The Business of Menopause: Would You Buy This? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Business of Menopause: Would You Buy This? Menopause has become a full-blown marketplace, valued at $18.7 billion last year and expected to hit $28.8 billion by 2033. This week we're going through the pile: cooling pearls, menopause-specific protein powder, arousal oils, beef organ supplements, weighted vests, and yes, tickets to Menopause The Musical 2. We play a round of Would You Buy This and get into menowashing, the trend of taking a totally normal product, making it pink, slapping "men

The Whole-Person Approach — Guest: Dr. Talina Hermann, Founder of Optimized Human This week's guest is Dr. Talina Hermann, a functional and integrative medicine practitioner for women who built her practice after years of chasing answers Western medicine couldn't give her, first for her own health, then for her.

This episode is about what's left once that softening effect is gone, and the disorienting work of figuring out who you actually are underneath it. We read a Reddit post out loud that nails the shift: this isn't a transition, it's an identity collapse. From there we get into resentment, saying yes when we mean no, and what it actually takes
The Symptom List Nobody Handed You. Chin Hairs, Vertigo, Phantom Smells... Yep. All Menopause. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hot flashes. Night sweats. Mood swings. Yeah yeah yeah. We know those ones. But what about the vertigo that lasts a year and a half? The hip pain that shows up out of nowhere and will not let you sleep? Plantar Fasciitis. Frozen shoulder. The heartbeat you can suddenly hear in your ear? The phantom smell that makes you wonder if you are having a stroke? The chin hair you find that is somehow already an inch long? Nobody handed us a list. So we made one. In this episode Sara and Liz go deep on th
