In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Selene Yeager, a remarkable sports writer and competitive biker who started her biking journey later in life. We delved into her fascinating career, beginning with her early passion for writing and her transition from medical writing to freelancing for major publications like Women's Health and Men's Health. Selene shared how her love for biking evolved, leading her to competitive racing and eventually to writing a long-standing column for Bicycling Magazine. We explored her competitive nature and her journey into triathlons, including her incredible experience of qualifying for the Ironman World Championship in Kona on her first attempt. Selene's story is a testament to following one's passions and the doors that open as a result. The conversation then shifted to her menopause experience, which led her to co-author the book "Roar" with Dr. Stacey Sims, focusing on women-specific physiology in athletic training. This journey also inspired her to start the "Hit Play Not Pause" podcast, addressing the unique challenges active women face during menopause. Selene emphasized the importance of recognizing menopause symptoms and seeking appropriate help, advocating for lifting heavy weights as a key strategy. She also highlighted the significance of community and mindset in navigating menopause, encouraging women to see it as a new beginning rather than an end. Overall, this episode is a rich blend of personal anecdotes, professional insights, and empowering advice for women navigating the complexities of menopause while staying active and engaged in their passions.

The messages we see and hear about hormone therapy are often head spinning, as headlines seemingly say one thing and guidelines say another. Medical experts themselves spend days arguing on Instagram. And women are left wondering how to make the best decisions for their health and well being. We feel it, too. So this week, host Selene Yeager opens up about her own journey through menopause and hormone therapy and has a sit down, candid conversation with the podcast's resident hormone specialist Dr. Carla DiGirolamo to get to the root of the confusion and discuss what women should consider as they're sorting through all the information coming their way. Carla DiGirolamo, MD, PhD, is a Double Board Certified Reproductive Endocrinologist and Obstetrician/Gynecologist specializing in infertility and menopausal medicine.

Menopause is a confusing, sometimes isolating time. We have more information than ever, but can still feel in the dark about exactly what's going on and what we should or maybe shouldn't be doing about it. To help, Feisty Menopause and Hit Play Not Pause host Selene Yeager have created an 8 week course called Navigate Menopause that guides women through menopause physiology, hormonal and other therapies, and the exercise, nutrition, and lifestyle strategies that can help smooth the transition, as well as help them create a plan of action for this time of life. Hundreds of women have taken the course since we launched earlier this year, and they've shared some moving stories worth sharing. So this week we do just that: We sit down with four women from our latest cohorts to hear about the obstacles they've encountered in their menopause transition and discuss the blueprint they've created for their future.Abby Huggins Mowinski, 49, is a veterinarian, professor, and mother of two teenage sons.

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, we sit down with Rebecca Rusch, a world-class athlete and Emmy winner, to explore her harrowing journey through what she calls her "Brain Storm" - a mild concussion that spiraled into a years-long struggle with invisible injury and recovery. Rebecca opens up about the bike crash that initially seemed like a minor setback but soon turned her world upside down. What was expected to be a brief recovery period stretched into months, then years, as she grappled with persistent symptoms that defied easy explanation or treatment. Throughout our conversation, Rebecca candidly shares the emotional toll of this prolonged recovery, touching on the isolation she felt and the challenges of dealing with an injury that others couldn't see or easily understand.As we delve deeper, Rebecca reveals her exploration of various healing modalities. From traditional rest and recovery methods to alternative treatments, including her experiences with psilocybin, she leaves no stone unturned in her quest for healing. This part of our discussion sheds light on the often-overlooked aspects of recovery and the lengths to which individuals may go when conventional methods fall short.A significant portion of our conversation centers on the unique pressures Rebecca faced as a public figure. She speaks honestly about the struggle to balance her public persona with her private battles, and the weight of expectations that came with her status as an elite athlete. Rebecca's decision to finally speak openly about her experience marks a turning point, not just in her personal journey, but in the broader conversation about concussions and invisible injuries.We also discuss the "Brain Storm" podcast series, a collaborative project with health expert Selene Yeager and Feisty Media, presented by Momentous. This four-part series aims to educate, raise awareness, and provide support for those dealing with concussions and their aftermath. Rebecca shares some startling statistics - nearly 30% of adults report having had a concussion in their lifetime, with almost half experiencing long-term symptoms. These numbers underscore the importance of the series and the need for better understanding and care in concussion treatment.Throughout the episode, we touch on insights from leading concussion experts, debunking outdated advice and shedding light on the current understanding of concussion science and treatment. Rebecca's journey highlights the challenges many face in finding quality, informed care, and the frustration of navigating recovery with limited guidance.As we wrap up, Rebecca reflects on the importance of breaking the silence around concussions and invisible injuries. Her powerful message resonates: while concussions may be invisible, they don't need to be suffered in silence. This episode serves as a call to action, encouraging listeners to seek proper care, share their experiences, and contribute to a more open and informed dialogue about brain health and recovery.Rebecca's story is one of resilience, discovery, and ultimately, hope. It's a testament to the human spirit and a beacon for others navigating their own storms, invisible or otherwise.Tune in to listen and don't forget to review the show!________________________About Rebecca RuschRebecca Rusch is a world-class explorer, professional athlete, acclaimed speaker and author who brings her wilderness wisdom to top trailblazers to reach the heights of human performance in leadership, business and life.

