to improve metabolism, brain fog, cravings, libido, and recovery. Sleep, nutrition, strength training, and stress are broken down into practical upgrades that work in the real world: small, sustainable steps that move both your labs and how you feel day-to-day.

Checklists, symptom-to-strategy maps, and real patient stories make the science easy to apply whether you’re a patient, a health and fitness coach, or a clinician looking for a clear framework. Use this book to ask better questions, design smarter treatment plans, and rebuild hormone and metabolic health in a way that lasts—so midlife becomes a launch pad, not a slow decline.
