Send us Fan MailThis week Heather & Vanessa interview homeopath extraordinaire, Claire Zarb! Claire has been practicing homeopathy for over a decade and has additional training in homeobotanicals, herbs, nutrition and flower essences. She studied at The College of Practical Homeopathy in London and holds a Licentiate Diploma in Homeopathy. Claire came into homeopathy like so many of us after she experienced years of ill health due to conventional medical treatment and pharmaceuticals to address skin issues, IBS and hormonal imbalances, trauma and stress. Under skilled homeopathic care, Claire was able to detox all the drugs she'd taken which allowed her body to heal itself. Her transformation was so remarkable that she felt called to become a homeopath herself! Practicing virtually and in-person in the UK, Claire now specializes in women's hormonal and emotional health. She has many glowing testimonials (see them her website!), and has helped many women and others to detox from pharmaceuticals and transform their health to find peace and vitality.

What happens after the baby arrives, and why has that conversation been missing for generations? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Aanchal Dasoar Arora, women's health innovator, pelvic floor physical therapist, and founder of Mendhai Health, shares how postpartum depression, pelvic floor dysfunction, and an identity crisis after motherhood led her to leave a high-level corporate healthcare career and build a digital maternal recovery platform born out of MIT. If you are a leader navigating identity shifts, a healthcare innovator, or a woman seeking support after pregnancy, this episode delivers both validation and visionary solutions. What You Will Learn: Why postpartum identity loss is more common than discussed and how it impacts leadership and relationships. How pelvic floor dysfunction and maternal recovery gaps affect long-term physical and mental health. The cultural and systemic barriers that prevent women from seeking therapy and recovery support. What inspired the creation of an all-digital maternal recovery platform born out of MIT. How technology can address clinician shortages and improve access to women's healthcare. What it takes to move from corporate healthcare leadership into entrepreneurship. Why hospital partnerships may be the fastest path to scaling maternal health innovation. How discipline and structure sustain founders through the emotional highs and lows of entrepreneurship. What it means to choose expansion over shrinking in motherhood and leadership. FAQ: Why is postpartum recovery not discussed as openly as pregnancy? Cultural norms have historically centered pregnancy preparation while minimizing postpartum physical and emotional recovery, leaving many women unsupported after delivery. How long are wait times for pelvic floor physical therapy in the United States? In many hospital systems, wait times can extend up to a year due to clinician shortages and limited access to specialized care. How can digital health platforms improve maternal recovery outcomes? Digital platforms increase access, provide education across the entire maternal journey, extend clinician support, and reduce barriers related to geography, childcare, and scheduling.

