From hot flushes to brain fog. Hormones to headaches. Ask us anything. We’ve got you covered. In this episode, Dr Mariam and Claire Murphy tackle your most pressing questions about the menopausal transition. They begin by reframing this stage of life and looking at how other cultures (even some of the animal kingdom) view post-reproductive years as a time of renewal, leadership, wisdom and strength. They talk to the experts to answer questions about whether it's ever too late to start MHT, if those hot flushes in your 30s could be a sign of perimenopause, and what to do if you’re worried your brain fog is actually dementia. They also discuss peri-anxiety. Why you might be losing your hair in your 40s. And, what is the correct way to apply estrogen gel? Plus, can you still get pregnant during perimenopause, and is MHT the same as birth control? THE END BITS All your health information is in the Well Hub.

Jeremy Rosado joined us on the show today to share songs from his new album, The Waiting Room. But before he got here, Carmen was curious to find out what happened in the Jaguars-Chiefs game last night as she went to bed before she knew the results of a play under review.  Bill wanted to know if Carmen and Dave were curious to learn some new factoids. They were not...initially... but they did come around. So much so, that Carmen wanted to know if you were curious to learn about the usefulness...

Hey Outlouders! For this week's Sunday special, we're dropping an episode of our sister podcast Well into your feed - because we know you'll love this conversation as much as we do. We're talking all things peri and menopause. Does your endometriosis put you at a higher risk of early menopause? Did a pig castrator really perform the first-ever C-section? And if you've had a hysterectomy, do you still need to see a gynaecologist? On this episode of Well Claire Murphy chats to Professor Susan Davis, a founder of Jean Hailes for Women's Health and past president of the Australasian Menopause Society, to find out what's fact and what's fiction when it comes to the science of perimenopause. They unravel common myths, including “disappearing labia” and talk about why some things you're being sold on social media - like weighted vests and special supplements - may not be as miraculous as they might seem. Plus, talk about the latest research on delaying the onset of menopause and why it might not be a good idea for everybody. THE END BITS All your health information is in the Well Hub.

Presented by Julie Busteed I used to think there were seasons of waiting on God, but now I think there is always something I am waiting on from him. Maybe it's waiting for some direction in one area of my work or waiting for something to come to an end or waiting for the next big thing. But aren't we always waiting to hear from him? And since we are always in this “waiting room” of God's timing for some kind or another, then what is the purpose? What is the benefit? Yet the Lord waits to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him (Isaiah 30:18). We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you (Psalm 33:20-22). There's a blessing in the waiting room. There is hope. It's not always my favorite place to be, but I'm not as anxious there as I used to be. I've grown in my trust of God, that he has what's best in store for me, even if it seems difficult. I know I can trust him no matter what. And my goals and focus are ever more on my hope in him. Yes, you and I are living in the now and it's a fallen world. But if you are a Christ-follower, there is hope of eternal life with God. The more I get to know him, study his Word, read his Word, pray, and meet and talk with other Christ-followers, the more I can rest in his timing. Not that it's never frustrating or scary, but I know he will never leave me or forsake me. Do you have confidence in your relationship with him? If not, please, take some time right now to pray and ask for his help to get into his Word. He alone is our hope and salvation. He is trustworthy and loving. He waits to be gracious to you. If you are struggling with waiting on God and having patience to endure in a situation, then think about this. God's silence doesn't mean that he doesn't care. He hears you and knows you. But maybe he has something better in mind for you. Or maybe the answer is no or not right now. But you are building your faith muscle as you wait and trust in him. I think Oswald Chambers says it beautifully: Some prayers are followed by silence (from God) because they are wrong, others because they are bigger than one can understand. It will be a wonderful moment for some of us when we stand before God and find that the prayers we clamored for in early days and imagined were never answered, have been answered in the most amazing way, and that God's silence has been the sign of the answer.[1] --- [1]  Chambers, Oswald, Oswald Chambers Daily Thoughts for Disciples, Christian Literature Crusade, 1976, p. 75.

