What if I told you that the moment you break your femur, you have a 30% chance of dying — and a 50% chance of never going home again? In this minisode, I share the most shocking moments from my conversation with orthopedic surgeon and longevity expert Dr. Vonda Wright, and why bone health is one of the biggest blind spots in women's health. Dr. Wright reveals that “the minute you fall and break this bone… you have a 30% chance of dying from the complications” — pneumonia, UTIs, bedsores — and “a 50% chance of not returning to the home where you came from.” We also break down her viral MRI comparison: the thigh of a sedentary 74-year-old vs. a 40-year-old vs. a 74-year-old triathlete — and how the active 74-year-old looks nearly identical to the 40-year-old. Aging is not the enemy; inaction is. If you're in your 30s, 40s, or beyond, this is your wake-up call:You can change the trajectory of your health if you start early enough.

What if one of the most common women's health issues was also one of the most ignored? In this episode, Rachael sits down with Professor Jenny Rohn, a leader in UTI research and a full-blown warrior in the fight for women's pain to finally be taken seriously. Together they unravel why UTIs remain stuck in the medical dark ages, why antibiotics still fail millions of women, and how outdated diagnostics keep so many sufferers dismissed and untreated. Jenny breaks down the real science behind recurrent infections, sneaky bacteria, and why women's anatomy and hormones make the UTI landscape so wildly unfair. But this episode isn't all doom. There's hope yet!

What if an Alzheimer's therapy did not just slow decline, but restored memory and physical health back to baseline?In this episode of Spark Time, we sit down with Dan Salain, President and CEO of Recall Therapeutics, and Dr. Atul Chopra, Co-founder and CSO, to unpack one of the boldest ideas in neuroscience today: RTX-100, a gene therapy designed to restore cognition and systemic health in Alzheimer's disease. Dan and Atul walk us through the science behind targeting memory circuits rather than just clearing amyloid, how a liver-expressed protein naturally crosses the blood–brain barrier, and why their preclinical data show full recovery of associative, recognition, and spatial memory in advanced mouse models.We also explore the overlooked systemic side of Alzheimer's cachexia, sarcopenia, frailty, UTIs, pneumonia and how RTX-100 appears to normalize body weight, muscle strength, endurance, and fluid balance alongside cognitive recovery. From serendipity in the lab to regulatory strategy and potential paths to market, this conversation opens up a very different vision for what treating Alzheimer's and even aging itself could look like.

Welcome to the Choosing Wisely Campaign series! This is the fifth and final episode of our 5-part series exploring the ABIM Foundation's Choosing Wisely Lists. This campaign aims to promote conversations between clinicians and patients to avoid unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures. Our last case-based episode focuses on a school-aged male presenting with new-onset enuresis. After a discussion of the differential diagnosis and evidence-based evaluation strategies, we apply recommendations from multiple AAP Choosing Wisely lists to create a care plan that is safe, resource-conscious, and child-centered. Throughout this episode, we'll highlight how ethical care principles—beneficence, nonmaleficence, autonomy, and justice—guide high-value decision-making and help us avoid unnecessary imaging, laboratory studies, and interventions that add cost without improving outcomes. This familiar case in pediatrics is worthy of a rewind to relisten to a throwback episode that will reinforce your skills and emphasize the clinical diagnosis and management without added diagnostics, referrals, or medications.  This case closes out our series on Choosing Wisely in Pediatrics, but the principles we've explored should continue to inform your practice every day. If you missed earlier episodes, rewind to learn more about the campaign's background and listen to cases on fever and cough, gastroenterology presentations, and more.   Series Learning Objectives: Introduction to the Choosing Wisely Campaign: Understand the origins, historical precedent, and primary goals of the campaign. Case-Based Applications: Explore five common presentations in primary and acute care pediatrics, applying concepts from various Choosing Wisely lists to guide management and resource stewardship. Effective Communication: Learn strategies for engaging in tough conversations with parents and colleagues to create allies and ensure evidence-based practices are followed.

