Forged Over 40 is the podcast for high-performing men and women who refuse to accept slow decline. Hosted by Steve Didier, this show breaks down the real physiological drivers behind chronic fatigue, loss of edge, metabolic drift, hormonal shifts, and performance erosion in executives, founders, and operators over 40. No hype. No wellness fluff. No surface-level labs. Just clear, systems-based physiology so you can rebuild energy, sharpen focus, and sustain elite performance for decades.
Still Tired on TRT or HRT? Why Hormone Therapy Isn't Working
Your labs can look fine while your hormones still aren't doing their job. Steve Didier explains how SHBG, insulin resistance, cortisol, and circadian timing undermine hormone replacement therapy for women and men, including through perimenopause.

If your energy, sleep, mood, focus, or drive still haven't come back on HRT or TRT, the problem is usually upstream of your hormones. You'll learn the three things that keep undermining treatment (insulin dysregulation, a nervous system stuck in survival mode that sacrifices progesterone first, and broken hormone timing) and the three fixes that address them.
