Welcome to the Metabolic Sync Protocol. You've made a real investment in your metabolic health — and over the next 6 weeks, you'll understand exactly why your midlife body changed and how to restore it. This isn't a meal plan. This is a clinical framework built specifically for the woman whose metabolism suddenly stopped cooperating.

Each week builds on the last. Don't skip ahead.

📅 HOW IT'S DELIVERED

One week unlocks at a time. You'll receive structured weekly protocols, personalized guidance based on YOUR dominant metabolic hijacker and direct access to Sheri for troubleshooting and support.

Your Metabolic Hijacker Audit (completed Week 1) becomes your clinical roadmap — everything after that is tailored to YOUR biology.

✅ TO COMPLETE EACH WEEK

Implement your weekly protocol → Track your progress → Engage in text as needed → Complete weekly submission form → Mark week complete

💬 Texting

This is a judgment-free, clinician-guided space. Share your wins, ask questions, troubleshoot challenges, and connect with women navigating the same transition. Sheri reads and responds to everything. 

🎁 YOUR PROGRAM INCLUDES

WEEK 1: FOUNDATION — IDENTIFY YOUR HIJACKER

The Metabolic Hijack

You'll identify which hijacker is running the show: cortisol, insulin, estrogen dominance, or adrenaline. Then we build your personalized roadmap from there.

What you'll learn:

• Why your midlife weight gain, sleep disruption, and brain fog are metabolic responses to hormonal chaos — not character flaws
• The exact foundation protocol that starts reversing insulin resistance, cortisol dysregulation, and inflammation within 7 days
• How to prepare for your doctor appointment (HRT advocacy begins here)

WEEK 2: PROTEIN ANCHOR — BUILD THE FOUNDATION

Your body is stuck in fat-storage mode. This week, we teach it to burn fat instead.

• Personalized coaching sessions (60 min/week, flexed to your needs)

What you'll learn:

• Why the old "eat less, move more" advice is sabotaging your results
• The exact eating strategy that works WITH your biology (not against it)

WEEK 3: ADRENALINE RESET — MOVE FROM SURVIVAL TO THRIVE

This is the week most women say: "I slept through the night for the first time in years."

What you'll learn:

• Why your body thinks it's in survival mode — and how to signal safety instead
• The exact cortisol protocol that stops 3 AM wake-ups, reduces anxiety, reduce cravingsand stabilizes mood
• Tools to eliminate spiking cortisol (progressive adaptation is key)
• Exercises to calm your nervous system and improve HPA axis function

WEEK 4: MUSCLE MULTIPLIER — BUILD METABOLICALLY ACTIVE TISSUE

Muscle is your metabolic currency. The more you have, the better your body uses insulin and burns fat.

What you'll learn:

• Why muscle matters more than cardio in midlife — and how to build it strategically
• How to start movement
• How to work around joint/muscle pain (which improves as you build strength)

WEEK 5: CLINICAL ADVOCACY KIT — BECOME YOUR OWN DATA ADVOCATE

You're done being dismissed. This week, you learn how to walk into your doctor's office as a data advocate.

What you'll learn:

• How to request the labs your doctor never ordered 
• The exact language to use when working with your practioners

WEEK 6: SUSTAINABILITY — THE FOREVER FRAMEWORK

This isn't a 6-week fix. This is the metabolic foundation you'll use for the rest of your life.

What you'll learn:

• How to identify your non-negotiables (which habits are ESSENTIAL for you long-term)
• How to build flexibility without derailing progress (travel, holidays, social events, stress)
• How to reframe setbacks as data (not failure)
• How to maintain your results for life — without rigid rules or restriction

🗓️ PERSONALIZED COACHING SESSIONS

60 minutes per week with Sheri, flexed to your needs:

• One 60-minute session
• Two 30-minute sessions
• Four 15-minute sessions
• Combination based on what YOU need that week

Delivered via:

• Text or email (voice notes, text, troubleshooting)
• Zoom (scheduled sessions based on your availability)
• Async support (Sheri responds within 24 hours Mon-Fri)

Can't make a scheduled session? Reschedule with 24-hour notice or shift to async support for that week.

🔓 AFTER WEEK 6

You'll receive your Metabolic Maintenance Toolkit — a complete sustainability plan including:

• Monthly check-in templates 
• Structured Eating Guide 
• Curated supplement and lab resource library 
• Custom doctor one-pager template 
• Travel & holiday adaptation guide 

You'll also be eligible for Founding Member pricing on the Sync Sustainer Membership ($49/month for life instead of $79/month) if you enroll immediately after program completion (by August 4, 2026).