You do it six to eight times a day without thinking—but what if you've been doing it wrong your entire life? Groundbreaking new research reveals that improper urination habits are behind skyrocketing rates of UTIs, pelvic floor dysfunction, and prostate problems—and the fix may be as simple as adjusting your posture on the toilet. From women unknowingly triggering infections by “hovering” to men who could sleep through the night just by sitting down, this eye-opening report exposes the silent epidemic hiding in plain sight—and the easy, science-backed ways to protect your bladder, your sleep, and your long-term health.Dr. Adam Brockman answers caller questions.

Can you use vaginal estrogen and systemic hormone therapy?Absolutely — and most women actually need both.If you're still experiencing:• dryness or burning• painful sex• tearing when you wipe• urinary urgency/frequency• recurrent UTIs…it's not you, and it's not that your hormones “aren't working.”It's that systemic estrogen doesn't fully treat Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM).Here's what the research shows:✔ Up to 84% of women experience GSM✔ 20–30% of women on systemic HT still need vaginal estrogen✔ 50–70% benefit from using bothLocal vaginal therapy directly restores the vulvar and vaginal tissue.You deserve comfort, pleasure, and confidence again.Relief is absolutely possible.

It's our 100th episode! I celebrate this milestone with Karen Bradley, NP, discussing the biggest wins, most common questions, and key themes from nearly two years of podcasting about women's sexual health and menopause.We dive into the FDA's recent decision to remove the boxed warning from vaginal estrogen a huge victory for women's health advocacy. This warning has prevented countless women from getting treatment for painful sex, recurrent UTIs, and other symptoms of genitourinary syndrome of menopause. I share a powerful story of a patient with breast cancer history who was denied hormone therapy by her oncology team, only to have them completely reverse course once the boxed warning was removed.The conversation covers the most frequently asked questions from listeners: Is it perimenopause or just stress? (It's both.) Why is my libido gone? (Biology, psychology, and life circumstances all play a role.) Why do I keep getting UTIs after sex? (Often it's vestibulodynia or changes in the vaginal microbiome from estrogen deficiency.) How do I talk to my partner about sex? (Communication is key, and sometimes you need a sex therapist to help.)We also discuss the reality of midlife weight gain, the role of GLP-1 medications like Wegovy and Zepbound, and why building muscle matters more than endless cardio. This episode is a celebration of how far we've come and a reminder that you don't have to suffer through menopause.Highlights:The FDA removed the boxed warning from vaginal estrogen—what this means for access to careThe biology behind midlife low libido and why it's not "all in your head"Why recurrent UTIs after sex might actually be vestibulodynia or vaginal microbiome changes.How to talk to your partner about sex when you've never had those conversationsThe truth about midlife weight gain and what hormones can and can't doGLP-1 medications: FDA approvals for weight loss, cardiovascular protection, MASH, and sleep apneaThank you for being here for 100 episodes. Honestly, there have been times I've wanted to stop, but then I get a DM from someone saying they heard something on the podcast that changed their care, or a patient tells me they finally found answers here. That's what keeps me going.The biggest way you can help me keep doing this work is simple: share this show with someone who needs it and hit subscribe. When you share an episode with a friend who's struggling, a family member who's been dismissed by doctors, or post about it on social media, you're helping me reach more women who deserve better care.Thank you for listening, for learning, and for advocating alongside me.

