Dr. Crawford opens up about her journey from growing up in poverty to becoming a nationally recognized naturopathic physician dedicated to empowering women with real answers. She explains why most women enter menopause already hormonally imbalanced—and why a "just do HRT" approach is not only incomplete but can be ineffective or harmful. This episode breaks down the stress response system, the pre-hormone system, and why accurate hormone ratio testing is the missing key to helping women reclaim their energy, mood, and mental clarity. Dr. Crawford outlines her proven six-month protocol, designed to repair hormone production at the root. Whether you're navigating hormonal changes, burnout, or searching for answers your doctor can't explain, this episode will leave you informed, empowered, and hopeful.

She is a strong proponent of HRT - where applicable.She just relocated her practice to the Flat Iron district in Manhattan. And - being usually a step ahead, now also offers individual health plans for men.Enjoy this lively and informative episode.

What if everything you've been told about menopause is wrong? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mary Claire Haver — board-certified OB/GYN and leading menopause expert — to unpack the science reshaping women's health. We break down the FDA's recent removal of the 22-year black box warning on hormone therapy, why only 4% of women use HRT today, and how fear and misinformation have shaped decades of care. Dr. Haver also dives into the rise of menopause “biohacks,” from NAD and PRP to the fundamentals that truly move the needle: sleep, strength training, and metabolic health. Her message is simple: Menopause isn't a disease — it's a transition, and you deserve informed, evidence-based support. If you've ever felt dismissed or confused during midlife changes, this conversation will give you clarity, confidence, and the science to advocate for yourself.

Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:04:51] You've been open about how your own cancer journey reshaped your approach to health. Can you share a bit about that experience and how it led you to the work you do now? [00:19:26] You talk a lot about the power of small shifts — what does that mean in practice, and why do you think women often overlook the little things? [00:24:50] What are a few of those small shifts that can make the biggest difference for women going through perimenopause or menopause? [00:28:15] You often say healing doesn't have to be hard. What are some ways women can make lifestyle changes feel easier and more sustainable? [00:30:28] How do you help women move from frustration or fear about their bodies into confidence and trust again? [00:34:07] You're also hosting the Holistic Menopause Solutions Summit — how does that event tie into the message you're sharing here today?

Joining me this week is therapist and the author of the new book Millennial Menopause: Preparing for Perimenopause, Menopause, and Life's Next Period, Lauren A. Tetenbaum.   Together we explore:   - The perimenopause symptoms that often begin in your 30s and 40s, long before your period stops. - How hormonal changes affect your mood, identity, relationships, and sense of self — and why understanding this can be profoundly grounding. - Why perimenopause isn't just a "women's issue," but a family and cultural one, impacting partners, kids, and the emotional climate of a home. - How to talk to your kids (yes, including your sons!) about menstruation, menopause, and the full arc of reproductive life in ways that reduce shame and build empathy. - Practical strategies for navigating this transition, including how to advocate for yourself with healthcare providers, what kinds of support actually help, and how to build a mental health plan that works for your body and life.   Our message is simple but powerful: when women understand what's happening in their bodies and get the support they deserve, they're able to move through this transition with more confidence, steadiness, and compassion for themselves and the people they love.     LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:

Adenomyosis is a condition in which the uterine lining grows into the muscular wall of the uterus, often causing heavy menstrual bleeding, severe cramping, and chronic pelvic pain. It is estimated to affect 25–60% of women worldwide. Despite its prevalence, treatment options in North America remain extremely limited. Many patients are forced to choose between long-term opioid pain management or a hysterectomy, options that can significantly impact quality of life. In this episode of Curing with Sound, we speak with Dr. Vanda Corbett, a healthcare practitioner who endured decades of debilitating adenomyosis-related pain before discovering focused ultrasound. She first learned about this noninvasive treatment after listening to an episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause podcast featuring Suzanne LeBlang, MD, the Foundation's Director of Clinical Relationships.  Determined to find an alternative to surgery or opioids, Dr. Corbett made the life-changing decision to travel from Dubai to Chongqing Haifu Hospital in China for a focused ultrasound procedure. Her transformative experience has motivated her to share her story, so more women can learn about this revolutionary noninvasive treatment option. Discussion highlights: Medical Travel Experience: Follow Dr. Corbett's journey from Dubai to Chongqing, including the preparation process, travel logistics, and the patient-centered care she received at a specialized focused ultrasound hospital. Immediate Treatment Results and Advocacy Mission: Discover how Dr. Corbett experienced complete pain relief within hours of her procedure, shifting from decades of debilitating symptoms to a return to normal daily life. Learn about her mission to raise awareness of adenomyosis and the potential of focused ultrasound through storytelling and social media.

Does December always feel like the month where your workouts quietly slide into "I'll start again in January"? You're not alone, friend — and it's exactly why I'm popping in with this quick fitness bonus episode. Here's the truth: movement really is medicine for a midlife body. But when life gets full (and it always does this time of year), even the most determined woman ends up pushing her workouts to "later." And you and I both know… later usually becomes next year. That's why I created 31 Days of Fitmas — a full month of simple, strategic workouts built for your hormones, your energy, and your real life. No overthinking. No decision fatigue. Just press play and move with me. Inside this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how these workouts support belly fat loss, strength building, and steady, consistent habits… even during the busiest season. If you're craving a plan that feels doable — one that helps you stay strong instead of starting over — this is your invitation.  