Presented by Julie Busteed What happens when you are not patient and run ahead of God and take things into your own hands? That's exactly what happened to King Saul. You can read the entire account in I Samuel 13:1-15 but let me summarize. Saul is the newly appointed first King over Israel. They've had some success at defeating their enemies. I guess King Saul is feeling pretty good about this. Then the Philistines—the enemy—assemble to fight and they have many chariots and soldiers as numerous as the sand on the seashore. When the Israelites see this, they are quaking with fear. Saul waits seven days for Samuel (the prophet and priest) to arrive to offer the burnt offering. He was following Samuel's instructions (1 Samuel 10:8). But something happens—we're not told what—but Samuel doesn't show up in seven days. He's late. And Saul seeing that his soldiers are frightened, seeing the strength and number of his enemies, takes things into his own hands and he offers the sacrifice to God (which by the way was against the law—only priests were to do this). And then guess who shows up at this exact moment—Samuel! And he asks Saul what's going on, and Saul explains: “When I saw that the men were scattering, and that you did not come at the set time, and that the Philistines were assembling at Mikmash, I thought, ‘Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal, and I have not sought the Lord's favor.' So I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering” (1 Samuel 13:11-12). Oh wow. Did you hear that? Saul's saying things weren't going as he thought they should. He was looking at his circumstances around him and becoming fearful and not looking at God. And so, he took things into his own hands—he felt “compelled” to ask for the Lord's help in this way. And Samuel then tells him that he's done a foolish thing. That he's not kept the command that the Lord God gave him and as a result the Kingdom of Israel will be taken away from him, it will not endure. I do feel for Saul sometimes. It sounds like he convinced himself he was doing the right thing in rushing ahead of God and offering these sacrifices and seeking the Lord's favor instead of waiting for Samuel. But it was not the right thing. How many times have you been anxious, got tired of waiting for God and took things into your own hands which then resulted in more trouble? Maybe you are so desperate to get out of a job or a project that you'll do anything. I know. It's hard to wait. But it can be even more dangerous to not wait. To make poor decisions and suffer those consequences. You might not have your kingdom taken away from you like Saul, but it could still end in difficulty. As the Psalmist says, wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord (Psalm 27:14 ESV)!

Presented by Julie Busteed Waiting on the Lord is hard. But he gives us promises that we can hang on to during this time. But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint (Isaiah 40:31 ESV). Years ago, I was in a job that was not my favorite. There were many things that were fine, but the work itself was not really what I wanted to do. I felt like it wasn't a good fit for me, and it was work that didn't come naturally to me. For a long time, I complained about this. I would complain in my heart, to God, to my husband and search for ways to move on to something else. But the opportunity didn't present itself. Finally, I remember crying—literally—to God about this and just pouring my heart out to him. And it's not that I heard a loud voice, it was a soft gentle reminder that he is sovereign and to trust and wait on him. Instead of trying to change my circumstance, I began to change my thoughts—my mindset about the situation. It's not that I became content and happy overnight, but I tried to focus on the things that were good. I also gave myself little rewards or encouragements for doing some of the hard things of the work. And by that, I mean taking a quick walk, getting another cup of coffee and so on. And slowly, I wasn't as miserable! I think I complained less! Changing my attitude made a huge difference. My situation didn't change right away either. I would still have some valleys of despair, but they became fewer and far between. Then, when an opportunity did arise, I was almost surprised! I was now actually more prepared for this next step having stayed where I was. And I wasn't leaving my employer on bad terms—not burning any bridges. I know there are many different situations and some more difficult than what I was experiencing. And for your own mental and physical health you may need to take different actions. But I tell you this, for a couple of reasons. First take some time to reflect and think on the situation as objectively as possible. Are there some good and positive things about where you are right now? Then pour your heart out to God. Continue to seek him. Realize he has purpose in the waiting. And that nothing is ever wasted.

Presented by Julie Busteed When you're in God's waiting room do you ever think that if you just pray more or fast more or do something more that this will get God's attention? That there is something you need to do. I used to think maybe I'm not in his will, doing something wrong, or not being persistent enough—which is why he's not hearing or answering my prayer. Are you familiar with the parable of the persistent widow (Luke 18:1-8)[1]? Jesus begins by telling his disciples this parable to show them they should always pray and not give up. And to me that meant relentlessly praying, even begging, and almost trying to bend his will to my prayers. But I don't think that's the point! Briefly the parable goes like this: He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.' “For some time he refused. But finally, he said to himself, ‘Even though I don't fear God or care what people think, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually come and attack me'” (Luke 18:2-5)! Here is an unjust corrupt judge who doesn't fear God or care about people. And a widow, who particularly in those days is quite vulnerable. She has no provider or protector. And she's asking for justice. Repeatedly. But the judge refuses. Finally, she wears him down because she keeps “bothering” him and he gives her justice. And to me this meant I need to wear God down with my prayer requests in order for him to answer. I thought that I needed to continually bug him to get his attention. That somehow the accumulation of my prayers would make a difference. I don't think this is what Jesus was talking about. That would be equating God to this unjust judge, and he is not at all like that. He cares about us, he cares about justice, it's his unchangeable character. And I am not like the nameless widow. God knows me, loves me, provides for and protects me. Jesus tells us why he told this parable in verse 1 to show that we should always pray and not give up. And that can be hard to do when you're in that waiting room. When you and I persist in praying, in talking to God, our hearts become more inclined to his. It's a life of prayer that we are called to—a life of continual conversation with God. And it's more about how our hearts and minds can be transformed to his. So yes, pray continually. And trust that in his perfect timing he will answer. As the Psalmist said: I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in his word, I hope (Psalm 130:5 ESV). --- [1] Dr. Kent Hughes, “Living in the ‘Not Yet'” Series: Luke, January 8, 2008, https://preachingtheword.com/av_item.php?avid=579

