What happens when two menopause experts swap their own stories of brain fog, joint pain, and midlife panic attacks? Spoiler: It’s raw, relatable, and eye-opening.
This episode is like no other. I sit down with my colleague and friend, Dr. Heidi Flagg, for one of the most open and candid conversations I’ve had on the podcast. We don’t just talk about the science of menopause—we share our own symptoms, challenges, and the surprising ways hormones have shaped our journeys.
Dr. Flagg and I explore the lesser-discussed symptoms of menopause, including brain fog, joint pain, and more. I share my own experience with a midlife panic attack and how it opened my eyes to the complexities of this transition. Together, we debunk myths about hormone therapy, dive into the vital connection between estrogen and brain health, and highlight the transformative power of lifestyle changes like weight training and improving sleep. This episode is all about addressing the symptoms no one talks about and empowering you with the knowledge to thrive.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re the only one struggling with menopause symptoms, this episode will show you that even the experts have been there—and we’re here to help. With humor, honesty, and a ton of actionable insights, we explore how to navigate midlife with confidence.