Graphic Title: 1 in 5 UTIs? Graphic Note: Need Neal and Chuck on here with some raw chicken and turkey. Show Title: 95% Reduce Medications: Dr. Brad Moore on the Power Reversing Diseases Show Description: Discover how lifestyle medicine can reverse chronic disease in this powerful conversation between Chuck Carroll and Dr. Brad Moore, Director of the Lifestyle Medicine Program at George Washington Medical Faculty Associates. Dr. Moore explains why the root cause of conditions like diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension, and heart disease is often lifestyle—not genetics. He shares how simple changes in food, movement, sleep, and stress can dramatically improve health, reduce medications, and transform long-term outcomes. You'll learn what separates patients who succeed with lifestyle change from those who struggle, why focusing only on weight can backfire, and how sleep and stress alter hunger, cravings, and metabolism. Dr. Moore also breaks down the science behind insulin resistance, saturated fat, and rapid improvements seen when patients adopt a whole-food, plant-forward diet. This special bonus episode was recorded live at GreenFare Organic Cafe in Reston, VA. The menu is entirely free of salt, oil, and sugar and 100 percent organic. What You'll Learn: – How lifestyle medicine reverses chronic disease – Why genetics matter less than most people think – The truth about insulin resistance and saturated fat – Why focusing on weight alone slows progress – How sleep and stress affect appetite and metabolism – The difference between "cannonball" and "baby-step" approaches – Why 95% of lifestyle medicine patients reduce medications – How the military is incorporating lifestyle medicine – How to work with Dr. Brad Moore at GW

Can the chicken on your plate be causing urinary tract infections? New research says yes — and the findings may shock you.   In this must-watch episode of The Exam Room Podcast, host Chuck Carroll is joined by Dr. Neal Barnard to break down a landmark study revealing that poultry—especially chicken—is responsible for approximately 1 in 5 UTIs in the United States.   Dr. Barnard explains:   - How E. coli from poultry contaminates meat - Why cooking isn't enough to eliminate risk - How cross-contamination happens in home kitchens - Why infection rates spike in certain communities - What a plant-based diet does to dramatically reduce UTI risk - Foods like cranberries and blueberries that help prevent infections naturally   They also dive into Thanksgiving food myths, the realities of poultry production, antibiotic resistance, and how simple dietary changes can protect your health.   If you've ever struggled with UTIs—or you simply want to understand how diet affects your risk—this episode is essential viewing.   Read the full study: https://bit.ly/UTISourceStudy  

Linda Schatz, Director of AKASA, explains the role of Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) specialists in ensuring accurate coding and bridging the gap between clinical documentation and specific, accurate codes to ensure proper reimbursement. The complexity of medical coding often leads to errors, which can be nearly eliminated by using AI to review 100% of patient encounters to identify inconsistencies and help CDI and coding professionals process more accurate claims quickly. Accurate documentation is important for hospital revenue, patient care quality, and perception of the hospital's performance. Linda explains, "Well, the old adage, if it isn't documented, it wasn't done. If the doctor uses incorrect or perfectly acceptable medical terminology, it doesn't translate into an appropriate code. You've heard the term UIs, this is years ago, right? Grandma had UTIs and died. In the coding world, that used to code for a simple UTI. So the hospitals are getting paid for a patient that took care of a UTI, when in reality that patient was septic. To the outside world, it looks like Grandma came to the hospital, something that could have been treated outpatient, and she died. So the public perception of quality is less. So not only is it revenue, it's quality, but ultimately it's delivering patient care."   "I'm an old nurse. I've been in this field for over 40 years. I've worked across the NICU, PICU, and adult ICU. I've worked in access hospitals to large academics and all the way through hospice. That's pretty unique as a nurse to have that big of a background. Then I became a CDS, or clinical documentation specialist, or integrity specialist, and learned the documentation and coding aspect." "Then I moved into the consulting role and worked with organizations and physicians all across this nation, helping them learn how to do this. And so you've got the clinical background, the coding background, and now I understand how generative AI works. And so while you're a new nurse, you're a horse, right? When we hear a heartbeat, we think of a horse, and after years, you earn your stripes and you become a zebra, and then you add all of these multiple areas of expertise, you become uniquely valuable as a pink zebra."  #AKASA #GenAI #CDI #RevenueCycleManagement akasa.com Listen to the podcast here

