Emerging research shows that human egg cells resist mitochondrial aging, challenging the idea that menopause is irreversible Scientists have successfully reactivated dormant ovarian follicles in women with premature ovarian insufficiency using stem cell strategies and metabolic interventions Mitochondrial health, not egg depletion, may be the key to reversing menopause symptoms and restoring reproductive function Hormones like DHEA, T3, and progesterone, along with nutrients like vitamin A and E, are being studied for their role in rejuvenating ovaries These findings suggest menopause may be a reversible metabolic state — not a permanent shutdown

Drawing from years of clinical work with thousands of carnivore clients and patients, Judy Cho explains why most people struggle because they under-eat, under-fuel with fat, mismanage electrolytes, or stack too many changes at once. The discussion shares carnivore as a therapeutic elimination diet, not a weight-loss gimmick, and emphasizes clarity of goals, symptom tracking, and personalization over dogma.The episode covers how to define your “why,” eat enough food, prioritize fat as an energy source, manage electrolytes, navigate digestive and metabolic transitions, and use food-and-mood tracking to fine-tune results. It also introduces the H.O.M.E.S framework (Hormones, Output, Mood, Energy, and Sleep) as a simple way to evaluate whether this way of eating is moving you in the right direction. If you're considering carnivore for weight loss, autoimmune issues, metabolic health, or chronic illness, this episode focuses on reducing unnecessary stress, avoiding common pitfalls, and building sustainable habits that respect your body's signals rather than overriding them.Define your goalsMake sure to eat enoughFat is not optionalElectrolytesDigestion and the importance of transitionsEat the meats you enjoy while documenting in a food and mood journalIntroducing H.O.M.E.SResolution real talk_____EPISODE RESOURCES- How Much to Eat on a Carnivore Diet- Undereating Video- Carnivore Cure Book- Food and Mood Journal - Gut Healing Kit- Carnivore Elimination Diet- Gut Healing Video- Sole Water Video, How-To - Sole Water Article- Magnesium DIY Spray- Hormone Video- EFH ADH Test- EFH Personalized Health Plan - Food Addiction Article- Atomic Habits Book_____WEEKLY NEWSLETTER

Today's episode is different. I'm not giving you the same BS weight loss advice you've heard over and over again. We're getting into the messy, nuanced questions that actually come up when you're trying to lose weight in a way that's healthy, shame free, and supportive of feeling the way you want to feel.  We're talking about plateaus that seem to happen for no reason, cravings that feel out of control, hormones that complicate everything, workouts that backfire, and how to pursue weight loss without destroying your relationship with food—or yourself. And we're doing it with someone I trust deeply to hold all of that complexity: functional registered dietitian and certified personal trainer Nicki Parlitsis, who has helped thousands of people lose weight in ways that actually last. She's actually my personal RD and she's helped me lose 30 pounds in a sustainable way over the course of a year, after I got some test results that served as a wake up call in my own life.  Today's episode is going to help you create a body that feels amazing to live in. If you've ever felt confused, frustrated, or secretly ashamed for struggling with something that everyone online makes look easy—this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Hormone Genius, we are joined by expert OB/GYN Kristina Pakiz, founder of Vivify Women's Health and Fertility, for an honest, evidence-based conversation about fertility testing, specifically AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone), and what it does and does not tell women about their ability to conceive naturally. Dr. Pakiz brings years of clinical experience caring for women across the reproductive lifespan, with a special focus on restorative, patient-centered fertility care. Her approach emphasizes education, individualized evaluation, and empowering women with accurate information rather than fear-based lab interpretations. What Is AMH? AMH is a hormone produced by the granulosa cells of small, developing follicles in the ovaries. Clinically, it is often described as a marker of ovarian reserve, meaning it gives an estimate of how many recruitable follicles remain—not how well those eggs function, and not whether a woman can conceive naturally. Because AMH levels tend to decline with age, they are frequently used in fertility clinics to help predict response to ovarian stimulation in assisted reproductive technologies like IVF. Why AMH Is Not a Good Marker of Natural Fertility One of the most important takeaways from this episode is that AMH is often misunderstood and over-applied, especially in younger women. Dr. Pakiz explains that: AMH does not predict whether a woman can get pregnant naturally Women with low AMH can and do conceive spontaneously Women with high AMH may still struggle with ovulation, cycle irregularity, or other fertility barriers AMH does not assess egg quality, ovulation timing, uterine health, cervical mucus, or hormonal balance In other words, AMH reflects quantity, not function, and fertility depends on far more than follicle count. The Harm of Over-Interpreting AMH Dr. Pakiz also addresses the emotional and clinical harm that can occur when AMH is presented as a “fertility score.” Many women are told they are “running out of time” or that pregnancy is unlikely based on AMH alone, messages that are often inaccurate and unnecessarily distressing. Dr. Pakiz describes the alternative of NaproTechnology/Restorative Reproductive Medicine. Exciting NEWS!!!