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced last week that it would remove the “black box” warning labels on hormone therapy for menopause.These labels, which show up on medication packaging, warn of the risks of heart attack, breast cancer, stroke and blood clots. But the FDA now says these risks are based on outdated science.Tuesday on Midday Edition, we hear what this could mean for menopause treatment going forward, and what to know about hormone therapy more broadly.Guest:Dr. Kathryn Macaulay, clinical professor, OB-GYN, director of UC San Diego Menopause Health programResources mentioned:The Menopause Society

Is menopause more than just mood swings, night sweats, and weight changes? What if this transformative life stage also unlocks a hidden immune wildfire—turning on or worsening autoimmune conditions?In this episode of the Paloma podcast, we unravel the surprising connection between menopause and autoimmune disease, diving deep into how the drop in estrogen and shifting hormones could reshape your immune landscape. Based on insights from Paloma Health, we'll explore how declining ovarian hormones can influence T cells, inflammation, and the potential onset or flare of conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Here's what you'll hear:The science behind how estrogen loss during menopause impacts immune regulation—and why that matters. Why some autoimmune symptoms may *emerge* around menopause, even if you've never had one. Why others might actually feel some relief — and how inflammation and hormone therapy play both roles. Important strategies for managing immunity during menopause: what to track, which biomarkers to test, and how to partner with your healthcare team. Whether you're navigating menopause and worried about autoimmune risk, or already living with an autoimmune condition and wondering how this hormonal shift will affect you — this episode shines a light on the immune-hormone crossroads many don't talk about.

In today's episode, I spill the juicy details of my wild jury duty experience as Juror #1! From getting called in for a criminal case, making friends with the court security guard, to the intense courtroom drama, I've got a lot to share! You'll learn about the crazy court schedule, the stressful selection process, and the shocking moments during the trial. Why did the defendant and victim still show up together? And what made this case so heart-wrenching?

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode!Menopause can feel like your body changed the rulebook without warning. One day you're handling pressure just fine; the next, a slammed door spikes your heart rate and your mind won't quit. I pull back the curtain on why stress tolerance can collapse at midlife and how to rebuild it with smarter hormone care, steadier blood sugar, and nervous system-aware tools that actually fit real life.I grow tired of experts telling us to control our stress.  Or limit our stress.  This is nonsensical to me because we can only mitigate the effects stress has on our bodies and we can't make it disappear.  Ignoring it, numbing it, also doesn't work at menopause. I have MANY different tools to help mitigate the effects of stress. NuCalm is a tool I've been using for many years now.  I was one of their early supporters and affiliates, and I remain a big believer.  Use this link for a free trial!!  And if you love it, use SANDYK for a discount.https://nucalm.com/free-trial?ref=sandy54Email me your questions, topics, or comments to be featured on my show - whether anonymous or not - your choice.  sandy@sandyknutrition.ca.Follow me on all of my socials - @sandyknutrition everywhere.Who am I? I don't define myself by my past, but it's a big part of my story. In 2010, my five-year-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer, and just a year later, I was too, but with thyroid cancer at 41. Fast forward to now, at 55, I'm navigating menopause and constantly learning what it truly means to thrive - body, mind, spirit and soul - to this next chapter of my life.Along the way, I went back to college, became a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, earned numerous certifications, and started this podcast just before the pandemic. I come to you not only as a practitioner and a podcaster, but as a woman who's lived it, someone driven by passion over profit, and a genuine desire to help others heal, grow, and live with more vitality, purpose, and joy.Beyond the basics, I spotlight underused supports. Adaptogens can help some, but they won't fix trauma or misaligned hormones. I also lean into the deeper layer: how menopause can surface old beliefs and hypervigilance, and  about BEAM Therapy.

This episode breaks down how undereating is quietly wrecking the metabolism of women in their 50s. I'm sharing the real story of a woman named Carol, who came to me stuck, frustrated, and convinced her menopause belly was permanent.Carol was living on 1,000 to 1,200 calories a day, cutting carbs, avoiding foods she loved, and pushing through exhaustion because she thought that was the only way to lose weight. Instead, her metabolism downshifted, her energy crashed, her sleep worsened, her belly grew, and nothing she tried moved the scale.In this episode, I walk through exactly why this happens, the myths that keep women stuck, and how to actually repair a metabolism that's been suppressed from years of undereating. You'll learn the signs your metabolism needs help, why carbs are essential for women in menopause, and how a reverse diet can completely change the way your body responds to fat loss.If you see yourself in Carol's story, this episode will help you understand what's going on inside your body and what to do next.And if you want to learn how we reverse diet our clients out of this situation then join me for my Festive AF Masterclass.

