Today we meet psychoanalyst Dr. Michael Bader who uncovers the mental blocks that silently shut down arousal in midlife and the surprising psychological technique that can actually bring your spark, and your erotic groove, back online. We cover: · Why arousal is actually a psychological act of safety · The feelings that come up that shut down libido · Why fantasies are safety mechanisms, not guilty pleasures · The real reason long-term relationships can erode desire · How menopause and cultural pressures create a unique bind for midlife women Dr. Michael Bader is a psychologist and psychoanalyst with over four decades of clinical experience, known for his pioneering work on the psychology of desire, intimacy, and sexual fulfillment. He is the author of the influential book Arousal: The Secret Logic of Sexual Fantasies, where he unpacks the hidden emotional and psychological meanings behind sexual fantasy and why it plays such a powerful role in human arousal. Dr. Bader blends clinical depth with a refreshingly accessible style, helping people understand how unconscious fears, early experiences, and emotional dynamics shape their erotic lives. His work challenges shame, reduces stigma, and offers a compassionate, science-informed framework for sexual well-being. Beyond his clinical practice, Dr. Bader has served as a consultant, teacher, and writer on topics ranging from sexuality to social psychology, and he's widely respected for bridging the gap between psychological theory and everyday struggles around intimacy, pleasure, and connection.

Do you feel there's more and more emotional distance between you and your partner? Are you struggling to keep up with intimacy and romance and maybe even losing that connection you once had? Then this episode is for you. Today we meet OBGYN and sexual medicine specialist Dr. Maria Sophocles, who sheds light on what she calls "The Bedroom Gap." This gap describes the mismatch in desire, expectations, and physical ability between partners, especially as we age and go through menopause. We also cover: How hormonal changes, body image, and relationship dynamics intersect The biopsychosocial approach to sexual health — and why focusing on only hormones or meds isn't enough Practical strategies to improve communication and connection with your partner The role of estrogen, testosterone, and when to use FDA-approved treatments How to find ethical and effective sexual health professionals, from pelvic floor therapists to certified sex therapists, she rattled off some great resources, so get out your pen and paper. Why older women often rediscover pleasure and confidence once shame and societal pressure fade away Dr. Maria Sophocles has spent 30 years as a gynecologist and public advocate for women's health. Her mission to close the gendered healthcare gap inspired her viral TED talk and her book called The Bedroom Gap. She fought for 7 years for the creation of legislation providing access to contraception in New Jersey. Her Princeton clinic and virtual practice serves 30,000 women in the US and globally. She is currently working on a documentary about sex and menopause and developing a health clinic in rural Kenya.

Dr. Elena Gross is a neuroscientist, PhD in clinical research and most importantly - a former chronic migraineur. The lack of tolerable and efficacious treatment options for migraine led her to pursue a MSc in Neuroscience at the University of Oxford and a PhD in Clinical Research at the University of Basel, with the goal of having a better understanding of this common and debilitating disease and ultimately improving clinical care. I am particularly passionate about the therapeutic benefits of ketosis and other nutritional interventions, the role of mitochondrial functioning and energy metabolism in brain health & neurological diseases (particularly migraine), as well as increasing our health span via disease prevention. She is the inventor of four patents, founder & CEO of KetoSwiss and Brain Ritual. Her migraine research papers have been published in high-ranking journals.

Are you taking a bone supplement to improve your DEXA bone density score? Did you hear that strontium, a molecule found in some bone supplements, may increase risk of heart attack and blood clotting? I did! And that freaked me out. So, what did I do? Contacted my bone doctor bestie Dr. Doug Lucas to sort this all out. Dr Doug Lucas is a leading osteoporosis and bone health specialist who gives us clarity in this short episode, especially if you're taking AlgaeCal or considering adding strontium to your routine. We cover: · If strontium falsely inflates DEXA scores · The difference between strontium ranelate and strontium citrate · Do they really lower fracture risk · What's more important? Bone quality or bone density? · Which scans can show bone strength? · What happens when we stop strontium · What women should actually focus on for fracture prevention Dr. Doug Lucas is a leading expert in osteoporosis and longevity medicine. As a double board-certified physician and founder of The OsteoCollective, he helps people—especially midlife women—reverse bone loss, optimize hormones, and reclaim strength and vitality through an evidence-based, root-cause approach. His message: osteoporosis is not a life sentence, and conventional medicine isn't your only option. Dr. Doug left his career as an orthopedic surgeon after becoming frustrated with a system that waited until bones were broken before taking action. Now, he's on a mission to teach people how to take control of their health before disease sets in. Whether he's speaking on bone health, functional medicine, or aging with intention, Dr. Doug delivers clear, relatable, science-backed insights your audience will remember—and act on.