If you have been dealing with brain fog, anxiety, chronic fatigue, mood changes, or symptoms that feel real but keep coming back with “normal” labs, this episode will help you understand what your brain and body are signaling beneath the surface. In today's episode, I sat down with Dr. Eboni Cornish to explore the biological roots of mental and emotional health through the lens of neuroinflammation. We discuss how chronic stress, hidden infections, toxins, and gut imbalances can disrupt brain function, hormones, and mood, often long before conventional testing catches it. We also talk about why conditions like Lyme disease and autoimmune patterns are frequently missed, how the gut-brain connection shapes mental health, and why cleansing without restoration can keep people stuck. Dr. Eboni Cornish is a physician specializing in brain health and neuroinflammation, with a focus on integrating neuroscience, functional medicine, and compassionate, whole-person care. What's Discussed: (00:02) Why brain fog, anxiety, and fatigue can exist even when labs look normal (06:00) How chronic stress becomes biological and impacts brain function (11:00) Why cleansing without restoration can keep healing stuck (15:55) What it means to view mental health as measurable brain biology (21:30) Neuroinflammation, anxiety, and the gut–brain connection (30:40) Hidden toxins and infections driving chronic symptoms in women (35:50) Why Lyme and chronic infections are often misdiagnosed (53:20) Hormones, perimenopause, and protecting long-term brain health Thank You to Our Sponsors: Sunlighten: Experience the healing power of light for yourself.

Is ongoing hair loss more than just aging or genetics? More than 35 million men and 21 million women experience hair loss to some degree. Pharmacist and physician liaison, Bryana Gregory, takes a root-cause approach to understanding hair loss and hair regrowth. She explains how factors like hormonal imbalance, nutrient deficiencies, chronic stress, thyroid dysfunction, inflammation, and post-viral immune stress can disrupt the natural hair growth cycle and lead to excessive shedding. Hair loss is often the result of the body prioritizing survival over auxiliary functions like hair growth, especially during periods of prolonged inflammation.   Bryana introduces a proprietary compounded Hair Support Solution designed to address both hair loss and regrowth simultaneously. This topical formulation combines three synergistic ingredients to support circulation, collagen production, and follicle regeneration, and help reactivate dormant hair follicles. Together, these ingredients work locally at the scalp without systemic absorption, supporting healthier follicles and longer growth phases.   The episode also emphasizes the importance of supporting hair health through proper nutrition, adequate protein intake, stress management, and avoiding inflammatory hair products. Bryana explains how consistent topical use, combined with lifestyle awareness, can help restore balance at the follicular level. For those experiencing chronic hair thinning, post-COVID hair loss, or hormone-related shedding, this compounded solution offers a targeted, physician-guided option for addressing hair loss at its source.   Watch now and subscribe to our podcasts at www.HotzePodcast.com.   To receive a FREE copy of Dr. Hotze's best-selling book, “Hormones, Health, and Happiness,” call 281-698-8698 and mention this podcast.

Welcome to Part Two of the Best of The Life Stylist Podcast 2025. This episode is both a reflection and a deep thank-you to the listeners who continue to choose long-form conversation, nuance, and depth in a world built on distraction and noise.In this curated collection, we revisit some of the most expansive and boundary-pushing conversations of the year—dialogues that venture into territory most shows won't touch.

Most men are not failing because they lack effort. They are failing because their system does not fit their life.As I sit down with Eric Bach, we break down why driven men starting in their late 30s stop seeing progress, despite doing all the right things on paper. Eric has coached elite athletes and now works with busy parents and business owners who want results without burning out. We talk about why execution beats complexity, how real progress comes from nailing the basics consistently, smarter training for longevity, simplifying nutrition with the A.D.E. framework, and why sleep is one of the most overlooked performance tools of our health. This conversation is about building a training system that you can actually sustain.Stop spinning your wheels and start training in a way that supports your work, family, and long-term health — Tune in now.—--------------------Timestamp:00:00 – Episode Preview01:02 – Podcast Introduction01:32 – Eric Bach's Background02:48 – Coaching Busy Professionals04:03 – Training Principles vs Methods05:43 – Training as You Get Older07:12 – Coaching Experience Matters09:41 – Matching Training to Life11:20 – Stress and Recovery Balance13:11 – The A.D.E.