One pharmacist urges her colleagues to put aside their preconceptions of ADHD and those who live with it, and take a wider view Susan Nguyen, a Sydney pharmacy co-owner and founder of ADHD Support Pharmacist, has told AJP Podcast host Carlene McMaugh that she hopes pharmacists will try to gain a better understanding of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and consider how it affects patients' lives in multiple ways – including its comorbidities, and what pharmacists can do to help. She likens it to diabetes in the way that people make negative judgements about a patient's behaviour – but also contrasts it with regard to the lack of a holistic approach. “When you look at someone who has diabetes, they experience the judgement, ‘oh, they've got diabetes. Oh, they must have been having too much sugar or too many soft drinks. Or their parents probably gave them lollies every day',” she says. But even with this wider social stigma, pharmacists do not generally hold negative opinions about people with diabetes, she says, and do consider the wider picture. “You're thinking of foot care, wound care, vaccinations, diabetes med checks… diabetes has a lot of, I guess, comorbidities and other conditions and lifestyle factors played as well. “When you look at ADHD, it's a lot, just much the same. You're looking at a lot of comorbidities, you're looking at lifestyle, you're looking at complications, you're looking at as well, the stigma… “When you care for someone with ADHD and you delve into it more, you start to see there's anxiety, there’s depression, there's also [that] unmanaged ADHD means they may be eating, there could be obesity there, drug use work, relationship problems, a whole gamut. “So it's where pharmacists need to be.” Nguyen also looks into misconceptions such as overdiagnosis, that ADHD is a condition mainly affecting boys, and that ADHD medicines may impact quality of life. And significantly, she speaks about how people with ADHD are judged negatively for their own symptoms. “The lack of concentration, the disorganisation, the time blindness, not being able to manage your scripts, not getting your scripts. “It goes out of date, you freak out, the patient rings up and they say, ‘look, I haven’t got any of my medications left'. “When we hear that it could be easily seen as they’re being lazy, they’ve been so they’ve let themselves down to let us down. “It’s such a hassle. It’s inconvenient, but it’s the presenting symptom, and they’re stigmatised for their presenting symptoms. “We’re actually, as healthcare professionals, as pharmacists, as even as society, we’re almost punishing people with ADHD for what they have, whereas someone with diabetes, they might have more UTIs, they might have infections that just don’t heal, that sort of stuff. “But there’s a lot of support. And that’s because we look at the symptoms, we understand the pathophysiological side, but because of that lack of, I guess, understanding of ADHD, it’s become more of about a character flaw or character trait. “And so that really makes it hard for, I guess, healthcare professionals to show that care and support. “And I feel that this is where we need to really, as pharmacists making that stance on that and then supporting our patients in a much better way.” Highlights include: 01:21 – Why does ADHD need more attention in pharmacy? 04:18 – The comparison with diabetes 07:14 – ADHD in women and inattentive symptoms 08:11 – The role of social media 12:26 – Will medication “fix it up”? 14:04 – How can we widen our views? 16:32 – “With stimulant prescribing, it is hard.” 18:10 – The consequences of unmanaged ADHD 20:44 – How do we share information? 21:49 – “Pharmacists may think, oh, they’re going to get tolerant when they take  Ritalin for so long.” 23:10 – “If you’ve seen a patient who comes in with their prescription for Vyvanse, we can’t assume that, hey, everything’s under control.” 26:27 – The carer's perspective 28:37 – Pharmacists with ADHD 32:39 – “We need more pharmacists to really be in that space to advocate for patients.” You can access the full transcript of this podcast here.