Today, I'm giving you a full roadmap of non-hormonal symptom relief, built from research and real-world experience. We'll cover why some women can't or don't take HRT, why some still struggle even when they do, and what tools you can use whether you're hormone-free, hormone-curious, or hormonally supplemented but still not completely supported.

Were you told to "wait and see" after a DEXA bone screening or have you ever felt confused about what your T-score actually means, then this episode is for you? Today I am joined by two of the most respected bone health experts in the world, Dr. John Neustadt and Dr. Doug Lucas, to clear up the most misunderstood parts of bone loss in midlife. We cover How and why women in menopause should get bone density testing and how to actually understand what this means. Does estrogen really protect bones? Why are people having fractures despite good bone density scores without osteoporosis and vice versa. What are alternative screenings and how they compare to DEXA The downsides of bone screening and how to approach your bone health no matter if you have osteoporosis or not What the research supports for improving bone density and what supplements we may need to consider. We talk about the more important form of vitamin K and strontium What we need to know about that scary 30% of people die within a year of a hip fracture stat And so much more Dr. Doug Lucas I already mentioned that Dr. Doug Lucas is a leading expert in osteoporosis and longevity medicine. He really is. He is a double board-certified physician and founder of The OsteoCollective. This is an incredible community he has created where he helps people—especially midlife women—reverse bone loss, optimize hormones, and reclaim their strength and vitality through an evidence-based, root-cause approach. Dr. Doug is in the functional medicine space. And he has a special message for you: osteoporosis is not a life sentence, and conventional medicine isn't your only option. Remember that. Osteoporosis is not a life sentence, and conventional medicine isn't your only option. We've spoken in past episodes about how he left his career as an orthopedic surgeon after became so frustrated with a system that just waited until bones were broken before taking action. Now, he's on a mission to teach people how to take control of their health before disease sets in. He is such an incredible speaker and really delivers clear message that is relatable, and gives science-backed insights that we all can understand and act on.

Do you live with type 1 diabetes and finding that menopause is different for you? Or do you just want to learn more about the differences of type 1 and type 2? Then this episode is for you. Today's guest, Melissa Slemp, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when she was only 14 years old back in 1982, when managing the condition looked very different.

If you've started hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and you're not feeling great right away, don't panic. You're not broken, and your hormones aren't either.

Ever wondered how women like Kris Jenner seem to age in reverse – and what's really going on behind those flawless "facelifts"? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Carolyn Chang, one of San Francisco's top plastic surgeons, to break down what's fact, what's finesse, and what's just good timing. From menopause to maintenance, Dr. Chang pulls back the curtain on how aging really works, and why starting earlier might actually be the key to aging gracefully. If you've ever debated a little "tweak" or simply want to understand the science of facial rejuvenation, this one's for you. In this episode, we cover: Kris Jenner's latest facelift - what was really done (and why it worked). Why early intervention can lead to more natural, lasting results. How genetics, lifestyle, and maintenance all shape how we age. The powerful role of estrogen and menopause in facial aging. Top non-surgical treatments to refresh skin texture, tone, and elasticity. What to know before going under the knife and how AI and robotics are shaping the future of aesthetic surgery. Dr. Carolyn Chang is a board-certified aesthetic plastic surgeon based in San Francisco and is known as one of the nation's leading experts in natural-looking facial rejuvenation, including the deep plane facelift, complex breast surgery, and body contouring tailored to post-menopausal and post-pregnancy changes. Every year she makes it to Castle Connolly's Best Doctors list, and her work has been widely featured in the media. You probably already came across her work. Harper's Bazaar named her to its Hot List of the 24 Best Beauty Surgeons in the country, and W Magazine recognized her as a top surgeon for revisional work. She's been on shows like The Doctors, CNN, and National Geographic, and has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, and The New Yorker.

