In this episode, Dr. Betty Murray, PhD in integrative and functional nutrition, reveals the shocking truth about HRT that could change how you approach midlife health forever. After working with tens of thousands of women over 20 years and diving deep into the research that conventional medicine ignores, she's uncovering why the fear around hormones is largely unfounded – and why that fear might be robbing you of your best years. From her own devastating experience with early perimenopause after a tubal ligation to becoming one of the world's experts in women's hormone metabolism, Dr. Murray shares the game-changing Medicare study of 10 million women that proves everything we thought we knew about HRT risks was wrong. She breaks down the real difference between therapeutic dosing and dangerous over-prescribing, explains why "estrogen dominance" doesn't mean what you think it does, and reveals why your body's estrogen receptors actually INCREASE during menopause – not decrease like we've been told. We also explore her telemedicine platform, The Minerva Project, designed to offer holistic, evidence-based hormonal care to women across the United States. This is the science-backed roadmap to reclaiming your vitality, protecting your brain, and thriving through midlife without apology. If you've been on the fence about HRT or struggling with conflicting advice from practitioners, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to make the best decision for YOUR unique situation.

Exposure to mold toxicity affects hormonal balance. You may not have been exposed to mold or you may not know that you've been exposed to mold. That mold doesn't always look like asthma or you getting sick, but it may look like a simple symptom that might be mistaken for menopause. Stay tuned to this episode and learn what mold exposure can do, what it might feel like and why you might simply mistaken your menopause symptoms when they could be so much more! My Guest: Dr. Jaban Moore is a Doctor of Chiropractic located in Kansas City who works virtually with clients through functional medicine to assist them in overcoming chronic health conditions. He went from being an award-winning college athlete to not being able to get out of bed. He sought out countless doctors looking for answers, but doctors only gave him “band-aid” solutions. He was later diagnosed with Lyme disease. After overcoming this complex infection, he helped clients discover the causes of their symptoms. Dr. Moore specializes in Lyme disease, PANS/PANDAS, autism, parasitic infections, and environmental toxicities.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:13:44] How does mold toxicity specifically impact hormonal balance during menopause? [00:18:45] What are the common symptoms women might experience if mold toxicity is impacting their hormones? [00:22:46] How can women identify if mold exposure is a hidden factor in their menopausal symptoms? [00:30:53] What detox strategies do you recommend for safely eliminating mold toxins from the body? [00:37:08] Are there specific biohacking tools or supplements you like that can support hormones during this detox process? [00:40:03] How long does it typically take to see improvements once mold toxicity is addressed?   Why Mold Toxicity Affects Hormonal Balance More Than You Think   What Mold Exposure Can Do? Fungus that grows on walls, food, flooring, etc. Beauty products, Botox, and lifestyle toxins contribute to a decreased immune system. Disrupts mitochondria, elevates cortisol, blocks melatonin. May cause exercise intolerance due to “backpack of toxins”.   Symptoms of Mold Toxicity Chronic fatigue, weight gain, anxiety, GI issues, hormone imbalances Can trigger inflammation, autoimmune responses Mold symptoms are often mistaken for menopause   Dr. Moore's Detox Roadmap Replenish nutrients (glutathione, potassium, sodium, B12) Open drainage (lymph, liver, bowels) Safe place - remove environmental toxins (air, food, water, hygiene products, dental and implants) Nervous system - address stress and trauma (therapy) Start detox using antimicrobials + binders (e.g., carboxy, pectasol) How long will it take? Mold detox alone: typically 3–4 months More complex cases: can take years Depends on sensitivity and co-infections   Biohacking Tools That Work Infrared Sauna (160°F+) Red Light Therapy Lymphatic Drainage Castor Oil packs, dry brushing More advanced: Ozone Blood Filtering (EBOO), Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy (PEMF), Neural Therapy  Most aren't required, but they speed up recovery   Connect with Dr. Jaban: Website of Dr. Jaban Moore Facebook - Dr. Jaban Moore Facebook Group - True Healing Strategies with Dr. Jaban Instagram - Dr. Jaban Moore Instagram - @redefiningwellnesscenter_ Tiktok - @drjabanmoore_   Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - What Is Sarcopenia and How to Avoid Sarcopenia In Menopause Next Episode - Retired Lawyer Shares How to Advocate for Yourself & Loved Ones More Like This - How to Use Stress as a Tool for Hormone Balance   Resources: Don't know where to start?

On today's episode, Luis speaks with Will Harris, a farmer, cattleman, and owner of White Oak Pastures. Will shares his personal story of how he inherited his family farm, and how he transitioned the farm from an industrial model to a regenerative one.When taking an industrial approach to farming, Will had caused desertification on parts of his land from the use of chemicals and monocultural farming. His cattle were taking hormones and pharmaceuticals to make them produce more. Over time, he began to see that the focus of industrial farming is all about killing things, like pests and weeds. Knowing that every organism has a role in it's ecosystem, he decided to begin to make the transition to a more sustainable and Earth-focused approach. You can learn more about White Oak Pastures here: https://whiteoakpastures.com/Register here for the upcoming August 9th webinar, "Supporting Boys Through Puberty: Navigating P*rnography, Hormones & Isolation".

