THRIVE Podcast by Carina Greweling
Welcome to the THRIVE Podcast — the sacred space for women who are ready to stop shrinking, start listening to their bodies, and live in deep alignment with their inner wisdom.
I’m your host, Carina Greweling — Gut & Hormone Coach, modern medicine woman, and guide for women reclaiming their vitality, sensuality, and voice.
Here, we blend Modern Ayurveda, functional medicine, and Eastern psychology with real talk about hormones, digestion, burnout, sexuality, and the nervous system. But this isn’t just another wellness podcast. This is about embodiment, not perfection. It’s about rewriting the story you’ve been told about your body — especially when it comes to energy, intimacy, and pleasure.

Protein Deficiency: Why You’re Still Feeling Off, Despite Eating Healthy
#62 In this episode, we explore why many women, even those eating clean and lean and a hormone-conscious diet, still experience hidden protein deficiencies — and how this affects their hormones, mood, metabolism, skin, hair, and menstrual cycles.
You’ll learn:
- The key signs and symptoms of protein deficiency
- Why protein is essential for hormonal balance, detox, thyroid function, stress resilience, and sleep
- How much protein you really need (especially during stress or perimenopause)
- The best protein sources (plant-based and animal-based) and how to improve digestion if protein feels hard to absorb
- How your protein needs shift across your menstrual cycle — and how to align your meals for better energy, mood, and balance
If you want to understand how protein shapes nearly every aspect of your vitality, this episode is for you. Tune in and give your body what it truly needs!
