EPI 88 - The Hidden Genetic Patterns That Shape Your Energy, Weight & Sleep

Hi friend — welcome back to The Habit Within! I’m Camille Kinzler, and today we’re diving into a topic that quite literally changed the way I understand my body, my energy, and the way I move through midlife: genomics.

If you’ve ever wondered why you’re exhausted even when you’re “doing everything right,” why weight feels harder to release than ever, or why your sleep has become unpredictable and shallow — this episode will blow your mind in the most empowering way.

Because here’s the truth:
You’re not broken.
You’re not undisciplined.
And you’re not imagining it.

Your genes hold a living, breathing blueprint — one that shows us exactly what your body needs in this season of your life to feel energized, lighter, clearer, and more grounded.

In this episode, I walk you through:

  • The three things almost every midlife woman truly wants (and why your genes can help you get there)
  • The major differences between ancestry tests like 23andMe and functional genomics
  • Why your genes are not your destiny — and how epigenetics lets you turn certain expressions on or off
  • How your genetic profile influences:
    • energy production
    • stubborn weight
    • detox bottlenecks
    • inflammation
    • cortisol patterns
    • sleep rhythm
    • gut repair
    • hormone pathways
    • micronutrient needs
    • and even what kind of workouts your body thrives on
  • What it looks like to walk through your results with a guide — instead of staring at a PDF wondering “now what?”
  • How I’ve personally changed my own routines, nutrition, and daily rhythms since getting my results back

This is one of those episodes that leaves you thinking: Oh… that explains everything.


Not in a doom-y way — in a deeply liberating way.

Because when you understand your blueprint, you stop fighting your body.
You start supporting it.