British national record–holding freediver Ruth Osborne is back — and let's just say the last two years have been anything but smooth sailing. Ear infections, cancelled competition days, Caribbean chaos, burnout, and a couple of “is this my last dive ever?” moments… Ruth lays it all out with the kind of honesty most people avoid.This episode isn't about glory dives or perfect outcomes. It's about what happens when the thing you love keeps punching you in the gut — and why you still get back in the water anyway.We get into her training, mindset shifts, the ugly parts of high-level sport, and the surprising decision to coach herself. If you need a reminder that the path rarely looks pretty, this is it.Key TakeawaysProgress without outcome is still progress. Ruth's technique, strength and awareness are on another level — even if the number on the dive line hasn't moved yet.Setbacks don't mean you're wrong for the path — sometimes they're just annoying. Ear infections, heat, UTIs, and slanted dive lines aren't “signs from the universe.” They're life.You can love the process even when you hate the results. That's the real test of commitment.Self-awareness beats brute force. From redefining nutrition to noticing burnout, Ruth shows what “listening to your body” actually looks like.Retiring wasn't the answer — remembering her ‘why' was.Coaching herself is the next evolution. She's backing her own experience, instincts, and discipline.Rest isn't optional. Especially when you're diving 80+ metres on one breath.Long-term mindset > short-term wins. She's building for depth, longevity, and a life lived well — not a single medal moment.Timestamps0:00 – Ruth is back: two years later, a lot deeper (mentally if not yet physically)2:00 – Competitions, ear infections and the brutal timing of setbacks4:15 – What “current” does to a dive and why it matters8:00 – Pressure, performance windows and keeping your head straight12:00 – Reacting vs choosing your reaction16:00 – When outcome and effort don't match20:00 – Nutrition, protein and what changed for Ruth in her 40s33:00 – The Dominica chapter: volcanoes, heat exhaustion and angry afternoons39:00 – “Do I retire?” — Ruth hits her breaking point44:00 – Why she stays in the game: rebuilding her ‘why'52:00 – World Championships, coaching herself and designing a healthier training balance56:00 – What's next: May competitions and a new chapter on her terms Hosted on Acast.

THE FDA FINALLY REMOVED THE BLACK BOX WARNING on both systemic estrogen and low-dose vaginal estrogen — and it's one of the biggest wins in women's health in decades.For years, millions of women avoided hormone therapy because of outdated, frightening warnings that did NOT match the scientific evidence. This led to unnecessary suffering — from painful sex to recurrent UTIs to fear-based avoidance of safe, effective treatments.In this episode, Dr. Carolyn Moyers (Board-Certified OB/GYN + Menopause Specialist) breaks down the NEW FDA labeling, the real data on hormone therapy safety, and why vaginal estrogen is one of the safest and most life-changing treatments in menopause care.

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our conversation with Anthony DiSalvo, Maria's personal acupuncturist and California Board-Certified Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, and this one's all about real-life healing tools you can use daily. In this episode, Anthony breaks down how to naturally relieve constipation, allergies, and hormonal imbalances through simple acupressure points, herbal support, and daily habits. He also shares how hot water therapy can transform digestion, what your cravings reveal about your body, and how Chinese medicine helps with fertility, postpartum recovery, and UTIs. Maria and Anthony dive into how consistency and self-discipline are the secret ingredients for healing, and why you don't need to rely only on external treatments to feel better. You'll learn how to reconnect with your body, support your organs, and build harmony from the inside out! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Consistency creates healing. Acupressure isn't a one-time fix, it's a daily dialogue with your body. The more you show up, the faster your system learns to rebalance on its own. Hot water is medicine. Swapping cold drinks for warm or hot water soothes digestion, boosts circulation, and relaxes your body from the inside out. Healing allergies starts with strengthening your organs. Instead of masking symptoms, support your lungs, liver, and spleen so your immune system can finally calm and reset. Your hormones want harmony, not control. Chinese medicine works with your natural cycles to ease PMS, improve fertility, and make transitions like perimenopause smoother. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Thrive Causemetics: https://thrivecausemetics.com/healsquad Get 20% OFF with this link!  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tlcholisticlife/?hl=en  Website: https://www.yudayimedicine.com/about-anthony-disalvo You can check out his courses here! https://courses.yudayimedicine.com/tlc-holistic-life ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Urinary tract infections — or UTIs — aren't the most glamorous topic, but they're incredibly important, and we just don't talk about them enough. If you've ever had one, you'll know how miserable they can be: the burning, the stinging, those endless trips to the loo, the pain, and that bone-crushing fatigue. They can really knock you sideways.For many women, UTIs become more common — and more stubborn — during perimenopause and menopause.In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Helen Lake, a specialist urology nurse, to help us understand why UTIs happen, why they mustn't be ignored, and what you can do about them — from medical treatments to nutrition and supplements.Helen explains everything you need to know about identifying, understanding, and managing UTIs — and hopefully banishing them for good. We cover the key symptoms, prevention strategies like staying hydrated and double-voiding, why test results aren't always conclusive, and when antibiotics are needed. We also look at the role of beneficial bacteria, cranberry and D-mannose, vaginal moisturisers, topical oestrogen, and how to advocate for yourself with your GP.If you've found this episode helpful, please share it with a friend who might benefit too.

