Full Plate: Ditch diet culture, respect your body, and set boundaries.
Perimenopause often starts quietly. Maybe your sleep gets weird, maybe your cycles change, maybe you just don't feel like yourself. And when that happens, most of us do the obvious thing: we start looking for information. We want reassurance. We want a roadmap.And that's where the trap springs.Because the loudest voices don't talk to you like a human moving through a profound hormonal transition. No—they talk to you like a problem, a project, and a body in need of tightening, shrinking, purifying, or fixing.Cole Kazdin returns (her second time on the pod!) to talk to me about this whole mess.We get into so much in the episode, including:• the sneaky ways diet culture slips into menopause advice• the reactivation of old eating disorder behaviors• orthorexia, “eating clean,” and restriction as coping mechanisms• the research on midlife vulnerability to dieting• longevity and nutrition misinformation• reclaiming exercise from wellness culture• how we can experience more joy, autonomy, and nourishment during this transitionSupport the show: Enjoying this podcast?

How far are people willing to go for glass skin and a clear face? For years, we have witnessed adventurous — and sometimes extreme — pursuits within skincare and cosmetic treatments in the quest for ageless beauty. We've heard it all: the Vampire Facial, human placenta for collagen, snail slime, and, in recent years, salmon sperm DNA. From celebrities like Jennifer Aniston to Kim Kardashian, salmon sperm facials have become the latest craze promising skin regeneration, brightening, and that coveted youthful glow. But what exactly is salmon sperm DNA therapy, and does it actually work — or is it just another viral beauty trend swimming through social media?In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Lanna Cheuck, DO, FACS. Dr. Cheuck is a board-certified urologic surgeon specializing in aesthetics and sexual health and is the CEO and Medical Director of LC Medical Aesthetics, a medical spa empire with multiple locations specializing in cosmetic surgery, injectables, sexual health.Dr. Cheuck received her DO from the NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine, completed her Urology Residency at Brown University, and pursued a Minimally Invasive Urologic Surgery Fellowship at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

Send us a textWhat happens when a holiday cocktail meets a castle full of princesses? We kick off a month of Christmas specials with a park-inspired Holiday Cosmo and a globe-spanning tour of princess traditions that blends culture, comedy, and cozy storytelling.We start with the Magic Kingdom's Holiday Cosmo as our guide: vanilla vodka, orange liqueur, cranberry, lime, and a sugared rim. We share an easy home recipe and talk flavor: how vanilla rounds tart fruit, why the color skews blush instead of neon, and simple tweaks for batching or going zero-proof without losing the festive mood. From there, the sleigh takes off. Snow White harmonizes with forest friends and accidentally bakes forty pies. Cinderella observes midnight rituals in France and hosts a slipper-chic party after a wrapping spell goes wild. Pocahontas crafts light from berries and river stones. Mulan battles snarled lights like a seasoned general. Rapunzel becomes the tinsel queen and gifts lanterns under winter skies.Our tour lands in Polynesia with Moana's outrigger Santa and Maui's fire-roasted feast, then dives undersea for Ariel's clam-shell gifts and under-the-sea carols. Belle curates a marathon reading while Beast's décor instincts falter and Mrs. Potts saves the evening with tea. Genie grants Agrabah a snow day as Raja topples trees with kitten enthusiasm. New Orleans swings with Tiana's beignets, gumbo, and a jazz parade led by Louis. Scotland's Merida hosts Highland holiday games featuring a decorated tree toss. In Arendelle, Anna cycles through sweaters and snowmen while Elsa turns the square into an ice-sculpture light show. We wrap with the Madrigal family's chaotic sweetness—Bruno's prophecies and Dolores's supersonic Santa alerts—and Asha's Mediterranean wishing-star cookies.It's a festive mix of cocktail craft, Disney nostalgia, cultural nods, and quick-witted bits that will spark your own tradition ideas. If you smiled, learned a trick for your next Cosmo, or found a new favorite princess moment, tap follow, leave a five-star review, and share this episode with a friend who loves Christmas and castles. Cheers!
Taboo to Truth: Unapologetic Conversations About Sexuality in Midlife