In this episode of DISRxUPT, hosts Justin Cole and Shannon Yarosz sit down with Dr. Tiffany Ruder, a pharmacist, hormone specialist, and founder of Better Health and Hormone Balance, to explore how pharmacists can transform women's health through education, advocacy, and holistic care.From community pharmacy to pioneering work in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, Dr. Ruder shares her journey of recognizing critical gaps in perimenopause and menopause care, and how she's empowering women to reclaim their health through evidence-based, root-cause approaches. This conversation challenges pharmacists to step beyond the counter and become champions for a population that has been historically underserved and often dismissed.The Education GapOnly one in five OBGYN residency programs include significant menopause trainingPharmacy school curriculum barely touches women's hormone health beyond basic contraceptionWomen's symptoms are frequently dismissed or attributed to mental health rather than hormonal changesThe medical model often fragments care, missing the systemic nature of hormonal imbalancesUnderstanding Perimenopause & MenopauseEarly symptoms often appear as mood changes, sleep disruption, migraines, and GI issues, not just hot flashesHormones affect the entire body: digestion, neurochemistry, heart rate, metabolism, and moreWomen typically see 4-5 different specialists before finding answersThe transition can begin in a woman's 30s or 40s and last 7-10 years or longerThe Pharmacist's OpportunityPharmacists possess unique biochemistry knowledge that positions them perfectly for hormone counselingFive-minute consultations at the pharmacy counter are insufficient for complex hormone discussionsPharmacists can become educators in clinical settings, corporate boardrooms, schools, and community spacesCertification programs (like hormone replacement therapy specialist credentials) can deepen expertiseFrom Retail to RevolutionDr. Ruder's transition from CVS pharmacy manager to compounding pharmacy specialistThe pandemic as a catalyst for career transformation and reevaluation of work-life balanceDiscovering bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and recognizing the profound need for patient educationLaunching Better Health and Hormone Balance to provide one-on-one consultations beyond the pharmacy counterRoot Cause vs. Band-Aid SolutionsMoving beyond symptom management to address underlying hormonal imbalancesThe importance of comprehensive hormone testing and personalized treatment plansUnderstanding the difference between synthetic and bioidentical hormonesIntegrating nutrition, lifestyle, and stress management with pharmaceutical interventionsFaith & PurposeRecognizing a calling to serve women who have been dismissed by the healthcare systemDaily practice of trust and conviction in uncertain entrepreneurial watersUsing pharmaceutical expertise as a ministry and showing compassion through patient careBalancing personal timetables with divine timingA Vision for Women-Centered CareCreating holistic care models that treat women as whole persons, not fragmented body partsBuilding safe spaces where women feel heard, validated, and empoweredBringing specialists together to create integrated treatment plansRecognizing that women are not "mini men" - physiology, metabolism, and care needs differ significantlyPractical Advice for PharmacistsPursue continuing education in areas of passion - don't wait for curriculum to catch upConsider specialized certifications to deepen expertise in underserved areasLook beyond traditional pharmacy roles to entrepreneurial and educational opportunitiesAdvocate for patients who have been dismissed or overlooked by the healthcare systemRemember that education leads to empowerment for both pharmacists and patientsNotable Quotes"These women deserve so much more than five or ten minutes of our time.""By the time they find compounding pharmacies, most have gone to four to five different doctors. They've been told no, they've been dismissed, they've been told their symptoms are in their head.""We're not just these smaller versions of men. We are complex and dynamic, and our hormones influence a lot.""Education can lead to empowerment because you don't know what you don't know and you can't take action if you're not fully aware.""When we care for others, they get to see the Jesus in me because it's no longer me. It's God who's living through me."Looking AheadDr. Ruder envisions a future where pharmacists serve as educators and advocates in multiple settings, from clinical practices to corporate boardrooms to community spaces. She calls for a truly holistic model of women's health care that validates experiences, integrates specialty expertise, and treats women as whole persons rather than collections of isolated symptoms.About the Guest:Dr. Tiffany Ruder is a pharmacist, certified hormone replacement therapy specialist, and founder of Better Health and Hormone Balance. Originally from Kansas and now based in Houston, Texas, she specializes in helping women navigate perimenopause and menopause through evidence-based, root-cause care. After years in community pharmacy leadership, she discovered her calling in women's hormonal health and now provides one-on-one consultations and education to women seeking answers beyond the five-minute pharmacy counter conversation.Connect with Dr. Ruder:Website: optimize-her.comInstagram: @optimizeherpharmacistLinkedIn: Tiffany RuderFacebook Community: Better Health and Hormone BalanceHosts: Justin Cole and Shannon Yarosz, Cedarville University Center for Pharmacy InnovationEpisode Length: 45 minutesRelease Date: November 2025Episode Number: 53

Join us and be inspired in this replay episode from Women Acquiring Assets featuring Buffanny Hunter, whose mission is grounded in the belief that community organizations must be responsive to the evolving and real needs of those they serve. Rejecting generic or one-size-fits-all solutions, she champions a model of leadership built upon deep listening and partnership with local communities. Buffanny's work at the Junior League of Los Angeles has centered on supporting foster youth and transition-age foster youth, recognizing the array of intersectional challenges they encounter and ensuring aid is relevant, direct, and impactful. Her leadership style is demonstrated through collaborations with organizations such as Happy Trails, Friends of LA, United Friends of the Children, and Alliance for Children's Rights. Through these partnerships, Buffanny advances programs focused on college readiness, financial literacy, and mental health, while also ensuring emergency needs—like assistance for rent or food—are met. Her approach proves that impactful leadership stems from meeting people where they are, listening first, and adapting services to the unique circumstances of those in need. To honor Buffanny Hunter's mission, take action in your own community by embracing inclusive leadership, active listening, and adaptive support for those in need. Seek out opportunities to partner with local organizations, advocate for vulnerable and underserved populations, and ensure your efforts are grounded in genuine understanding and collaboration. By following Buffanny's example, you can play a direct role in building resilient, equitable communities and making meaningful, lasting change for those who need it most.

Ellevate Podcast: Conversations With Women Changing the Face of Business
Katy Brodsky Falco is the Founder and Executive Director of the Foundation for Women's Health. She comes to this work through an equity lens, having worked in criminal justice reform for 20 years. After surviving both HELLP syndrome and breast cancer, Katy was horrified to learn about the long history of inequities in rigorous research of women's health. Seeing how clearly the public sector failed to close the gender equity gap in health for decades across both democratic and republican administrations, she created the Foundation for Women's Health as a private sector solution to not only equalize research funding for diseases across gender, but also across disease. Katy has built and managed non-profit research organizations for leading academic institutions for the past decade. She was the Executive Director of NYU School of Law's Criminal Justice Lab, and prior to this, she was Executive Director of Crime Lab New York, a criminal justice research organization based at University of Chicago. She was also Executive Director of Reentry Services at the NYC Department of Corrections and a staff attorney at Legal Aid Society in the Criminal Defense Division. Katy attended Harvard University for her BA and NYU School of Law for her JD.
