A Breast Cancer Survivor's Guide to Hormones, Testosterone, and Thriving with Dr. Brianne Brandt Griffith (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I used to think breast cancer and testosterone belonged in two completely different conversations. Then my friend and colleague Dr. Brianne Brandt Griffith sat across from me and showed me just how tangled those two threads really are. Brianne has been on the show before, and every time we talked, we kept saying the same thing. That subject needs to be its own podcast. This time we finally did it. Brianne is an OBGYN, a breast cancer survivor, and one of the most honest voices I know when it com
The Data Bias That's Failing Women's Health (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How many times have you sat in a doctor's office, been told your labs are normal, and walked out still feeling like something isn't right. What if it's not you. What if it's the research itself. This episode is a little different. No guest today, just me, because this is something I needed to say directly. We're talking about the history of data bias in women's health research, why male bodies became the default in clinical trials, and what that has cost us. This isn't about pointing fingers or
What Wisconsin Gets Wrong (and Right) About Women's Health with Representative Angela Stroud (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today I'm stepping outside our usual conversation about hormones and habits to talk about something we don't often connect to menopause. Public policy. I sat down with Wisconsin State Representative Angela Stroud, who represents Ashland, Bayfield, and Douglas County. Before she was elected, she spent years as a sociologist studying the systems that shape our lives, and that lens changes everything about how she talks about women's health. This isn't about parties or politics. It's about what hap
Aging, It's Not About “Life Span, It's About “Joy Span” (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A year ago if you'd told me I'd be talking about my algorithm and asking for ratings and reviews, I'd have said you were insane. Today I want to ask you something different. Who are you becoming? We just wrapped our first ten episodes of The Healing Pause, and I am overwhelmed with gratitude. We covered the whys behind why we started this show, perimenopause and menopause symptoms, nutrition, hormone replacement therapy, pelvic floor therapy, strength training, bone health, heart health, financi
Ladies, Is It Ever Too Late to Learn About Money? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the missing piece in your wellness journey has been sitting in a junk drawer of unopened statements and unanswered questions? Today we are adding a fourth pillar to the conversation: financial health. I met Wendy Homstad, Senior Vice President of Investments at Raymond James Wealth Management, a couple of years ago at a LEAP event. I will be honest, I zoned out during her talk. Fast forward two years and I found myself neglecting my own financial health, so I reached out to her. That fir