What if your skin isn’t the problem—but the messenger? Could breakouts, hormonal imbalances, and low confidence all trace back to the same root cause? And what if healing your skin wasn’t about adding more products—but understanding your body’s signals? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Clearstem co-founders Danielle Gronich and Kayleigh Christina for an eye-opening conversation on how to truly heal acne from the inside out. Danielle shares her years-long struggle with cystic acne and the frustration of endless prescriptions that never worked, while Kayleigh opens up about the emotional toll of post-birth-control breakouts that left her hiding from the world. Together, they unpack the deeper connection between hormones, gut health, and skin—and why “clean” doesn’t always mean “acne-safe.” They also dive into how stress, sleep, diet, and hidden ingredients in skincare (and even haircare) can trigger breakouts—and the small, sustainable changes that can make a big difference. In this episode, you’ll learn: The truth about birth control, antibiotics, and what they do to your hormones Why exfoliation isn’t optional—and how to do it right The most common pore-clogging ingredients hiding in your skincare and makeup How to support your body’s detox and hormone balance naturally The foods and supplements that may secretly be sabotaging your skin Why healing acne starts with awareness, not perfection If you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck, this episode is your reminder: your skin isn’t the enemy—it’s your body asking you to listen.

There comes a point when you start to notice patterns. Your skin flares after certain meals, bloating lingers through the week, and your body feels a little more reactive than it used to. Especially in midlife, it is easy to wonder: Is it hormones, stress, aging, or something deeper happening in the gut? Dr. Mina sits down with Dr. Pia Prakash, a board-certified gastroenterologist and passionate educator on gut health. Together, they unpack the science behind the gut microbiome, inflammation, leaky gut, SIBO, diet patterns, perimenopause, and why conditions like acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and hidradenitis often flare alongside digestive symptoms. You will learn what truly supports gut health (hint: not a cleanse), how antibiotics and alcohol factor in, and why midlife can bring new skin and GI changes.

DHEA was first identified in 1931 by Dr. Adolf Butenandt, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1939. Frequently called “the anti-aging hormone”, DHEA is a base for more than 50 hormones that are smaller or more specific carbon chain molecules in human biochemistry. As a precursor for all estrogenic and androgenic hormones, humans make DHEA naturally from birth.It's now well established that chronic stress leads to an out-pouring of cortisol and with that, a gradual depletion of DHEA. DHEA is a prohormone – a natural building block for hormones our bodies make.Over time, this hormonal imbalance can lead to brain fog, thinning bones, weight gain, low sex drive and poor Immune function.Maintaining proper DHEA levels in the body is important to your overall health and may lead to Increased energy, enhanced mood and focus, sound sleep, and better letting skin.Guest: Joining us today is Hugh Woodward, He is the President of Health2Go, Inc the makers of Twist 25 DHEA cream. Hugh is a subject matter expert on DHEA dedicating nearly 2 decades of his life studying the medical research about it, and starting a company to research, develop the safest most effective DHEA supplement that can be made and distributing it.In 2007 Mr. Woodward started Health2Go, Inc. to research and develop leading edge anti-aging and wellness products and bring them to people conveniently and cost effectively.Quality matters when supplementing with DHEA.Twist 25 DHEA Cream puts exactly what the body makes naturally – bioidentical DHEA -in the skin, where the body processes DHEA.  As a base building block for hormones, DHEA gives the body a key foundation it uses to make hormones, (especially the androgens our feel-good hormones.)Visit Twist25.com to learn more and order online.