Hormones can be wild, especially in perimenopause and menopause, and sometimes it feels like no one talks about just how much they mess with your mind, mood, and energy. But there's a real science behind why things feel off, and it's not all in your head. I sat down with my friend and hormone expert, Dr. Betty Murray, to talk about the gut-brain-hormone connection and why it's such a big deal for women in this season of life. She's not only a Functional Medicine Pioneer with over 20 years of experience, she's also the Founder of The Menrva Project, a game-changing platform rethinking menopause care. We talk about the stuff most doctors skip, why testing your hormones (not just guessing!) matters, how your gut health plays into your symptoms, and how stress totally hijacks your body. Dr. Betty shares what she's seeing work in real time with her clients and why truly personalized care makes all the difference. If you've ever been told “it's just aging” or felt brushed off, this one's for you. She also gives some real-life tips like what to eat, what to watch out for, and simple things that can actually help you feel like yourself again. It's not about fixing you (because you're not broken) but about understanding what your body needs in this new chapter. Whether you're just starting to notice changes or you're deep in the hormone rollercoaster, there's something here for you. And if you're looking for something fun (and seriously good for you), I've been loving the new Mighty Maca Mango! It's everything I love about Mighty Maca Plus, but with a zesty mango twist that's perfect for summer. Try it with sparkling water, pour it over ice, or even make popsicles with the kids. It's delicious and loaded with the good stuff your body will thank you for. You can check it out at dranna.com.   Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introduction.

Trevor is back for a second podcast episode with Luis to discuss parenting in the age of social media and screen prevalence.  The hard first question is, what social media and screen patterns do the parents model?  Do parents use their own free time to disassociate and isolate with the screen? Do parents use the screen as a babysitter for their child/ren, so that they have time to resource themselves? When parents live an authentic, meaningful and satisfied life, they can connect to their child with playfulness and curiosity. Trevor explains how to help break a child's screen pattern through what he calls wedging change. He gives several free, easy, and accessible ways to connect with children, and it's not through talking. Remember, perfection is not the goal, connection is. You do not need to figure out how to do this in isolation!Rooted Futures information:Website: https://rootedfutures.org/Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/rootedfuturesmentoring?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Register here for the upcoming August 9th webinar, "Supporting Boys Through Puberty: Navigating P*rnography, Hormones & Isolation".

In this groundbreaking episode of Menopause Mastery, Dr. Betty Murray sits down with Dr. Daved Rosensweet—a physician with 55 years of experience who has been fighting for women's hormone rights since before most of us were born—to break down the game-changing FDA meeting that happened last week. For the first time in decades, the FDA is considering removing the black box warning from estrogen that has terrorized women and doctors for over 20 years. Dr. Rosensweet calls it "the biggest healthcare mistake of our time," and he's not wrong—this false warning has kept millions of women from life-saving hormone therapy. But here's what the media isn't telling you: the science has ALWAYS shown that women on hormones have LESS risk of breast cancer, heart attack, and stroke than women who go untreated. Yes, you read that right—LESS risk, not more.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ In this illuminating episode of Sex with Emily, Dr. Emily Morse sits down with Dr. Will Cole, a leader in functional medicine and author of Gut Feelings, to explore how emotional and physical health are deeply connected, and how addressing both is essential for a thriving sex life, better relationships, and holistic well-being. Dr. Cole explains the "shameflammation connection"; how repressed emotions like shame, guilt, and stress can cause chronic inflammation, impacting libido, energy, and connection. He breaks down this mind-body cycle where emotional stress manifests as physical illness and offers somatic tools for healing, emphasizing that nervous system regulation is crucial to breaking this loop through breathwork, stillness, and rituals that bring people back into their bodies. We dive deep into the gut-brain connection and its major role in mood, hormone balance, and sexual health. Dr. Cole reveals how processed foods, sugar, and unresolved trauma can hijack desire and performance, while discussing silent inflammation and hormone imbalances that often show up as low libido, fatigue, or anxiety. He uses advanced lab testing to find hidden causes when patients say "I don't feel like myself." The conversation addresses shame around pleasure and sexual identity, highlighting how culture often teaches us to suppress pleasure or disconnect from desire. Both Emily and Dr. Cole agree that reclaiming sensuality starts with removing shame and practicing compassionate self-awareness.

My guest is Dr. Nirao Shah, MD, PhD, a professor of psychiatry, behavioral sciences and neurobiology at Stanford University School of Medicine. We discuss how the brains of males and females differ and how those differences arise from different genes and hormones during fetal development, in childhood and adulthood. We discuss what drives male- versus female-specific behaviors and how hormonal fluctuations across the lifespan, including puberty, the menstrual cycle, menopause and aging – affect behavior, cognition and health. Additionally, we discuss how biology relates to gender identity and the impact of hormone therapies on brain circuits that regulate mating, parenting and social bonding.
