    Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, MD: Muscle Building in Midlife, Joint Regeneration, Peptide Protocols, and Why Osteoarthritis Is Not Wear and Tear
    2026/07/02
    Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, co-founder of Boulder Longevity Institute, is one of the rare physicians who spent 30 years in orthopedic and sports medicine before pivoting to longevity and regenerative medicine. This episode covers joint health in women, osteoarthritis, bone density, peptides, perimenopause, hormones, mitochondrial health, and the regenerative protocols most women have never been offered.What she found after decades of patching people together: we have been thinking about joint disease completely wrong. Osteoarthritis is not a wear and tear condition. It is a metabolic disease driven by mitochondrial dysfunction, hormonal decline, and chronic low-grade inflammation, and it can be prevented, slowed, and in many cases reversed if you start addressing it at the root.Most women wait until something breaks before paying attention. By then, the damage has been building for years. The interventions that actually work are available now. They are just not in the standard conversation.Join the most comprehensive *female-specific community for health and longevity optimization.* After over a decade dedicated to human performance and women’s health, I created this space to share everything you need to know to optimize health and lifespan.

    Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist, MD: Hormetic Stress, Women’s Resilience, and the 5 Stressors That Support Longevity
    2026/06/18
    Avoiding stress at all costs may actually be making you less resilient.In this episode, Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist reframes stress as one of the body’s most overlooked tools for longevity. The right kind of challenge can activate repair, strengthen resilience, improve metabolic health, and help the body adapt in ways that support healthier aging over time. Rather than trying to eliminate stress completely, she explains how to use it more intelligently.At the center of the conversation are five key stressors the body appears designed to benefit from when they’re used well: plant phytochemicals, exercise, heat and cold exposure, time-restricted eating, and purpose-driven psychological stress. Sharon also explains why recovery matters and why too little stress can be just as harmful as too much, and how mindset changes the biology of the stress response.A study of 29,000 people found that believing stress is harmful raised the risk of dying by 43%, while viewing it as not harmful lowered that risk by 17%.

    Dr. Martha Gulati, MD: Women's Heart Disease, Female-Specific Risk Factors, and What Medicine Gets Wrong About Cardiovascular Health
    2026/06/11
    Heart disease is not only a man's disease. It is the number one killer of women, responsible for ten times more deaths than breast cancer. And yet most women have never had a real conversation about their cardiovascular risk, because the medical system was not built to catch it in them.Dr. Martha Gulati is the Director of Preventive Cardiology and Associate Director of the Barbra Streisand Women's Heart Center at Cedars-Sinai, Director of the Davis Women's Heart Center at Houston Methodist, and author of Saving Women's Hearts. Her own quote has become one of the most cited lines in women's cardiology: "Heart disease is the number one killer of women, but lack of awareness is a close second."This conversation goes into how the female heart develops disease differently, why women's symptoms get dismissed even when they use the words chest pain, and the pregnancy complications, hormonal history, and inflammatory conditions that quietly raise cardiovascular risk for decades before anything shows up on a standard panel.Join the most comprehensive *female-specific community for health and longevity optimization.* After over a decade dedicated to human performance and women’s health, I created this space to share everything you need to know to optimize health and lifespan.

    Women are often told that painful periods, irregular cycles, bloating, mood changes, fatigue, brain fog, postpartum symptoms, and hormonal shifts are “normal.”But common does not mean something should be ignored.In this episode, Dr. Jolene Brighten, ND joins me for a practical deep dive into female-specific conditions that are too often missed, minimized, or treated in isolation, including endometriosis, adenomyosis, PMDD, PCOS/PMOS, fibroids, postpartum thyroid changes, and the gut-hormone connection.Dr. Brighten explains why endometriosis is not just a reproductive condition, how adenomyosis differs from endometriosis, why PMDD is not simply “bad PMS,” how histamine may play a role in cyclical symptoms, and why PCOS is now being reframed as a broader metabolic and endocrine condition.Join the most comprehensive female-specific community for health and longevity optimization.

    Dr. Izabella Wentz: IBS Root Causes, Leaky Gut, Autoimmunity, and How To Start Healing Your Gut
    2026/05/28
    Less than 25% of people with IBS get real relief from conventional medicine. That number tells you everything about how the current approach is failing.Most people with IBS have been told it is stress, told to take medication, and sent home. But irritable bowel syndrome is not one condition, it is a label applied to a cluster of symptoms that can have 20 to 40 completely different root causes. And left unaddressed, it is one of the most reliable predictors of autoimmune disease down the line.In this episode I sit down with Dr. Izabella Wentz, clinical pharmacist, functional medicine expert, and NYT bestselling author known as the Thyroid Pharmacist. After her own IBS diagnosis in pharmacy school preceded her Hashimoto's diagnosis by six years, she has spent over a decade connecting the dots between gut dysfunction and autoimmunity for hundreds of thousands of people.Join the most comprehensive *female-specific community for health and longevity optimization.* After over a decade dedicated to human performance and women’s health, I created this space to share everything you need to know to optimize health and lifespan.

    2026/05/21
    There is a state where the body gets locked in sympathetic activation and mitochondrial dysfunction at the same time and no matter what supplements you take, no matter what protocols you run, nothing actually works. Dr. Scott Sherr calls it the sympathetic spiral of doom, and in this episode we break down exactly what it is, why so many people are stuck in it without knowing it, and the right sequence to actually get out.Dr. Scott is a board certified internal medicine physician, certified in hyperbaric oxygen therapy and health optimization medicine, and the chief medical officer of One Base Health, the company behind the hyperbaric chamber you see in every episode. He advises me personally on my hyperbaric protocols, including the ovarian longevity protocol I have been running, and this conversation goes deep into the science behind why that protocol makes sense and what we are actually trying to achieve.This episode is sponsored by Zen Basil.

    2026/05/14
    Most women have had bloodwork done. What most women haven't had is the right bloodwork. In this episode, Dr. Poonam Desai, double board certified in lifestyle and emergency medicine, NAM certified in menopause care, and founder of Longevity Place and Her Longevity, breaks down the five labs she runs on every female patient, the optimal values most physicians aren't targeting, and why the standard panel tells you almost nothing about long-term cardiovascular risk, metabolic health, or inflammation. This is one of the most practical longevity conversations I've had for women who want to know where they actually stand.We also go deep on the three female life phases medicine consistently underserves, how women's cardiac symptoms are still being dismissed in clinical settings, and what a real foundational protocol looks like before any advanced intervention enters the picture. The perimenopause section is worth your full attention, what is shifting hormonally and metabolically, why those symptoms should not be pushed through, and why the window for acting is earlier than most women are told.Join the most comprehensive *female-specific community for health and longevity optimization.* After over a decade dedicated to human performance and women’s health, I created this space to share everything you need to know to optimize health and lifespan.