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Treena Orchard about her memoir, Sticky, Sexy, Sad: Swipe Culture and the Darker Side of Dating Apps (Aevo, U Toronto Press, 2024). Jane Goodall meets Carrie Bradshaw in Sticky, Sexy, Sad – an insightful, empowering memoir by an anthropologist who lays her own life bare as she explores the cultural matrix of digital courtship. Lifelong luddite Treena Orchard was a newly sober woman coming off a much-needed break from relationships, reluctantly taking the digital plunge by downloading a dating app. Instead of the fun, easy experiences advertised on swiping platforms, she discovered endless upkeep, ghosting, fleeting moments of sexual connection, and a steady flow of misogyny. In Sticky, Sexy, Sad, Orchard uses her skills as both an anthropologist who studies sexuality and a sex-positive feminist to explore what it feels like to want love while also resisting the addictive pull of platforms designed to make us swipe-dependent. She asks important questions for those searching for love in the modern era: What are the social and human impacts of using dating apps? How can we maintain our integrity and warm-blooded desire for intimacy while swiping? Can we resist some of the problematic aspects of swipe culture? Is love on dating apps even possible? Revealing how dating apps are powerful social and sexual technologies that are radically transforming sexuality, relationships, and how we think about ourselves, this remarkable book cracks the code of modern romance. Told with humor and vulnerability, Sticky, Sexy, Sad is a riveting and inspiring guide to staying true to ourselves amid the digitization of love in the twenty-first century. Treena Orchard is an anthropologist and associate professor in the School of Health Studies at Western University. She researches and engages in activist debates about sexuality, gender, and health among diverse cultural and digital communities. Deeply committed to public scholarship, she regularly writes for and is featured in leading online publications, including Cosmopolitan, Men's Health, and The Conversation.

You've done everything right. The degree, the career, the salary that finally exceeds what your parents made. You're checking all the boxes. But if you're honest, you still feel broke. Not because your bank account is empty, but because you never feel safe with money. You're controlling, budgeting, tracking every dollar, and somehow it still doesn't feel like enough. That constant financial anxiety? That's not about your numbers. It's about the unworthiness conversation running underneath every money decision you make. Lisa Chastain grew up blue-collar on a dirt road in Las Vegas, watching her dad never make more than $60,000 a year. She did what good girls do: got the degree, landed the job with the 401k and health insurance, bought a house at 24, married at 25, had her kid at 28. She was winning. Until she wasn't. When her husband lost his job nine months after she left her career to stay home, everything unraveled. The $100,000 in her 401k? Drained trying to hold it all together and start her financial advisor business. The perfect marriage? Hiding active addiction and chaos. The life that looked so good from the outside? Completely unsustainable on the inside. Lisa spent years trying to control her way to safety—budgeting harder, fixing her husband, making herself smaller, believing if she just did more, it would finally feel secure. But control was never the answer. The real work was healing the "not enough" conversation that made her use money to prove her worth, use debt to fill voids that weren't fillable with things, and stay in toxic situations because leaving felt like failure. Through divorce, a public rebound relationship with another addict, and what she calls her "come to Jesus moment," Lisa rebuilt her entire relationship with money. She stopped budgeting. She redefined success beyond bank account balances. She learned to use debt strategically instead of shamefully. And she made it her mission to help other women do the same—because financial shame keeps successful women stuck in scarcity longer than actual money problems ever could. Today, Lisa is a nationally recognized personal finance coach, bestselling author of Stop Budgeting, Start Living, host of The Real Money Podcast, and the woman teaching thousands of women how to stop controlling money and start trusting themselves with it. In this raw, vulnerable conversation, Lisa reveals: Why budgeting is actually a control mechanism designed to keep women feeling ashamed of their financial decisions (and what to do instead) The hidden cost of financial control: how trying to manage every dollar keeps you feeling broke no matter how much you make Why debt isn't the problem—the unworthiness conversation driving your spending is How men are championed for using debt strategically while women are shamed for having $5,000 on a credit card The real reason successful women still live paycheck to paycheck despite good salaries: they're banking out of emotion, not data Why money amplifies who you already are (and what happens when you put money on top of an "unworthy" story) How to build self-trust with money through financial forecasting instead of white-knuckling a budget The generational shame women carry around money ownership and decision-making (and why it wasn't even legal for women to own their own accounts until less than 100 years ago) What redefining success actually looks like when you stop attaching it to external markers The exact moment Lisa realized she was the problem—and also the solution This episode is for you if you've ever: Done everything "right" financially but still feel like you're one emergency away from falling apart Felt successful on paper but broke in your nervous system—constantly anxious about money no matter what your bank account says Controlled and budgeted your way through life only to realize you still don't feel safe with money Carried shame about debt, spending decisions, or financial mistakes that men would be championed for taking Made good money but somehow still felt like it was never enough Used spending or debt to fill a void that wasn't actually fillable with things Known you should feel more financially secure than you do, but the anxiety won't go away Realized you're trying to control money because you don't trust yourself with it Guest Bio Lisa Chastain is a nationally recognized Personal Finance Coach and bestselling author with over 20 years of experience helping women take control of their money. Featured in CNBC, O – The Oprah Magazine, Fortune, Business Insider, and Forbes, Lisa is known for her fresh, no-shame approach to financial empowerment. After burning through $100,000 and nearly going broke, she rebuilt her life and made it her mission to help women fix their finances—without rigid budgets. In 2016, she launched her coaching business to teach women how to track money intentionally, invest wisely, and create sustainable wealth. Today, she's the host of The Real Money Podcast and the bestselling author of Stop Budgeting, Start Living, which challenges outdated money rules and inspires financial confidence. Lisa's work focuses on money mindset, leadership, and financial emotional intelligence, guiding clients and organizations to achieve long-term stability and freedom. She has been featured in Cosmopolitan, NBC News, MSN Money, Fortune, and Entrepreneur Magazine, and was named one of Las Vegas Women Magazine's "People to Watch."