“It takes more than hormones to fix our hormones.” - Dr. Anna CabecaWhen it comes to vaginal health, pelvic floor health, and incontinence issues, hormones play a critial role. From the type of hormones to oral formulations, injections, and topicals, there are a lot of options for hormone therapy, from the delivery vehicle to the forms of hormones used.At the same time, you can't optimize hormone health through hormone replacement only. We have to take a holistic picture, starting with the gut, lifestyle, and stress management. This approach enables the body to resuscitate, repair, and rejuvenate itself, allowing it to function at its peak. At this point, hormone therapy can offer a complementary supporting role, increasing the opportunity for optimal health and wellness.Today's guest, triple board-certified OB-GYN Dr. Anna Cabeca, has been working with women in midlife for decades, and she's an advocate for a holistic approach to hormone support, which she calls hormone replenishment.In this episode, Dr. Anna and I discuss when to start thinking about supporting your hormones, the connection between gut health and hormone balance, the need for personalized treatment appraoches, detoxification pathways, and the use of topical hormones, Dr. Cabeca's products for women in midlife, how her patients have improved their vaginal health and reversed incontinence in post-menopause, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!---Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/getting-nerdy-about-hormones-topical-transdermal-oral-oh-my-with-dr-anna-cabeca-do/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).Find and follow us @integrativewomenshealth on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@integrativewomenshealth) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/integrativewomenshealth/).

The Secret Sauce for Shedding Pounds isn't just about diet or workouts—it's your liver. In this episode, Nurse Doza breaks down how your liver impacts fat loss through detox, blood sugar regulation, hormone balance, inflammation reduction, and mindset. If you're stuck in your weight loss journey, your liver may be the key. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS The liver produces antioxidants like glutathione that directly reduce inflammation and support fat metabolism. Hormone balance—especially estrogen and cortisol regulation—depends on liver health. Blood sugar regulation starts with the liver, which stores and processes glucose after meals. Fat cells become inflamed without proper liver function, leading to leptin resistance and weight gain. Sustainable fat loss requires mindset shifts—and liver support helps you regain control.

Balancing the gut microbiome can transform the body's entire internal terrain—regulating immune function, reducing inflammation, influencing metabolism, and impacting brain health through the gut-brain axis. These interconnected systems play a critical role in the prevention and potential reversal of chronic illness. In this episode, Tee sits down with Martha Carlin, a pioneering citizen scientist and systems researcher who has spent the past decade uncovering the hidden links between the microbiome, chronic disease, and environmental toxins. After her husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, Martha left a successful corporate career to investigate the deeper drivers of neurodegeneration and metabolic dysfunction, starting in the gut. Martha is the founder and CEO of The BioCollective, an innovative microbiome research company that has collaborated with leading institutions, including Caltech, the University of Chicago, and University College Cork. Her team developed the BioFlux™ metabolic modeling system and Sugar Shift®, a patented probiotic that has been clinically shown to reduce endotoxin (LPS), improve insulin resistance, and increase microbiome diversity. Throughout the conversation, Martha and Tee emphasize the importance of mindful choices around diet, water consumption, and reducing exposure to harmful chemicals to support a resilient microbiome. The episode delivers practical, science-backed insights for anyone seeking better overall health, with particular relevance for women focused on hormone balance, metabolic health, and long-term wellness.

In this episode, Dee Davidson, FDN-P, sits down with Nora Cryan, co-owner and coach at Confidence Fitness, to talk about what fitness really needs to look like in midlife and beyond.This is not a conversation about quick fixes, extreme workouts, or chasing weight loss at all costs.Instead, Dee and Nora explore a holistic, sustainable approach to fitness that supports hormones, metabolism, joint health, nervous system regulation, and long-term vitality — especially for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.They discuss why many people feel frustrated when “doing all the right things” in the gym yet not seeing results, and how stress, recovery, nutrition, and training style all play a role in whether fitness is actually helping or hurting your health.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why fitness is essential for maintaining health, strength, and independence as we ageHow training needs change in midlife to support hormones and recoveryCommon mistakes women make with exercise that backfire long-termWhy more workouts or harder workouts aren't always betterThe role of strength training, mobility, and consistencyHow fitness should complement nutrition, sleep, and stress managementWhat a sustainable, results-driven training approach actually looks likeNora shares her perspective from years of coaching clients at Confidence Fitness in Attleboro, MA, emphasizing individualized programming, proper movement, and building strength that lasts — not just aesthetics.This episode is for anyone who wants to feel strong, capable, and energized — not burned out — and understands that true health is built through consistent, aligned habits over time, not shortcuts.

