  Osteoporosis is showing up at younger ages in women.  So, waiting until menopause to start thinking about your bones is just way too late. That’s why in this episode, I’m joined by orthopedic medicine expert Dr. Doug Lucas for a powerful conversation on bone health, aging, longevity, and why your bones are one of the most important (yet often overlooked) pieces of your long-term wellness.  We’ll dive into the surprising ways your daily habits impact your bone density—and what you can do right now to protect and even rebuild your bones as you age.  Dr. Lucas breaks down the importance of supporting your musculoskeletal system, screening and early prevention measures, and why your 30s and 40s are critical decades for building lifelong bone strength.  Strong bones mean a strong life—and it’s never too early (or too late!) to start taking care of them!

  Too many women are being told NO to getting hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for their menopause symptoms in midlife.  But the truth is… the benefits of HRT can WAY outweigh the risks for helping you feel like yourself again. The problem?  The massive knowledge gap in hormonal medicine.   That’s why this week, I’m joined by the incredible Dr. Louise Newson, a trailblazing general practitioner and menopause specialist who’s transforming the conversation around hormone health.  We’re diving into the real risks of not prescribing HRT, why hormones can be a game changer for your symptoms, and the surprising link between menopause, migraines, and inflammation.  Dr. Newson is bringing the science and clarity to the HRT convo, and she’s here to help you reclaim your voice—and your hormonal health.  Listen here to set the record straight and start advocating for what you truly deserve!

Yet… It's only a minority of women in our countries and other countries that are receiving it.”  “It's harrowing what people are being told by their clinicians. And they often just want advice. They don't always want treatment, or they want to know the treatment options available to them in the future. But they're not getting any answers, and I think this is a great disservice to women.”  “I see a lot in the clinic, women who have seen all sorts of specialists, have all sorts of treatments, but no one's spoken about their hormones.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Dr. Louise Newson’s Website Dr. Newson’s Instagram Dr. Newson’s Podcast Get Dr. Newson’s FREE Balance App: Your go-to for Menopause Health  Pre-order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution HERE!  RELATED EPISODES  #647: Hormone Optimization Therapy (HOT) Isn’t Your Mom’s HRT + It’s One Of The Best Strategies For Longevity with Dr. Amy Killen #648: This Changes Everything: The Perimenopause Revolution Every Woman Needs Now #620: What You Need to Know About Premature Menopause, Perimenopause, HRT and Your Options with Dr. Salome Masghati #605: Breaking the HRT Confusion: The Truth Behind Hormone Replacement Therapy for Perimenopausal Women with Karen Martel