Ever feel stuck in "fight or flight" mode no matter how much you meditate, sleep, or eat well? You're not alone, your vagus nerve might be the missing link. This powerful nerve connects your brain to nearly every organ in your body and influences everything from mood and inflammation to digestion and hormones. Today, I'm joined by "The Vagus Nerve Doc", a functional medicine expert Dr. Navaz Habib to decode the science of the vagus nerve and show you how to strengthen it naturally for better resilience, hormone balance, and longevity. In this episode we dive into: What the vagus nerve really does and why it's key to your "rest and digest" response How chronic stress keeps your immune system stuck in inflammation mode The 4 types of stress that quietly sabotage vagus nerve function Why heart rate variability (HRV) is the ultimate measure of nervous system health The "VAGUS" protocol to optimize brain-body communication and lower inflammation How mindset, breath work, and nutrition support vagus nerve function during menopause Dr. Navaz Habib, aka "The Vagus Nerve Doc," is a best-selling author of 2 books - "Activate Your Vagus Nerve" and "Upgrade Your Vagus Nerve" and host of The Health Upgrade Podcast. After using functional medicine to overcome his own health challenges, Dr. Habib built Health Upgraded, an online health program implementing his VAGUS protocol, to guide parents and professionals to enhance their health by unlocking the healing power of the Vagus nerve to reduce the effects of stress and inflammation.

Is perimenopause depression real? Yes, and it's finally being talked about. In today's episode, I sit down with journalist and TV presenter turned author, Shelly Horton, who shares her deeply personal journey through perimenopause, depression, and the turning points that helped her reclaim her life. Her honesty, humor, and fierce advocacy will leave you inspired, informed, and ready to take action for your own health.

Her own perimenopause journey sparked her mission to smash the stigma around menopause and inspired her bestselling book I'm Your Peri-Godmother: A Happily-Ever-After Guide to Kicking Perimenopause in the Ovaries.

What are the top questions women are Googling about menopause? In this episode, I'm breaking down the six most searched questions about menopause and sharing the science, the myths, and the practical solutions that actually help. Because menopause isn't just something you type into a search bar, it's something you live through and you deserve more than generic answers. We cover: The very first signs and symptoms women notice when menopause begins The average age menopause starts and what influences it The most common (and surprising) symptoms no one tells you about How long menopause actually lasts and why the answer isn't simple Hormone therapy: is it safe, who should consider it, and what the research says Blog article: https://hackmyage.com/most-common-and-uncommon-menopause-symptoms/ Podcast Uncommon Symptoms and Perimenopause Stages: https://youtu.be/o7UZcD79rN8?si=by8XD7rU4sHJ0V-J Give thanks to our sponsors: Try Vitali skincare. 20% off with code ZORA here Get Primeadine spermidine by Oxford Healthspan. 15% discount with code ZORA here.

Is NAD really the fountain of youth, or just another overhyped supplement trend? From energy boosts to wrinkle reduction, the excitement is everywhere, but the truth is a lot more complex. In this episode, I sit down with biomedical engineer Courtney Van Bussum to cut through the noise. Courtney brings deep expertise in cellular and longevity science,, giving her a unique perspective on both the research and the real-world clinical applications. We cover: What NAD actually is and why it's essential for energy, longevity, and healthy aging. How to know if your NAD levels are low and whether it even matters. The biggest myths and misconceptions about NAD supplements. NAD changes in pre- versus post-menopause. Why precursors like NR and NMN may backfire if deeper pathways aren't addressed. Free and low-cost ways to preserve and recycle NAD naturally. What you need to know about the molecule 1-MNA (and why it may be more important than NAD itself). Courtney Van Bussum is the COO and co-founder of Longevity Launch Labs, an innovation incubator accelerating breakthrough products and companies in cellular and longevity medicine. With a background in biomedical engineering and early experience as a strategy consultant working with both Fortune 500s and startups, Courtney brings a rare blend of scientific insight and operational execution. Before launching Longevity Launch Labs, she helped modernize operations at the Boulder Longevity Institute—one of the country's leading functional and regenerative medicine clinics. Courtney's mission is to help build parallel systems that make healthcare smarter, more proactive, and more personal—especially in the rapidly evolving world of cellular health.