In today's episode, I break down one of the most misunderstood hormones in health and weight regulation — the storage hormone — and why understanding it can completely change how you think about cravings, fat storage, emotional eating, and food freedom.This conversation goes way beyond “what to eat.” I dive into how your mind, your nervous system, and your hormones work together to either keep you trapped in cycles of cravings… or set you free.Why There Is No One-Size-Fits-All DietHere's the truth: every single person responds to hormones differently. That means the same foods can trigger more storage in some bodies than others — and it's never about willpower.I explain why:The same food can create completely different blood sugar and insulin responses in different people.Comparing your eating to someone else's will always disconnect you from your own body.True nourishment is personal — not prescriptive.This is exactly why dieting based on rules, calories, or “good vs bad” foods never leads to peace.Meet the Storage Hormone (and Its Partner in Crime)The storage hormone I talk about today is insulin — and its job is simple:When insulin is circulating, your body stores energy.When insulin is high, fat can't be released.But here's the part most people miss: insulin doesn't work alone. I explain how insulin teams up with cortisol, the stress hormone, and how stress-driven cravings can keep your body stuck in storage mode — even when you're “eating healthy.”Insulin Is Triggered by More Than FoodOne of the most powerful insights I share: insulin is released not just by what you eat — but by anticipation.That means thinking about food, restricting food, waiting for your “cheat meal,” or feeling scarcity around food… can all trigger insulin before you even take a bite.This explains why dieting, tracking, and constantly focusing on food often make cravings worse instead of better.Cravings, Blood Sugar & Emotional EatingI break down the craving cycle:Stress or emotion triggers cortisolCortisol drives the desire for quick sugarInsulin stores that sugarBlood sugar crashesCravings returnThis loop keeps you eating, snacking, and thinking about food all day — not because you're broken, but because your body is trying to survive.Sugar Burner vs Fat BurnerYou'll learn how to recognize if your body is stuck in “sugar-burning” mode:Constant snackingFeeling cranky when hungryEnergy crashesTrouble sleepingFeeling disconnected from your stored energyYou cannot become a fat burner through restriction or force — only through nourishment, safety, and nervous system regulation.The Power of Nourishment (Not Just Nutrition)I invite you to shift your language — and your energy — around food. Instead of asking:“What should I eat?”“Is this healthy?”“How many calories is this?”Ask instead: “How can I nourish myself right now?”Nourishment includes:FoodRestSleepRecoveryEmotional safetyNervous system regulationWhen nourishment leads, cravings quiet naturally.Why Hormone Healing Starts in the MindHere's the big picture: hormones respond to perception. Stress starts in the mind. Anticipation starts in the mind. Healing starts in the mind.You can't isolate one hormone, one behavior, or one food and expect lasting change. True food freedom comes from addressing the whole person.Key TakeawaysThere is no universal “right” way to eatInsulin is influenced by stress, anticipation, and thoughtsCravings are biological — not moralRestriction fuels insulin dysregulationNourishment creates safetyCompassion creates changeFinal ReflectionWhen you stop trying to control food…When you stop fighting your body…When you learn to nourish instead of restrict…Weight, cravings, and food obsession lose their power — as a natural side effect.You don't need another diet. You need safety, understanding, and peace with food.

Cholesterol, Bile Flow & Statins: The Hidden Drivers of Metabolic Slowdown What Low Cholesterol Really Means for Hormones, Detox & Energy Most people think lowering cholesterol is always "good"… But when your cholesterol gets pushed too low — especially from medications like statins — your metabolism can quietly shut down from the inside out. In Part 2 of this FutureYou Blueprint™ series, Coach Debbie Potts reveals the bile–detox–hormone connection behind cholesterol, and why sluggish bile flow is one of the earliest drivers of metabolic dysfunction. You'll learn:

Today at Health Youniversity we're exploring the critical connection between hormonal health and mental well-being.Join Dr. Susan as she sits down with Dr. Lauren LaRose, a board-certified child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist who practices integrative psychiatry in the New Orleans area. Dr. LaRose shares her deeply personal journey with hormonal imbalances that began at age 11 and profoundly impacted both her fertility and mental health for decades.From suffering through 15 years on birth control that caused anhedonia (the inability to feel pleasure) and depressive symptoms, to experiencing two devastating miscarriages before discovering a simple progesterone deficiency, to finally being diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroidism after multiple doctors dismissed her symptoms—Dr. LaRose's story illuminates why conventional medicine often falls short when it comes to hormone health.Now, as a psychiatrist treating adolescent girls and women, Dr. LaRose has transformed her practice. Instead of defaulting to birth control or psychiatric medications alone, she educates patients and parents about how hormone imbalances affect neurochemical levels and manifest as mood disorders. She helps identify cyclical mood patterns, collaborates with functional medicine practitioners, and empowers patients to address root causes rather than masking symptoms.This episode is essential for adolescent girls and women experiencing mood swings around their cycles, anyone struggling with anxiety or depression alongside period problems, parents of teenage daughters facing mental health challenges, women dealing with infertility and mood symptoms, and healthcare providers seeking a more integrative approach to mental health.Website: https://linktr.ee/thelittlebraincampaign 

