In this episode, we lift the weight (pun intended) off outdated ideas about women and strength training. From the myth that “lifting makes you bulky” to the quiet power of seeing your first pull-up, we talk about what it really means to build strength — physically, mentally, and culturally.

This week, we plunge into the unfiltered depths of Reddit where no topic is too taboo — or too fragrantly described.

From a man genuinely asking, “Do I tell my girlfriend her vagina smells like a lab rat?” to the philosophical debate over “the advent of whole-body deodorant” and the timeless question, “Why are women shaming each other for having bushes?” — we read it all so you don’t have to.

In this follow-up episode, we dive deeper into what truly makes sex “magnificent” in midlife and beyond. Dr. Peggy Kleinplatz returns with Dr. Ardelle Piper to unpack how desire, connection, and communication evolve as our bodies and relationships change. Together, we explore how vulnerability, mindfulness, and curiosity—not perfection—are at the heart of great sex.

We’re talking magnificent sex—yes, really—with Dr. Peggy Kleinplatz, the researcher who literally wrote the book on it, and Dr. Arielle Piper, OB/GYN and menopause specialist. From mind-blowing intimacy to midlife desire, this two-part episode dives deep into what makes sex meaningful, connected, and actually magnificent.

Is the IUD really the queen of contraception? In this episode, we break down everything you need to know about intrauterine devices—from how they work and the different types (hormonal vs. copper), to the myths, side effects, and what insertion actually feels like. We’ll talk about why so many people swear by the IUD, who it’s best for, and why it might just deserve its crown as the most effective, low-maintenance birth control option.

From magazines to med-spa menus, vulvas are under the microscope like never before. In this episode, we tackle one of the most common (and hush-hush) questions: “Is my vulva normal?” We’ll talk about the huge spectrum of what’s natural, why no two vulvas look alike, and how shame sneaks in. Plus, we dig into the rise of aesthetic medicine—from labial fillers (the so-called “labial puffer”) to cosmetic procedures—and what’s hype versus what’s helpful. Think evidence-based medicine meets real talk, with a side of body confidence.

In Part 1, we tackled the chaos of perimenopause and menopause and asked what the f*ck is going on. Now it’s time to talk solutions. In this second half of our conversation with Dr. Ardelle Piper, we dive into what actually helps — from lifestyle tweaks and supplements to hormone therapy and other medical options. We’ll break down the myths, talk about what’s safe (and what’s not), and share how women can take back control of their bodies, their moods, their sleep, and their sex lives. Practical, evidence-based, and a little bit raw — this episode is all about helping you feel like yourself again.

Hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, brain fog — is your body suddenly doing things you don’t recognize? In this first of a two-part series, we sit down with Dr. Ardelle Piper to unpack the chaos of perimenopause and menopause. From hormones dropping off a cliff to why your sleep, mood, and waistline may all feel out of control, we break down what’s actually happening in your body during this transition. With a mix of science, straight talk, and humor, we cut through the confusion so you can finally understand what the f*ck is going on.