If Lisa's story hit close to home, it's because you're carrying the same pattern: doing everything right, checking all the boxes, making good money, but still feeling broke, unsafe, and like it's never enough. Here's the truth: That anxiety isn't about your bank account balance. It's about the unworthiness conversation running underneath every financial decision you make. The shame you carry about debt. The belief that if you just budget harder, control tighter, manage better, you'll finally feel safe. But control is never the answer. Self-trust is. You're exhausted from white-knuckling your way through your financial life. You're collapsing into bed at night, mind racing about money, even though objectively you're doing fine. You snap at your partner about spending. You feel guilty every time you buy something for yourself. You've built a life that looks successful on the outside, but inside it doesn't feel congruent. The Congruency Audit is where we look at the gap between the financial success you've built on the outside and what you're actually feeling on the inside. We'll identify the exact patterns keeping you stuck in financial control instead of self-trust, the wounds driving your relationship with money, and what it's going to take for you to finally create success that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside. This isn't about budgeting harder. This isn't about more spreadsheets. This is about healing the "not enough" story that's been running your financial life since childhood—so you can finally step into the version of you who trusts herself with money, makes decisions from abundance instead of scarcity, and redefines success on your own terms.

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa has packed the past week with headline-making appearances, business moves, and some memorable drama, signaling another busy chapter for the pop sensation. On the business and performance front, JoJo is set to light up Black Friday with a free noon concert at the Mall of America, debuting her brand-new holiday single “Message to the World (Little Drummer Girl),” as reported by 365 Twin Cities. Not only will fans experience her trademark high-energy performance, but VIP upgrades include signed holiday gifts, feeding both merchandise and fan engagement. This special event, set for November 28, lands amid a string of VIP dance class meet-and-greet appearances at major dance studios throughout the Midwest in the days that follow—Aspirations Dance Company in Illinois, Larkin Dance Studio in Minnesota, and CORE Dance in Omaha according to Eventbrite listings. Each session features choreography to her new song and exclusive signed merch, showing JoJo's direct connection with superfans and young dancers.JoJo's public life, of course, is never without social buzz and relationship drama. The “Dance Moms” alum's now-high-profile romance with British reality star Chris Hughes remains a hot topic, following their splashy red carpet debut at the Dancers Against Cancer Gala of the Stars last month in Beverly Hills, covered by AOL and Cosmopolitan. JoJo was honored with the Humanitarian Award for her decade of charity work, with Hughes presenting—cue plenty of red carpet PDA and affectionate posts to both their Instagram accounts. This marks a major personal and public milestone, making their relationship official in front of Hollywood's eyes. Notably, this gala appearance came after JoJo publicly confirmed her relationship with Hughes in The Guardian, describing it as “a beautiful connection,” and after their families were introduced backstage at her latest UK tour stops.Of course, headlines haven't all been rosy. JoJo was forced to address audience behavior during the European Infinity Heart Tour's opening night in Dublin, demanding fans stop distracting her boyfriend Chris Hughes with selfies during her show—a moment that quickly spread on TikTok and Just Jared. The relationship with Hughes itself remains under a social media microscope given its messy origin—JoJo's previous partner, Kath Ebbs, discussed on The Mitch Churi Chat Show podcast their emotional fallout and accidental matchmaking of JoJo with Chris, which led to negative fan backlash and drama that even involved JoJo's mother going after the Aussie podcaster online, as reported by Star Observer.Amid the noise, JoJo's media presence rolls on strong: she's scheduled for an appearance on “Live with Kelly and Mark” on November 28 and keeps her millions of Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube fans fed with behind-the-scenes content, event updates, and personal posts. Her brand collaborations and merchandising empire also hold steady, with hair bows and holiday gear featuring prominently in recent promotions. Current estimates peg her net worth at around fourteen million dollars according to several reputable entertainment profiles, reinforcing JoJo's position as not just a performer but a formidable business force.None of these developments show signs of slowing down JoJo's momentum. Each public appearance and social media moment, especially those tied to her evolving personal story and new music, continue to shape her image for years to come—with her star power and fan devotion only growing louder by the week.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