Menopause and age raise our cardiovascular disease risk. Athletes and highly active people also tend to have a higher prevalence of coronary artery calcium and atherosclerotic plaque (though it tends to be the benign kind). But what does that all mean? How can we know what's really going on in those coronary arteries of ours? To find out, host Selene Yeager had a Cleerly-enabled coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), which uses AI-enabled software to help characterize coronary plaque composition and cardiovascular disease risk.

At Feisty Media, we are all about reclaiming language and turning it on its head. That's why we're proud to present our limited series, HORMONAL - Periods, Pills, and Pregnancy: How Women's Hormones Impact Sports Performance. This series is hosted by double-board certified Obstetrician and Reproductive Endocrinologist Dr. Carla DiGirolamo, who has been featured in Boston Magazine as one of "Boston's Best Doctors" every year since 2019. Carla is joined by Feisty's own Selene Yeager, who has been hosting the Hit Play Not Pause podcast since 2020, and has conducted over 160 interviews with leading experts and top athletes in the perimenopause and menopause space. Combined with her background as a health and science journalist, Selene is great at reading the research and translating it into actionable steps for active women. In the final episode of this limited series, Selene and Dr. DiGirolamo answer listener questions around HRT, inflammation, LEA, asthma symptoms, bone density, training and racing around your period, and more, including:If you're over 60, do you need to come off of HRT, especially if you've been on it for over 10 years? (Research Study)What can an athlete do if a taper brings on a period and the PMS that comes with it?How should I address exercise-induced inflammation post-menopause?Is there a connection between new onset asthma and asthma-like respiratory symptoms in perimenopause and menopause?What are your recommendations around micronized progesterone administration?Why am I so lazy to train on days when I'm near my period?How do hormones affect your performance in hotter temperature races?How do hormonal changes in women over 40 affect nutritional needs and race fueling?What are some of the psychological dynamics of hormonal changes?What should I expect coming off hormonal birth control after 15 years? How do hormonal changes from peri-to-post-menopause affect the quality of our ligaments and tendons and the rate of healing?What happens hormonally when you stop elite high-performance sport?Breastfeeding and performance. What should women know?Bottom Line: "We are not victims of our hormones and we are not broken. It's not that our hormones are doing something they're not supposed to do. It's that people have different sensitivities to their own hormone fluctuations. We just need to figure out what our personal path is and use all the tools available to live our best lives."Listen to Episode 1 of HormonalListen to Episode 2 of HormonalListen to Episode 3 of HormonalSign up to Receive The Feisty 40+ Newsletter:https://www.feistymenopause.com/blog/Feisty-40-plus Sign up to Receive The Feist Newsletter:https://www.womensperformance.com/the-feist Follow us on Instagram:@feisty_womens_performance Feisty Media Website:https://livefeisty.com/ https://www.womensperformance.com/ ...

If you're 40+ years old and racing the the Leadville 100, you're in good company: a LARGE majority of folks lining up this August are Masters racers, and our podcast survey at the beginning of this season shows that 80% of our listeners fit in this group (it goes without saying that both of the hosts are). So we're very excited to have two true experts join us for this episode: Joe Friel -- the author of The Cyclist's Training Bible and Fast after Fifty -- joins us for an incredibly valuable discussion on how we can stay (or become) fast even as we age. Selene also joins the program to give us tips for Masters women racing this course. Finally, Fatty turns over the "Fatty's Finishing Tips" baton to Hottie for guidance on getting through the hair-raising first three miles of the course. Don't miss this episode!

Without question, the Leadville 100 is about the location. And it's about fitness. And it's about nutrition. And it's about the people. But really, when you think about it — before, during, and after the race — it's about the climbs. Face it, your reaction and conjured mental image when hearing the words "columbine" and "powerline" are already vastly different than 99.99% of the people in the world. So in this episode, we talk about climbing, with the person who literally wrote the book on it. Selene Yeager's got practical, personable tips and guidance you will not want to miss! 

