In this episode I'm going to help you answer the question: should I be starting hormone replacement therapy during peri or post menopause? Over the past 23 years, there has been a lot of fear about hormone replacement therapy (HRT). The Women's Health Initiative originally reported a concern about breast cancer risk, and that led many women to avoid hormone replacement. A newly updated report from the same researchers has completely changed the perspective on hormone replacement. The researchers are now stating that HRT is not increasing breast cancer risk the way they once feared. Instead, HRT can actually decrease disease risk, including by decreasing heart disease, dementia, diabetes, and osteoporosis. That is such essential information, and such a shift in what we've been hearing, that I wanted to cover this topic in detail. Choosing hormone replacement therapy is a very individualized decision. It's important to understand and think through your medical history and your health risk factors. It's also important to work with a practitioner who understands the latest research. It is essential to individualize your doses and how hormones are delivered to your body (oral, cream, patch, etc). I'm going to cover how to find a practitioner who can guide you every step of the way. I'm here to help you!

In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright sits down with Dr. Corinne Menn, a board-certified OBGYN, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, and 23-year breast cancer survivor who brings both clinical expertise and lived experience to the menopause conversation. A BRCA carrier and surgical menopause patient, Dr. Menn is a fierce advocate for women navigating cancer risk, premature menopause, and hormone health.   Together, they unpack the major gaps in menopause care—from the underuse of hormone therapy (only 4–5% of women use it) to the widespread misinformation among healthcare providers. Dr. Menn sheds light on how women with conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, or hereditary cancer risk are often excluded from mainstream menopause discussions and left without support. She explains why many cancer survivors can safely use hormone therapy under updated guidelines and why progesterone is still needed even after hysterectomy if endometriosis was present.   This powerful conversation is a must-listen for anyone impacted by surgical or early menopause, and those advocating for more compassionate, informed, and personalized care. ••• Connect with Dr. Corinne Menn: Instagram: @drmennobgyn TikTok: @drmennobgyn Website: www.drmenn.com Alloy Website: www.myalloy.com ••• Make sure to follow Dr. Vonda Wright: Instagram: @drvondawright Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@vondawright Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drvondawright LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonda-wright-md-ms-2803374 Website: http://www.DrVondaWright.com ••• If you enjoyed this episode, Subscribe to “HOT For Your Health” for more inspiring episodes.

Why do so many women hit their 40s and suddenly feel like their bodies are falling apart? From exhaustion and weight gain to joint pain, brain fog, and disrupted sleep, midlife can feel like a slow unraveling, and for many, it's blamed on menopause. But what if it's not just your hormones? What if the symptoms we associate with menopause are only part of a much bigger picture? One that includes rising inflammation, stress, and disrupted recovery, catching up all at once? What if understanding how menopause interacts with these other changes could give women more control over their health, not less? This is where the concept of inflammaging comes in, and it might be the missing link in how we care for women in midlife. In this episode, Dr. Wendy Sweet, PhD, researcher and women's health expert, breaks down a radically more nuanced (and empowering) view of the menopause transition. Menopause is actually an inflammatory phase of life, and its effects can be addressed with lifestyle interventions. Before we even consider Hormone Replacement Therapy, there are changes we can make with diet, movement, and sleep. Through decades of research and work with thousands of women, Dr. Sweet has uncovered what most people miss: You can feel better if you adjust your habits to match the life stage you're in.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Menopause or inflammation “Inflammaging” is the hidden force behind the fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, and gut issues menopausal women experience. How do we slow it down?  -Why your body might feel like it's falling apart after 40 What physiological changes happen beneath the surface, and how do you adapt to them? -Rethinking the HRT-first approach Before turning to hormone therapy, what if we changed our sleep, stress, and nutrition?  -One-size-fits-all advice doesn't work What your body needs at 45 isn't what it needs at 52. How do you tailor your movement, food, and recovery to your life phase?    Guest Bio Dr. Wendy Sweet, PhD, is a global leader in women's healthy ageing and the founder of My Menopause Transformation, an evidence-based online coaching programme that has helped thousands of women worldwide navigate menopause with clarity, health, and confidence. With a doctorate in women's healthy ageing, a Master's in lifestyle behaviour change, and a background in nursing, exercise science, and nutrition, Wendy brings a unique, holistic perspective to midlife health. She was a pioneer in New Zealand's personal training industry with Les Mills International and later became a university lecturer, equipping her with both the academic and real-world expertise to challenge outdated menopause paradigms. Having personally struggled through her own menopause transition, Wendy now dedicates her work to educating and empowering women to thrive, not just survive, this powerful life stage.

If you're a woman over 40 wondering “What is happening to me?”—this episode is your permission slip to get curious, not quiet. Dr. Jannine Krause and Theresa Lear Levine dive deep into the hormonal maze of perimenopause and menopause—from brain fog and bloating to ADHD symptoms and anxiety—and explain how these changes ripple far beyond your period tracker. We talk hormone replacement therapy (HRT)—the myths, the magic, and the marketing of “bioidenticals.” We break down the often-missed links between gut health, detoxification, emotional regulation, and your hormone story. And yes, we talk about the things nobody wants to admit: the not so pretty results of various cleanses, the relationship between estrogen, binge eating and emotional outbursts, and why relational healing is hormonal healing. This is the conversation your doctor probably hasn't had with you—but your body is begging for it.