This week Nicola and Di chat with the fearless trailblazer, Ita Buttrose. From Cleo to The Australian Women’s Weekly and beyond, Ita has shaped media, championed women, and inspired a nation. In her new memoir, Unapologetically Ita, she shares her incredible story. At just 23, Ita became editor of the Sunday Telegraph and The Daily Telegraph.

Taylor Scott is a hospitality lifer turned leadership coach who cut his teeth at Walt Disney World, led sales at Disney Vacation Club, and earned his MBA from Cornell's Hotel School. He's the author of Lead with Hospitality and the leadership fable Give Hospitality, translating world-class service principles into practical playbooks for teams. Susan and Taylor talk about connection, culture, and coaching. What You'll Learn About: • Why "don't reply to everything" is terrible leadership advice. • How sales and leadership mirror each other: build trust fast, influence behavior faster. • The Connect–Serve–Engage–Inspire framework you can run on a busy lobby shift. • LEAD as a service checklist: Listen, Educate, Act, Deliver. • The mindset shift from SOP security blanket to entrepreneurial trial-and-error. • Grad school's real ROI: "building shelves" in your brain + a global network. • How to lead high achievers with the 3 C's: Choice, Competence, Community. • "Guest first, team always" and "Purpose over policy" as decision filters. • Turning fear-based flailing (hello, mushroom panic) into guest-centered choices. • Why the next leadership frontier is re-teaching human connection in an AI world. Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Leadership and Sales Share the Same Core: Connection and Influence Taylor makes the case that sales is leadership, and leadership is sales. In both roles, success depends on making people trust and like you quickly, then inspiring them to take action. His "Lead with Hospitality" framework — Connect, Serve, Engage, Inspire — provides a clear path for achieving this in daily operations: connect with people on a human level, serve them first, engage with generosity and purpose, and inspire them through storytelling and authenticity. 2. The Best Leaders Create Environments for Motivation Drawing from the self-determination theory, Taylor explains that people become self-motivated when they experience choice, competence, and community — his "three C's." High achievers, in particular, thrive when leaders give them autonomy, recognize their expertise, and foster a sense of belonging. Leadership isn't about control; it's about designing the conditions where people can thrive. 3. Purpose Over Policy: Leading with Humanity From his experiences at Disney and Cosmopolitan, Taylor emphasizes two enduring leadership mantras: "Guest first, team always" and "Purpose over policy." Great leaders prioritize people and purpose over rigid rules, empowering teams to make guest-centered decisions. As hospitality evolves with AI and generational change, Taylor predicts the next frontier of leadership will be relearning how to connect on a human level — teaching empathy, conversation, and connection in an increasingly digital world.

