Most women are told that feeling exhausted, gaining weight, losing muscle, and watching their body change after 40 is just what happens. Dr. Stephanie Estima is here to tell you that's the wrong map. BETTER is the podcast for women in perimenopause and menopause who want to build real strength, understand their hormones, and take body composition seriously — without the diet culture nonsense and without the fear. Dr. Stephanie is a chiropractor, brain health expert, and one of the few voices in the menopause space who leads with fitness, muscle, and what your body is actually capable of. Each week she brings the world's leading researchers, clinicians, and practitioners into conversation — then translates the science into something you can use on Monday morning. Topics include strength training in perimenopause, body composition after 40, HRT and hormonal health, bone density, metabolic health, injury prevention, sleep, nutrition, and the kind of training that actually works when your body is changing. This is not a podcast about surviving menopause. It's about building the strongest, most capable version of yourself — at the exact moment most women are told to expect less.2019 - 2026 All Rights Reserved エクササイズ・フィットネス フィットネス・食生活・栄養 代替医療・補完医療 衛生・健康的な生活

  • Skinny Is Where You Go to Die: Muscle Power & Myokines for Ageing Women with Dr. Paul Taylor

    Skinny Is Where You Go to Die: Muscle Power & Myokines for Ageing Women with Dr. Paul Taylor
    2026/10/12
    Your muscles aren't just for moving — they're an endocrine organ, releasing hundreds of signalling molecules called myokines every time you contract them. Dr. Paul Taylor breaks down the science of myokines, why muscular power (not just strength) is the strongest predictor of how long you'll live, and why the pursuit of "skinny" is costing women their healthspan.RESOURCES MENTIONEDDeath by Comfort: How Modern Life Is Killing Us and What We Can Do About It by Dr. Paul TaylorThe Hardiness Podcast with Dr. Paul TaylorDr. Paul Taylor's websiteFrank W.

  • Perimenopause Doesn't Cause ADHD, It Unmasks It: Reclaim Your Brain with Dr. Jolene Brighten

    Perimenopause Doesn't Cause ADHD, It Unmasks It: Reclaim Your Brain with Dr. Jolene Brighten
    2026/10/05

    Were you ever told you were "so smart, but" on a report card? So smart, but too chatty. So smart, but not living up to your potential. Dr. Jolene Brighten, naturopathic endocrinologist and author of the forthcoming ADHD and Women, unpacks why ADHD in women looks nothing like the stereotype, and why so many women aren't diagnosed until their late 30s or 40s, often only after their own child gets diagnosed first.

    If you've ever felt like the strategies that used to work for you have quietly stopped working, this episode might give you language for something you've been carrying alone for a long time.

    🎤 TOPICS COVERED

    • ADHD in women: symptoms, diagnosis, and why it's missed for decades
    • Why ADHD looks different in women versus men
    • Perimenopause and ADHD: why symptoms get worse in midlife

    • Executive dysfunction explained: time blindness, task paralysis, and emotional dysregulation
    • ADHD masking in women: people-pleasing, perfectionism, and burnout
    • Estrogen, progesterone, and the ADHD brain: how hormones affect dopamine and focus
    • PMDD and ADHD: the connection between your cycle and your symptoms
    • Progesterone sensitivity and hormone replacement therapy for ADHD women
    • PCOS, PMOS, and the androgen-ADHD connection
    • ADHD and genetics: is ADHD hereditary
    • Nutrition for ADHD: gut health, protein, and the three foods Dr. Brighten recommends weekly
    • Exercise and the ADHD brain: lactate, BDNF, and why movement improves focus
    • Best workouts for ADHD: strength training, sprints, and mobility work
    • Creatine, saffron, bacopa, and other supplements for ADHD
    • Sleep and ADHD: delayed sleep phase syndrome and the default mode network

  • Hypermobile? Yes, You Can Strength Train (Here's How to Do It Safely)

    Hypermobile? Yes, You Can Strength Train (Here's How to Do It Safely)
    2026/09/28
    If you can touch your thumb to your forearm, your elbows bend backward when you lock them out, or you've spent your life being called "double-jointed" like it's a party trick — this episode is your explainer.Dr. Stephanie walks through what hypermobility actually is, the three-tier spectrum from simple joint laxity to Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder to hEDS, and why the standard fitness advice (more stretching, more mobility work, taking it easy) is often exactly backwards for this population. The real issue was never flexibility — it's instability.Dr. Stephanie also explains safe strength training when your passive stabilizers can’t protect your end range, why controlled range is better than maximum range, and the specific training variables (tempo, isometrics, balance work) that build the neuromuscular control hypermobile bodies lack. She also covers nutrition considerations (protein, vitamin C, collagen timing) and recovery pacing, and reframes the idea that losing muscle while hypermobile makes you safer.TOPICS COVEREDWhat hypermobility is and how it's screened (the Beighton score)The three tiers: joint hypermobility, Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD), and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS)Why hypermobility itself isn't the problem — instability isPassive stabilizers vs. active stabilizers, explainedWhy estrogen increases ligament laxity (and why women are more affected than men)Proprioceptive deficits: why hypermobile joints don't send a clear "too far" warning signalWhy strength training is a primary treatment strategy, not a nice-to-haveTraining in controlled range (about 80-90% of passive range) instead of maximum rangePractical cueing for squats, presses, and overhead workControlled eccentrics, isometrics, and balance/proprioceptive trainingWhy passive static stretching is generally counterproductive for this populationJoint-by-joint programming (why shoulders and hips need the most attention)Nutrition: protein targets, vitamin C, and collagen peptide timingRecovery: pacing over pushing, sleep, and how to tell soreness from a warning signWhy chasing "skinny" is especially risky for hypermobile women in midlifeRESOURCES MENTIONED https://drstephanieestima.com/podcasts/ep488OUR SPONSORSALGAECALListeners can try AlgaeCal Collagen and get a special discount off their first purchase through our special offer.