Send us a textAfter birth, many women are left blindsided by physical changes they never expected. Vaginal dryness, painful sex, recurring UTIs, and even emotional strain can all show up during breastfeeding — but most mothers are never told why. In this episode, we sit down with Sara Perelmuter, a third-year medical student at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City. Sara currently serves as president of the Sexual Medicine Research Team and has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications on reproductive and genitourinary health.Sara explains the hormonal shifts that mimic menopause in the postpartum period, why so many women are suffering in silence, and what the research reveals about both the prevalence of these symptoms and the safe, effective treatments available — including pelvic floor therapy, moisturizers, lubricants, and topical vaginal estrogen.These symptoms are common, but they are not inevitable. By naming and studying them, we open the door to treatment and better care.********** Needed

Dr. Sunil Gupta explained that the prevalence of diabetes in pregnancy (gestational and pre-gestational) is high and may vary from 5% to 20% in different populations in India. He said that 90% of women may not have any symptoms of diabetes, but others may experience symptoms such as frequent vaginal infections, polyuria (increased urination), polyphagia (increased hunger), polydipsia (increased thirst), unexplained weight loss, and fatigue, etc.  Dr. Gupta said that frequent nighttime urination may be one of the symptoms of diabetes. He clarified the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, especially the causes and presentation in children. Addressing common myths, he emphasized that regular use of prescribed medication does not cause serious side effects. Answering a question on increased urinary frequency, he explained that recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and autonomic bladder neuropathy are often overlooked complications causing such symptoms.  He highlighted that maintaining proper blood sugar control before and during pregnancy is essential to prevent complications for both the mother and the baby. Dr. Gupta also stressed the importance of timely testing, diet management, exercise, and insulin dose adjustment during pregnancy. Concluding his session, he advised that the entire family should take collective responsibility for supporting the expectant mother, calling it a shared “pregnancy project” to ensure a safe and healthy outcome for both mother and child.  Expert- Dr Sunil Gupta Anchor- Mrs. Shraddha Bharadwaj    Podcast: 22/03/2019   Recorded at: Akashwani Nagpur    Episode: 89

You can connect directly with Gin in the Ask Gin group, and she will answer all of your questions personally.

But if you're looking for support from a community of like-minded IFers, we are here for you at ginstephens.com/community. Sonja is a substitute teacher and tennis player from Houston, Texas. She shares her journey from being a strong athlete growing up to her struggles with weight that began during a two-year missions trip in South America, and continued as she experienced post-pregnancy weight gain. Sonja began intermittent fasting in 2020, and had initial success, losing 20 pounds, but the challenges that arose during a family crisis led her to stop fasting consistently for a significant period of time. Finally, in early 2025, she felt ready to resume the IF lifestyle.Sonja talks about the benefits she experienced with intermittent fasting, such as having more energy, fewer UTIs, and improved dental health. Despite the setbacks, when Sonja found her way back to intermittent fasting in early 2025, she rediscovered the numerous non-scale victories that her body greatly enjoyed. She emphasizes how Alternate Day Fasting (ADF) helped her break through a weight loss plateau, offering her greater flexibility and satisfaction by accommodating her social life better.For new intermittent fasters, Sonja advises tapping into resources like Gin's podcasts and books to stay informed and motivated. She highlights the importance of experimenting with different fasting methods to find what fits both physically and emotionally. Most importantly, she encourages listeners to be kind and gracious with themselves during challenging times, knowing that intermittent fasting is a sustainable and flexible lifestyle change that can always be resumed when they're ready.Get Gin's books at: https://www.ginstephens.com/get-the-books.html.