In episode 172 of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with wellness leader Liz Plosser to unpack the practical power of essential amino acids (EAAs) for women in midlife. Liz shares how auditing her protein (moving from ~40–50g/day to 100–130g), lifting heavier, and adding a simple EAA + creatine ritual transformed her recovery, sleep, energy, and body composition. You'll learn how leucine acts as the “on-switch” for muscle protein synthesis, why EAAs raise blood amino acids faster than food or even whey, and exactly how to time them around training—especially if you love early-morning or fasted workouts.They get into real-life scenarios: perimenopause and muscle loss, plant-forward diets that miss the leucine threshold, travel days with low appetite, and periods of stress when whole-food intake dips. Liz explains how she pairs EAAs with creatine for stronger training and steadier energy, and why she still prioritizes whole-food protein as her foundation. You'll also hear when not to sip EAAs (e.g., during longer fasts for autophagy goals) and how to keep perspective by focusing on the “big rocks” first—strength, cardio, sleep, stress, connection, and simple, protein-forward meals.Finally, Dr. Anthony and Liz compare EAAs vs. whey vs. whole food, outline quick-start dosing/timing ideas, and share easy kitchen and gym habits that make consistency feel effortless. Whether you're rebuilding strength after a lull, navigating hormone changes, or just want a cleaner way to support recovery, this episode gives you a clear, actionable playbook to get stronger and feel amazing—without overcomplicating your routine.Key TakeawaysEAAs rapidly raise blood aminos and trigger MPS.Leucine threshold (~2–3 g) is the on-switch for MPS.EAAs are great pre/during/post—especially for fasted AM training.Aging = anabolic resistance; EAAs help bridge the gap.Food = slow, whey = faster, EAAs = fastest availability.Pair EAAs with creatine for strength, recovery, and body comp.Useful for travel, low appetite, and plant-forward meals.Focus on “big rocks” first: strength, cardio, sleep, stress, nutrition.EAAs complement—don't replace—high-quality whole-food protein.Skip EAAs during longer fasts if autophagy is the goal.Learn More about Liz Plosser and Kion:Website: Go to getkion.com/fitmother and save 20%Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lizplosser/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LizBakerPlosserSubstack: https://lizplosser.substack.com/Kion's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kion/Biographical Information on Liz PlosserLiz Plosser is the former Editor-in-Chief of Women's Health, where for seven years she oversaw the brand across its print and digital platforms and various brand extensions, reaching a monthly audience of 44+ million.

Nothing can survive the brutal conditions on the surface of the Moon. But a story that debuted 125 years ago depicted a vast civilization below the surface – a society of insects. First Men in the Moon was written by H.G. Wells. It was published over several months in two magazines – “The Cosmopolitan” in the United States, and “The Strand” in Britain. The first installment appeared in November of 1900. In the story, a man named Bedford befriends a scientist named Cavor who’s invented “cavorite” – a substance that nullifies gravity. He builds a ship and covers it with shutters that are coated in the stuff. Opening and closing the shutters allows the ship to move through space. The two men travel to the Moon, where they’re taken underground by the Selenites. Bedford escapes. Thinking Cavor is dead, he returns to Earth alone. But two years later, Cavor starts beaming messages to Earth. He describes the Moon and its inhabitants in detail. After he tells the Selenite’s leader of Earth’s war-like tendencies, though, he’s cut off – and never heard from again. First Men in the Moon was a hit. It influenced scientists and other fiction writers alike for decades, inspiring more stories, plus efforts to reach the Moon – a world populated only in the imagination. The Moon climbs into good view by about 8 o’clock tonight. Elnath – the second-brightest star of Taurus – is quite close to the Moon’s upper left. Script by Damond Benningfield

"It's not enough to think confident — you have to show it. The inner work matters, but so does the outer energy you project into the world." — Kimmy Seltzer In this episode, Kristen M. Olson sits down with Kimmy Seltzer — a therapist-turned-dating-strategist and host of The Charisma Quotient podcast — to dissect modern love in the age of apps, filters, and fast connections. They explore: Kimmy's journey from therapist to style-confidence coach and media personality. Her signature outside-in method for building confidence and attraction. The connection between appearance, energy, and emotional readiness. What reality dating shows like Love Is Blind Denver and The Golden Bachelor reveal about our obsession with instant chemistry. Why rushing the dating process sabotages long-term connection — and how to start "data-dating" instead of "blind-dating." How to reframe being single as a period of self-alignment, not self-fixing. Key Takeaway: Confidence is a skill built both internally and externally — when you align your energy, mindset, and presentation, you attract from authenticity, not fear. Time Stamps: 0:00 – 2:00 | Intro & Welcome 2:00 – 7:00 | Kimmy's background and evolution from therapist to confidence coach 7:00 – 12:00 | The "Outside-In" philosophy: how style transforms mindset 12:00 – 18:00 | Fear, visibility, and dating after reinvention 18:00 – 24:00 | "Love Is Blind Denver" and reality TV's dating illusions 24:00 – 30:00 | The data-dating method: collecting connection clues 30:00 – 35:00 | Confidence, vulnerability, and emotional readiness 35:00 – 40:00 | The future of dating and authentic attraction Kimmy Seltzer: Kimmy is a Confidence Therapist, Authentic Dating Strategist and Image Expert. With vast knowledge and experience as a therapist, certified style coach, dating coach, and matchmaker, she has helped people find lasting love and connection, attract success and build valuable relationships using her unique "confidence makeover" process. Using an outside-in approach, Kimmy implements targeted style, emotional and social intelligence in people's lives using her signature formula, "The Charisma Quotient," working on body language, first impressions, image/wardrobe and flirting and how it impacts attraction.
