Send us a textWhat do lottery winners and failed diets have in common? They both hand you the prize before you've done the work… and they both usually end in disaster. In this episode of the Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, we're diving into why most quick fixes fail — and why you don't want a shortcut to your dream body (even if I could magically give it to you). You'll learn why true transformation only comes when you earn it — through consistent, sustainable habits that may not be sexy… but absolutely work.

In this raw and real episode, I open up about what it looks like to step away—not because you're giving up, but because you're honoring what your body, mind, and spirit are telling you.

In this episode, we're tackling one of the biggest misconceptions in women's health: the safety and importance of hormone therapy. For decades, women have been fearful of hormones due to the 2002 Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study, which left millions worried about cancer risks. But with new research and nearly 20 years of data, we're now seeing a resurgence of hormone therapy as a powerful tool for long-term health. Tune in as we break down the latest findings on how hormone therapy can protect against breast and colon cancer, osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and even dementia. We'll also discuss why many doctors may still be out of date on this critical topic and what to consider if you're thinking about optimizing your hormones for better health.