Presented by Julie Busteed Waiting is not my favorite thing! Whether it is waiting in a store line, waiting in traffic, waiting for a doctor's appointment, or waiting for the coffee maker to finish! The most challenging thing can be to wait on God to answer my prayer or give direction. Or waiting for a difficult situation to resolve, or a hard season of life to ease up. We are called to persevere. To continue to trust God and wait on him. The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him (Lamentations 3:25). When I read the account of Noah in Genesis 8—a familiar story to most of us—I am encouraged to trust God in the waiting. Noah obeyed God in building the ark and gathering all the animals. Scholars think the entire time he and his family were on the boat was about a year. After all the rain and flooding, Noah sent out a dove to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground. But the dove returned and so he waited some more and sent the dove out again. Finally, the dove returns with an olive leaf. Now Noah could see the water was gone but he waited until God told him it was time to get out of the boat—till the ground was completely dry. It probably seemed like he could have left the boat earlier since he couldn't see any water. But he trusted, obeyed and waited. After being in that boat for a year, I imagine it had to be challenging! But he trusted God. There was purpose in the waiting. Another familiar story about waiting and trusting is raising Lazarus from the dead (John 11). Jesus and his disciples get word that his friend Lazarus is ill. And Jesus' response is to wait! He says to his disciples, Lazarus has died, and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him (John 11:14-15). What? How does that make any sense to the disciples! When they finally arrived, Lazarus had been dead and in the tomb for four days. And to everyone's amazement Jesus calls him to come out of the tomb. Now up to then Jesus had done many miraculous things—many healings, providing food, casting out demons. But here he publicly shows even more of his glory by raising Lazarus from the dead. If they had not waited, but gone to Lazarus right away, then it would have been just another healing. But by waiting—being patient—and even suffering as the sisters of Lazarus, Mary and Martha had done, they are given even a greater view of who Jesus is—his character and his love. Maybe that's where you are right now. Deep in the middle of a dark time. You don't have any hope. You look around at your circumstances and it seems bleak and hopeless. But maybe God is using this waiting time to draw you closer to him, so that you can trust him more deeply, and then be shown his glory more greatly.

While we are living in between the now and not yet, Elder Greg Harrell declares the truth about how to live Biblically and always honor The Lord in times like our.

After US President Donald Trump and his Health Secretary RFJ Jnr announced that women shouldn't take Tylenol as it has been linked with increase in children being diagnosed with autism diagnosis, women all of a sudden had a new thing to be worried about.

Is perimenopause more than hot flushes and night sweats? We go to Med School to find out if your breasts are not the only place that you can lactate from. And in our Quick Consult, why do we keep falling for the “sweet trap” of late-night junk food? In this episode, we talk to Dr Sonia Davison, an endocrinologist at the Jean Hailes Medical Centre and Past President of the Australian Menopause Society, to explore the long and unusual list of perimenopause symptoms - from dry vaginas, irritating itchiness and UTIs to vertigo and that pesky chin hair growth. We also discuss why doctors don’t rely on hormone tests to diagnose perimenopause and what’s really happening in your body during this ‘period of chaos’. Plus, why perimenopause can put a huge strain on relationships and how our partners can support us with open conversations about intimacy and emotional closeness.