In this episode, I share how I have been supporting my hormones over the past year as I reflect on being in early perimenopause (??!!). I talk through the mistakes I made, the tests that gave me the most useful insight, and the simple food, lifestyle and nervous system actions that made a real difference to my hormones, energy and cycle. I also share a short reflection on the year as a whole and what it has taught me about slowing down and listening to my body. This is an honest, practical episode for women in early perimenopause who want grounded guidance rather than overwhelm.

Today, I'm thrilled to reconnect with Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, a board-certified endocrinologist and obesity medicine specialist with more than 15 years of clinical experience, widely recognized as one of the earliest adopters of GLP-1 therapies in the United States. She is also the author of the upcoming book Weightless: A Comprehensive Guide to the New Era of GLP-1 Medications. In our discussion, we explore the transgenerational impact of obesity as a complex, chronic, and deeply multifactorial condition. We discuss the effects of environmental exposures and trauma, the essential role of education in overcoming weight-loss resistance and managing obesity, and the physiological changes women experience in the perimenopause-to-menopause transition. We explain the importance of body positivity and image, reframing our thoughts around obesity and being overweight, and why building and maintaining muscle is non-negotiable. We dive into the physiology of GLP-1 medications and specific targets for women in perimenopause and menopause, ways to address weight-loss stalls, and the effects of the weight bias so deeply entrenched in our society. Dr. Salas Whalen also shares her thoughts on alternatives and additions to GLP-1 therapies, clarifying the importance of protein and strength training while using GLP-1 drugs.  This conversation with Dr. Salas-Whalen is truly invaluable, and I highly recommend her upcoming book, Weightless. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: • What people come to understand about “normal eating” after starting GLP-1s • How GLP-1s interrupt the binge–guilt–shame cycle • The role GLP-1s play in helping people stay in control of food rather than letting food control them • Strategies for avoiding side effects when using GLP-1 medications • Why certain foods trigger problems on injection days • Importance of proper guidance to prevent severe side effects • The impact a prescriber's guidance has on your success with GLP-1s • Why treatment plans must be tailored to each patient's needs and metabolism • Factors doctors consider when deciding whether to add additional medications to a GLP-1 plan Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community (The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow)  Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!

This episode is part of The Best of Habits & Hustle, a series where I revisit some of the most impactful conversations we've shared. In this one, I sit down with Dr. Mary Claire Haver to break down what's happening during perimenopause and menopause and why so many women are left confused and guessing. We get into why estrogen matters far beyond hot flashes, how muscle loss and belly fat accelerate in midlife, and why strength training becomes non-negotiable as women age.  She cuts through the fear and misinformation around hormone therapy, who it's really for, and why women deserve better conversations with their doctors.She also shares a no-BS take on testosterone for women, GLP-1 medications, and why there are no shortcuts if you want to protect muscle, metabolism, and long-term health.  Dr. Mary Claire Haver is a board-certified OB-GYN, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The New Menopause, and founder of The ‘Pause Life.

With the holidays in full swing and the New Year just around the corner, we're reflecting on all the great times we've had in 2025. Kick back and enjoy these highlights from the past year as we take a little winter break!

