Oh, and don't forget to download my gourmet Meso-Meal


Dear Beautiful Women in Your Prime,

I’m Doc Mac — a retired doctor, lifelong life optimizer, and your coach for becoming the healthiest, happiest version of YOU in your Third Act.

After 45+ years of helping tens of thousands of people achieve their goals (and one short stint as a bartender where my greatest life lesson was always tip your bartender), I’ve cracked the code on lasting transformation.

Today, I’m sharing that code with you.

It’s called The HOPE Protocol — a life optimization system designed to help you optimize your hormones, weight, health, and mindset.

HOPE stands for:
Hormone Optimization
Optimal Nutrition
Purification Protocols
Enlightenment Coaching

Let’s take a peek inside the tool box:


🧬 Hormone Optimization

"We are nothing more than a reflection of our hormones."

Menopause doesn’t have to feel like a war zone. It’s simply a call to tune up your internal chemistry.

Over the last fifteen years, I discovered that most menopausal women face three main hormonal hurdles:

  • Estrogen Dominance (Hello, stubborn belly fat 👋)
  • Thyroid Conversion Disorder (Tired much?)
  • Stress-Related Cortisol Elevation (Anxiety on speed dial?)

Men have their own issues (low testosterone, mostly), but this is about YOU.

In HOPE, we start by taming estrogen dominance, because when that diva calms down, the thyroid and adrenal drama also settle. 🎭

Bottom line?
It’s ALL about the hormones.

"Master your hormones, and you master your body—and your peace of mind."

🥦 Optimal Nutrition

Did you know five diseases (cancer, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and Alzheimer’s) are knocking out most of us these days?

They all have a sneaky villain in common: chronic inflammation—caused mainly by eating engineered, human-made food instead of real, God-made nourishment.

The solution is stunningly simple (and delicious):
👉 Eat real food.
👉 Avoid processed junk.

In HOPE, I’ll show you how to use food to fight inflammation, balance hormones, lose weight, and supercharge your energy.

Warning: Side effects may include unsolicited compliments on how great you look. 😉

Oh, and remember we believe in eating gourmet meals.

Here is this week's Gourmet Meso Meal to Lose Weight and Feel Great!

"Eat real God-made food... if you want to stick around a while."

💧 Purification Protocols

Our modern world bombards us with chemicals that overwhelm three critical organs:

  • The liver (your toxin bouncer)
  • The gut (your body's "second brain")
  • The brain (your CEO of sanity)

First, we dam the upstream pollution.
Next, we purge the contaminants.
Finally, we patch the damage.

We start with the liver, because if the filter’s clogged, everything downstream is a hot mess.

From there, we rebuild your gut health and protect your precious brain—because clear minds and vibrant bodies are not optional after 50…they’re required.

"To heal, you’ve got to love the most wounded parts first."

🔥 Enlightenment Coaching

Here’s the uncomfortable (but liberating) truth:

Joy, health, and success are BUILT—not wished for.

Over the years, hanging around some of the world's greatest motivational minds (and sitting through more "rah-rah" conferences than I care to admit), I picked up the golden rule:

Self-discipline unlocks everything.

I’ll teach you a simple system:

  • Decide what you want to have
  • Choose what you must be
  • Map out what you must do

You don’t need more motivation—you need better systems.

And guess what?

Self-discipline isn’t about suffering; it’s about stacking little daily wins until your life feels like a joyful symphony instead of a chaotic circus.

🎯 By the end of HOPE, you’ll be equipped to live joyfully, mentor your loved ones, and leave a legacy they’ll treasure more than anything you could buy.

"Self-discipline isn’t sexy... but success sure is."

🌟 Ready to Take Your Next Step?

Menopause isn’t the end.

It’s the invitation to finally step into your full power.

If you’re ready to create a body, mind, and life you LOVE...

Let's turn menopause into the most vibrant chapter of your life yet.

Hope isn’t just a feeling. It’s a protocol—and it’s waiting for you. 💖

With fierce faith in your future,

Doc Mac


P.S. If you think you're "too old" to change, think again. You’re just getting started. The best is yet to come. 🌈✨

This Week's US-IE

Someone asked me what HOPE meant, and I realized I hadn't reintroduced the four strands in a while. So, I rewrote the introduction and decided to use a throwback Us-ie from about the time I last rewrote it.

Hi! I'm Doc Mac.

I have practiced hormone and weight optimization for over forty-five years. I retired 10 years ago; at least, that is what I thought. When I retired, my wife and I owned and operated several medical clinics specializing in hormone and weight optimization. We discovered that as a woman enters menopause, her hormones become disrupted, causing many women to gain weight rapidly, and no matter what they do, not be able to lose it. If that has happened to you, text me at 209-345-9799. I have found that those who text me are serious about creating the body they desire. Once I receive your text, I will find a convenient time for you to speak with me. During our conversation, I will customize a gourmet weight loss menu for you, and tweak it until it works. Our menus have no caloric restrictions or frequency of meals. There is no charge! 👍 Doc