Can you believe we've made it to 200 episodes of the Herbs with Rosalee podcast?! Week after week, I get to sit in the host's chair—asking the questions, guiding the conversation, and shining the spotlight on other herbalists (and the plants we love). Honestly, it's one of my favorite things to do.So when we realized the 200th episode was coming up, we knew it had to be something different. At first, someone suggested I should be the one in the hot seat. My reaction? Hard no. Absolutely not.But the idea kept tugging at me… and eventually, I caved. And! If anyone was going to flip the script and interview me, it had to be my dear friend Mason Hutchison from HerbRally. Not only do I love his hosting skills, Mason knows me better than most people on this planet—which meant he could ask the kinds of questions I'd never think to ask myself.And wow… he did.We laughed over bloopers, looked back at how the show has grown, and talked about the ways podcasting has stretched me—not just as an herbalist, but as a person.I shared stories about my ever-evolving plant path—from activism, to my early days with herbs, to how UTIs (yes, really!) shaped my herbal journey in surprising ways. We also pulled back the curtain on what goes into producing this podcast, and chatted about some of the threads that run through my life right now: walking, strength training, friendship, grief, and resilience.There are also a few surprises in there - one that left me in tears. But! No spoilers! You'll just have to watch the show. (And I DO recommend watching this one as there's lots of entertaining b-roll going on.)It was one of those conversations that felt both light and deep at the same time. I'm so grateful to share it with you—and to be celebrating 200 episodes together.Here's a peek at what we covered:► Why most podcasts don't make it past seven episodes—and what it really took for me to reach 200► How creating a podcast has shaped me as an herbalist and educator► The behind-the-scenes teamwork that goes into every single episode► How my dad's adventurous spirit and my mom's ethnobotanical work continue to shape my life today► How getting arrested as a young activist eventually led me deeper into herbalism (and guided me toward a gentler, less in-your-face approach to bringing herbalism to people!)► and so much more…For this episode, I also have to give a big shout-out to YOU. Truly, this podcast wouldn't exist without you listening, sharing, and showing up week after week. Your enthusiasm for the show is what keeps me going.And a special thank-you to all of my students here at Herbs with Rosalee—you make it possible for us to keep producing the podcast. An extra-special nod goes to our Podcast Circle members, whose direct support means so much. I'm so grateful for each and every one of you.----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comYou can find Mason at HerbRally.com.For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast, follow @rosaleedelaforet on Instagram!Working successfully with herbs requires three essential skills.

Urologist Fara Bellows discusses her article "When recurrent UTIs might actually be bladder cancer." Fara shares the story of a 91-year-old patient whose recurrent urinary infections masked an underlying bladder cancer diagnosis, illustrating how easily symptoms can be misattributed. She explains risk factors such as smoking, prior radiation, and occupational exposures, and highlights the alarming statistics that nearly 20,000 women will be diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2025, with close to 5,000 deaths. Fara emphasizes the dangers of delayed diagnosis in women due to symptom overlap with common conditions, and she outlines the three key diagnostic tools—urine cytology, imaging, and cystoscopy—that can save lives when used early. Listeners will learn why vigilance in primary care, proactive referrals, and patient advocacy are crucial to ensuring timely and accurate diagnoses.