In this episode of the Marni On The Move podcast, Marni Salup syncs up with Terry Chang and Dr. Ulrike Kaunzner, co-founders of Two Moons Health, for an in-depth conversation on seed cycling, cycle syncing, and hormone awareness through a practical, science-informed lens. The discussion begins with a clear overview of seed cycling, what it is, how it works, and why this  approach to hormonal support are resonating with so many women today. Terry and Dr. Kaunzner share the inspiration behind building Two Moons Health and the gaps they saw in women's health education and care that led them to create a more accessible and supportive solution. The conversation explores how hormones shift throughout the menstrual cycle, with particular focus on PMS, why symptoms can look different from person to person, and why normalization should never mean dismissal. Marni and her guests discuss the benefits of seed cycling products, the challenges and opportunities within the women's health space, and the importance of responsible education and transparency. They also dive into the role of community in women's health, why shared experience matters, and how connection can drive awareness and empowerment. The founders share their own personal health practices and what they've learned from navigating hormonal health in real life. The episode also explores common hormonal health protocols, when they may be helpful, and why personalization is key. Practical advice is offered for women who want to become more aware of their hormonal patterns, including how to track cycles, understand symptoms, and know when to seek additional medical support. The conversation includes guidance on hormone testing, how to use data as information rather than judgment, and why tracking can be especially valuable for women experiencing PMS or hormonal shifts. The episode also touches on hormonal education for teenagers and the importance of early awareness. The conversation concludes with the vision for Two Moons Health and how the brand plans to continue supporting women through education, intentional nutrition, and community-building CONNECT Two Moons Health On Instagram Marni On The Move Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, or YouTube` Marni Salup on Instagram and Playlist on Spotify SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER Sign up for our monthly newsletter, Do What Moves You, for Marni on the Move updates, exclusive offers, invites to events, and exciting news!

Most TRT clinics don't have a testosterone problem—they have a standards problem. In this solo episode, Dave Lee recaps a month of travel and teaching (Melbourne's Trinitas Trade Expo and the Silverback Summit in Orlando) and shares what still shocks him every time he steps outside his “echo chamber”: the abysmally low standard of care that has become normal in men's health—globally. Dave breaks down the biggest TRT red flags he's seeing in December 2025, including: The “Burger, Fries, and Coke” protocol: a cookie-cutter combo of testosterone + AI + hCG sold by default because it's profitable—not because it's indicated Clinics using fear-based selling (“You'll get infertile,” “You'll grow boobs”) to upsell ancillaries before you even know what you need Minimal lab work that only checks if you “qualify,” not what's actually driving symptoms (and why comprehensive assessment matters) The newer trend: clinics that push peptides on everyone—often as trendy add-ons rather than targeted tools tied to a real need Why prophylactic aromatase inhibitor use is one of the clearest warning signs of poor care The red flag that shows up later: no real follow-up, support, or education—leaving you to crowdsource your health online This episode is a practical checklist for anyone considering TRT (or already on it) who wants to identify clinics that prioritize outcomes over upsells—and find care that's individualized, evidence-informed, and actually supportive.

Happy Christmas, Heal Squad! With 2026 just being a week away, we're revisiting one of our most practical and empowering conversations to help you reset your health the right way. This throwback episode originally kicked off 2025 with a fresh approach to fitness and nutrition, and the lessons are even more relevant now. Maria sits down with fitness coach, nutritionist, and chef Christina Gomez to break down how women should actually be training and fueling their bodies as hormones change. From why high-intensity workouts may be working against you, to how strength training, isometrics, and cortisol-friendly movement can support metabolism, energy, and longevity, this episode reframes everything we've been taught about fitness. If your 2026 goals include feeling stronger, less stressed, more balanced, and more in tune with your body (not burned out by it), this throwback is the perfect way to reset, refocus, and build habits that actually last.

With the holidays in full swing and the New Year just around the corner, we're reflecting on all the great times we've had in 2025. Kick back and enjoy these highlights from the past year as we take a little winter break! The Tyler Robinson rooftop sniper hoax is crumbling after video evidence showing Israel's signature exploding lavalier mic blasting Charlie Kirk's throat, with accomplices snatching the bomb and detonator like pros in a heist. These Mossad monsters, fresh off their pager terrorism, think they can off Americans and have our puppet FBI bury it like JFK— but we're ripping the veil off this demonic plot, patriots, so lock and load for the truth bomb that's gonna make these pedo-perps pay.  

We have another AMA episode today, where I answer some of the most frequently asked podcast listener questions. In response to a question from Catherine, we unpack the timing hypothesis in this episode, exploring the cardiovascular nuances and clarifying why individualized care truly matters. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Cardiovascular and metabolic benefits of starting hormone therapy within about 10 years of menopause onset What the timing hypothesis really means in clinical practice Why feeling better does not necessarily imply long-term disease risk has been reduced How endothelial (blood vessel) health influences the effectiveness of hormone therapy  Why metabolic changes after menopause matter more than most women realize How their hormone therapy decisions must change as women move further beyond menopause  Risks and benefits of oral versus transdermal hormone delivery Value of shared patient-clinician decision-making  How lifestyle habits and risk assessment form the foundation for safe, effective, and personalized hormone therapy decisions Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community: The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow  Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!