As we explore this vital subject, I emphasize the uniqueness of each individual's journey through hormonal shifts, whether during perimenopause, menopause, or even monthly cycles. Recognizing the natural ebb and flow of hormonal changes, I reassure listeners that they are not "broken" or "losing it"—rather, their bodies are in a transformative phase, prompting a deeper understanding and connection to self.I lay the foundation by discussing the physiological impacts of fluctuating hormone levels and outline how these changes can manifest as various emotional and physical sensations. The transition can trigger new feelings of anxiety, identity crises, and insights into how one's life roles have evolved. It's essential to approach these transitions with curiosity, as understanding the interplay between hormones, stress, and emotional well-being can empower women during this compelling time.Commencing with an intimate exploration of the effects of estrogen and progesterone, I highlight how these hormones influence mood and anxiety levels. Listeners are encouraged to recognize that increased anxiety during these transitions is not a sign of weakness but rather a normal physiological response. I present practical strategies for self-care, including breathing techniques and grounding exercises, to help ease anxiety and cultivate a nurturing relationship with oneself. By advocating for slow exhale breathing, comforting mantras, and gentle physical practices, I offer tools that can aid women in navigating this sensitive phase with grace.#Perimenopause, #Menopause, #MidlifeAnxiety, #HormonalAnxiety, #WomensHealth, #TheChangeOfLife, #AnxietyRelief, #MidlifeTransition, #Recalibration, #IdentityShift, #Estrogen, #Progesterone, #NervousSystem, #StressManagement, #PrioritizeSleep, #SelfCare, #SetBoundaries, #GABA, #SlowExhale, #YouAreNotBroken, #GinaRyan, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #ChristianeNorthrup, #FemininePower, #NotLosingIt, #AnxietySupport, #MentalWellness, #StressRelief, #MindBodyConnection, #LifeTransitions, #SelfCompassion, #NervousSystemRegulation, #EmotionalHealth, #HealthJourney, #PersonalGrowth, #SelfHelp, #InnerPeace, #Midlife, #HormoneHealth, #WellbeingJourney, #DeepBreathing, #GroundingTechniques, #MentalClarity, #Recalibration, #ItsOkayToStruggle, #FindingYourCenter, #PodcastForAnxiety, #AuthenticSelf, #ChangingRhythms #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hormone Health and HRT: Understanding the Truth Beyond Myths of Menopause with guest expert Dr. Sarah DacarrettThere is way too much confusion and misinformation circling around menopause right now. So, this episode cuts through the noise and gets you the answers you need. Right now.Hormones affect everything—your mood, sleep, energy, and more. And during menopause, things can get a little... wild.There's a lot of noise out there when it comes to Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), and not all of it is trueIn this episode, you will learn:Impact of the 2002 Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study on HRT perceptionsMisconceptions about HRT causing breast cancer—what science actually saysWhy early hormone health education is crucial before menopauseHormones as master regulators of overall health and agingWhen and why women should discuss HRT seriously with their doctorsHRT benefits for women undergoing menopause and perimenopauseSafety and use of vaginal suppository HRT for breast cancer survivorsSystemic nature of vaginal hormone delivery and its implicationsComparing patches, oral pills, and vaginal HRT: risks and benefitsBalancing risk versus benefit in hormonal treatments like birth controlThe concept of “post birth control syndrome” and its health impactsThe importance of patient informed consent and understanding treatment trade-offsRole of the breasts and uterus in hormone metabolism, beyond the liverIodine's role in hormone metabolism and managing breast and menstrual symptomsModern iodine deficiency compared to ancestral diets and its health consequences… And much more!ABOUT OUR GUEST EXPERT: Dr. Sarah Daccarett is dedicated to ensuring your symptoms are no longer mis-diagnosed or ignored.Dr. Dacarrett says, “In my mid-thirties after the birth of my son, my hormone levels never recovered.After trying every available product, I realized there were NO solutions specifically to meet the needs of younger women who want to feel young and vibrant again.I invented the Inner Balance protocol and Oestra because I needed it. I also realized that I wasn't alone - that hormone levels decline drastically in our 30s - NOT when our period stops in our 50s like we have been told.Women every day suffer from endometriosis, PCOS, postpartum depression, effects of birth control, hair loss, depression, fatigue, and a whole host of health problems due to low estrogen and progesterone.They are mis-diagnosed, mis-treated, or blown off as "just a part of being a woman", "just a part of aging", "you're too young", "you are normal," or even worse "you're just crazy."Meanwhile advancement in men's and transgender hormone replacement therapy is a decade ahead of women's. We think this is unacceptable, antiquated and marginalization of women.Women no longer have to settle for "normal" but rather they can feel exceptional - always."WEBSITE: https://www.innerbalance.com/INSTAGRAM: @sarahdaccarettmd****************************************SAY "NO MORE" TO TOXIC LAUNDRY - BUT YES TO FRESH SCENT WITHOUT HARMIt shocked me that our laundry rooms are often one of the most toxic places in our homes.After breast cancer, I began changing out my personal care and beauty but didn't even think about my cleaning supplies.For laundry, I found a few brands that are really clean and free of harmful ingredients, but still searched for that fresh scent without the toxic junk. Found it...