Prepare to be educated and outraged in today's episode. This week, we feature a recent episode of the Feisty podcast Hit Play Not Pause, hosted by Selene Yeager, with guest Dr. Elizabeth Comen. From being burned as witches to being barred from attending medical school, from being dismissed as hysterical to well, just being dismissed, from being shamed to being sexualized, the medical system has a long, sordid history in how it treats women and women's health. And those toxic roots still poison the waters we have to navigate to this day. If you've ever wondered why we're so far off the back with regards to our understanding of women's health and wellness and treatment, this week's guest Dr. Elizabeth Comen, author of All in Her Head: The Truth and Lies Early Medicine Taught Us About Women's Bodies and Why It Matters Today has some answers. Elizabeth Comen, MD, has dedicated her medical career to saving the lives of women. An award-winning, internationally sought-after clinician and physician-scientist, Dr. Comen works as a medical oncologist with a specialty in breast cancer at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and is an assistant professor of medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College. She earned her BA in the history of science from Harvard College and her MD from Harvard Medical School, then completed her residency in Internal Medicine at Mount Sinai Hospital and her fellowship in oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. She lives in New York City with her family.

Menopause, health and fitness writer and professional athlete Selene Yeager is on again for a third time to talk about how to decipher some of the messages we hear about menopause and hormones from podcasts, books, reels and all the noise that's accumulating out there so we can figure out what applies to us and what doesn't.

Episode #60 // Eating disorder recovery, thriving in menopause, navigating perimenopause,  fueling for power and performance without restrictionCW: Eating disorderIf you have questions about perimenopause, menopause, or how you can eat what you want without adhering to any rules and still perform well as an athlete, do not go anywhere, this episode was MADE for you. Today I have Selene Yeager, the host of the Hit Play Not Pause podcast, content manager at Feisty Menopause, and best-selling professional health and fitness writer, including the co-author of ROAR and Next Level with Dr. Stacy Sims.

She also talks about the evolution of her career as an athlete, how she's come to embrace gravel biking and bikepacking, and how both her approach to training and her outlook have changed since going through menopause.  Selene also shares some beautiful insights on how a perimenopausal mom and an adolescent daughter can not just survive but thrive while living in the same household- you'll definitely want to listen all the way through to the end for that little gem.

At this point, you may have been doing your sport for a decade, maybe two…or more. It's easy to fall into a rut or lose your spark. The hormonal changes that come with the menopause transition also can make training more challenging and put a dent in your motivation. Trying a new challenge and/or working with a new coach can help you find your why and feel fired up again. This week, we pull back the curtain and talk about what that coaching process looks like as host Selene Yeager sits down with triathlon coach Marni Sumbal to talk through how they got Selene Ironman 70.3 ready after a 15-year hiatus from triathlon. Marni Sumbal is co-owner of Trimarni Coaching and Nutrition, a coaching and nutrition company based in Greenville, South Carolina, which she runs with her husband and RETUL bike fit expert, Karel Sumbal. Marni is a 3x author, board-certified sports dietitian, master of science in exercise physiology, 19x Ironman finisher, and 5x Ironman World Championship finisher. She was 5th in her age group at the 2021 Ironman World Championships in St. George and was 2017 Ironman Chattanooga First Place Overall Female Amateur.

In this episode, we discuss: Understanding the definitions of perimenopause and menopause The physiology of perimenopause and menopause How strength training can be protective against performance declines in perimenopause and menopause Tips for managing fatigue and stress during perimenopause Tips for improving sleep quality and dealing with night sweats This episode is part one of two - so be sure to tune into the next one for training recommendations!  We mention Amanda's Run Club in this episode.

In mid-June, Feisty Media was proud to be a sponsor of the 2023 Female Athlete Conference in Boston, which is the epicenter of academia and research as it relates to women's performance. The self-described goal of the FAC is to close the disparity in research and treatment of female athletes and promote the understanding of female athletes' unique and understudied physiology and lived experience, as well as clinical best practices and interdisciplinary calls-to-action.Feisty's own Sara Gross, Kelly O'Mara, and Selene Yeager attended the conference and, today, they share with you some of their personal thoughts and key takeaways from the three-day conference, along with some wish list topics that certainly warrant more discussion and research. They recap:What we continue to learn about the menstrual cycle and its effects on performanceHow to close the gap between new research and communication to coaches and trainersWhy we still don't know enough about nutrition, even with continued research on REDS and LEA (Low Energy Availability)Why we need a better frame of reference when describing painThe disconnection between body composition and performanceMost agree that we are at an inflection point with women's sports and performance which is why, now more than ever, it's important to keep asking the right questions and creating ways to communicate research quickly and efficiently to those up-and-coming performers for years to come.