Do you find yourself wide awake at 3 a.m? Ever wondered what it’s really like to live with chronic insomnia? Then this episode is for you... This week, in our Well special episode, we sit down with our Mamamia colleague Annaliese Todd, who shares her deeply personal and decades-long struggle with sleep. From pregnancy-induced insomnia, to the crippling sleep deprivation that accompanied her diagnosis with depression, Annaliese opens up about the raw reality of chasing sleep every single night. She discusses how insomnia has impacted her mental health, her parenting and her daily life, describing the feeling of being detatched from her own body and the world around her. Annaliese also explores the treatments she’s tried—from meditation music to medication—and the constant fear of the long-term health consequences of sleep deprivation. And, she gives all our fellow listeners her straight-talking advice of when to seek help with your sleep. _____________________________________________________ THE END BITS All your health information is in the Well Hub.

"Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes." Psalm 37:7Life often feels like a waiting room, filled with anticipation for what's to come. Just as we sit in a waiting room, eyes fixed on the door that leads to our next opportunity or blessing, we must remember that this period of waiting is not a void but a vital season of preparation. Psalm 37:7 reminds us to "Rest in the Lord and wait patiently." In these moments, we learn to cultivate patience, a virtue that flourishes when we surrender our hurried desires and embrace God's perfect timing.Reflect on the remarkable account of Simeon and Anna, devoted individuals who spent their whole lives anticipating the arrival of the promised Savior (see Luke 2:25-38). Their unwavering faith during years of waiting exemplifies how trust in God's timing can lead to profound joy. When Simeon finally held the infant Jesus in his arms, he recognized that every moment of waiting had been worth it. Their lives illustrate that waiting is not a passive state; it is an active engagement with our faith, where God molds us into who we are meant to be.Lamentations 3:25-26 says, "The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him. It is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD."As we navigate our own waiting periods, we must remember that “every waiting room holds a thousand silent stories, woven together by patience and possibility.” Just as flowers bloom in their season, so too do our hopes and dreams unfold in accordance with God's plan. In these times of uncertainty, we can find peace in knowing that God is crafting a masterpiece, one brushstroke at a time. The waiting room teaches us the invaluable art of being present. It's easy to become distracted by what lies ahead or to dwell on what has passed. However, in this sacred space of waiting, we learn to cherish each moment, allowing our hearts to align with God's will. Amen. Isaiah 40:31 says, “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint.” Amen.Prayer for the Day! Dear Lord, thank You for the seasons of waiting in our lives. Help us to rest in Your presence and trust in Your perfect timing. Brethren, I pray for you that in your season of waiting, may your heart not grow weary as days pass by, but instead, may your spirit be renewed every morning, knowing that what He has spoken, He will surely bring to pass. Let the stories of Simeon and Anna remind you: God remembers those who wait upon Him. He sees every tear, hears every prayer, and at the appointed time, He will make all things beautiful. In Jesus' name. Amen.https://maglife.org

Are you waiting for some future event to start truly living your faith? This exploration challenges the "rapture theology" mindset that keeps believers on the sidelines, waiting for tomorrow instead of engaging with God's kingdom today. Why do so many talented people start using their gifts for God's kingdom, only to eventually redirect them toward purely personal ambitions? Through the parable of the talents, discover how fear—not inability—becomes the greatest obstacle to spiritual growth. What would change if you realized that God isn't the harsh taskmaster some believe Him to be, but rather a loving Father who wants to partner with you right now? The difference between living in fear of what you might lose versus stepping boldly into what God wants to build through you could transform everything. Recorded Sunday, September 7th, 2025.

From sleep deprivation to sleep eating. Napping to teeth grinding. Ask us anything. We’ve got you covered. In this episode, Dr Mariam and Claire Murphy answer all your questions about sleep and go through the four stages. They discuss what sleep deprivation does to you physically and mentally and how changing hormones can stop you getting a good night’s rest.

This week, Kingsleymac is on vacation spending money in Vegas, so I asked a long time friend to guest co-host for me...he's been supporting our podcast since the beginning in 2019 and has a long running gaming podcast Just Some Gamers and a more personal interview podcast Get On In Here .  He has a vibrant community where he streams live on his Twitch Channel .  We review some of the most exciting things coming to the new Edge of Fate, including this week's "This Week in Destiny" blog from Bungie.  We answer questions from our community and catch up on our week and what Fudd has been doing since I've last talked with him.  Lastly, we discuss the way the video game industry is changing in the wake of Microsoft laying off over 9000 jobs from its Xbox and other subsidiaries. Don't forget the outtakes at the end of the show!   Welcome to Guardian Down Cast: A Destiny Podcast...if you love to play the game Destiny 2, you've come to the right place.  We're a podcast community full of like minded Guardians who love the game.
