Protein Myths v. Facts with Holly Perkins

Kelly Lyons

Raise your hand if you’ve ever spiraled trying to perfectly track your macros or stressed about getting enough protein in your breakfast. 🙋‍♀️ Yeah, me too. But here’s the thing: protein is important, but not at the expense of your sanity (or your carbs). In this episode, I’m back with the amazing Holly Perkins to talk about why protein myths are keeping you stuck and what the science really says about how much you need. 

What to Listen For:

  • The biggest protein myths circulating on social media and the truth behind them.
  • How obsessing over protein can actually backfire
  • The ISSN-backed range of how much protein women actually need.
  • When you actually do need the higher end of protein intake (hint: not as often as you think).
  • Why carbs are not the enemy—and how pairing them with protein regulates blood sugar.
  • The connection between overeating, food obsession, and strict dieting rules.
  • Why strength training is a non-negotiable for women (and how carbs + protein fuel it best).