Send us a textIn this episode of The StrongHer Way, I sit down with Elizabeth Katzman, a functional nutrition expert passionate about helping women navigate the hormonal rollercoaster of perimenopause and menopause with confidence.We dive deep into the intersection of hormone health, strength training, and functional nutrition, focusing on why advocating for your health is more important than ever. From the critical role of estrogen and progesterone to the often-overlooked dangers of osteoporosis, this conversation is packed with insight, strategy, and science-backed solutions.Elizabeth shares the truth about hormone replacement therapy (HRT), the benefits of bioidentical hormones, and how nutrition and resistance training are your secret weapons for long-term health. We also discuss stress management, self-care, and why DEXA scans should be on every woman's radar—before there's a fracture.Whether you're just entering perimenopause, in the thick of menopause, or supporting other women who are, this episode is a masterclass in functional nutrition and women's health advocacy.Learn more about Elizabeth and her work here.Ready to take what you are learning here and start applying it to your life...consistently? My new 12 week program might be just what you need.

If fat loss was as simple as "eat less, move more," 95% of diets wouldn't fail. Yet here we are — stuck, frustrated, and confused by all the noise. In this episode, we cut through the chaos and give you the real science behind sustainable fat loss strategies that actually work long-term. We break down: ✔️ Why excessive cardio, crash diets, and over-supplementing set you up for failure ✔️ The 3 pillars of successful fat loss: flexibility over restriction, strength training over endless cardio, and lifestyle integration over obsession ✔️ Why calorie flexibility, muscle mass, and managing stress are critical to lasting results ✔️ A rapid-fire myth-busting round (spoiler: carbs aren't the enemy, and fat burners aren't magic) ✔️ A simple action plan you can start today to finally build momentum without burnout This episode isn't about quick fixes — it's about giving you the knowledge and tools to create real, lasting change. Fat loss is a skill you can learn, not a game of luck or willpower.

In this conversation with Dr. Heather Sandison, we explore what I consider to be one of medicine's most significant misunderstandings—that Alzheimer's disease, particularly in women, is an unstoppable fate.

"When you don't sleep very well, you're choosing to age faster. If you stay up for 20 hours, you've added 4 hours of damage, which means your brain is aging 25% faster. If you do this regularly, you will get neurological decline." - Dr. Kirk Parsley Get 20% Off Dr. Parsley's Sleep Remedy Sleep Remedy is designed to enhance the quality of your sleep, helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.

Why the Industrial Age affected our sleep quality. [27:35] Super Sleeper Genes Why wearable data is not actionable. How we can't change what we don't measure. Why our genes define whether or not we suffer when we get less than 8 hours of sleep. How to treat insomnia using non-sleep deep rest. Why we need to mimic what our ancestors did to sleep well.

Why the consequence of suffering was that he got tired of suffering. Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts Power Quotes From The Show Lack of Sleep = Threat? "The only animal on this planet that sleep deprives itself on purpose is us. It makes evolutionary sense that our brains perceive lack of sleep as famine or threat because there's some kind of stressor going on. That is why people who don't sleep well or don't sleep enough have higher amygdala tone and higher stress hormones." - Dr. Kirk Parsley Benefits of Sleep "It takes 8 hours to recover from being awake for 16 hours. The benefit of sleep is the hormone production, the repair, the acceleration of your immune system, the consolidation of memories, the categorization of emotional events." - Dr. Kirk Parsley Your Brain Creates Waste Products "When you go to sleep, the neurons that hold the structure of the brain contract about 30% and they create little channels for the cerebral spinal fluid to flow through. There are ways for it to clear and get outside of the blood brain barrier and get rid of your waste products. If you don't clear that, it's toxic. It's a waste product. It'd be like if you leave feces in your living room, you don't get rid of it, it's toxic. And what happens is that your brain or your body attacks it. It's like a foreign object. So it's an inflammatory response." - Dr. Kirk Parsley Links From Today's Show  Kirk Parsley MD 125 Dr. Kirk Parsley – Sleep To Win 256 Navigating Transitions In Relationships, Health, and Wealth: Dr. Kirk Parsley & Krisstina Wise 591 Dr. John Lieurance | Biohacking Big Souls: How UFC Fighters + Big Wave Surfers Holistically Heal William Dement The Upside of Stress by Kelly McGonigal MD 692 Paul Chek | Spirit Gym: How To Find The Truth of Your Soul + Live Your Dream   Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code JOSH15 PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Pulsetto - Save 20% with code "JOSH" SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH Wellness Test Kits Choose Joi - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH Blokes - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH FertilityWize Test by Clockwize - Save 10% with code JOSH Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SEED Synbiotic - 25% off with the code 25JOSHTRENT Paleovalley -  Save 15% off here!

Operating his practice and supplement business from Austin, Texas, Kirk is an avid outdoorsman and fitness enthusiast.

Kirk firmly believes that 80% of health is derived from focusing on Sleep, Nutrition, Exercise, and Stress mitigation, with a strong emphasis on Sleep. Website Instagram Facebook
