In this inaugural episode of the Menopause Moxie Podcast, host Marie Hoäg, Clinical Hormone Coach, is joined by her producer and co-host Maggie Kuhn to challenge the myths and misinformation surrounding perimenopause and menopause. Marie shares her deeply personal journey through hormonal imbalance, misdiagnosis, and decades of unnecessary psychotropic medications — and how discovering therapeutic-dose estrogen changed her life.

This candid conversation introduces listeners to Marie’s mission: to uncover the truth about estrogen, expose the failures of conventional “low-dose” hormone therapies, and open up dialogue about advanced HRT protocols that fully restore hormones rather than manage symptoms.

Listeners will walk away with a new perspective on perimenopause, menopause, and female hormone balancing — one that is hopeful, evidence-driven, and uncompromising.

• Why estrogen is the hormone of life, and no woman feels good without enough of it.

• How Marie’s personal experience with migraines, mood swings, PMS/PMDD, and endometriosis led to decades of misdiagnosis and harmful treatments.

• The shocking moment when a doctor recommended shock therapy as her “next step” — and why she refused.

• How one physician reframed her depression as estrogen deficiency, not a Prozac deficiency.

• The birth of Panacea Sciences: a telehealth clinic and physician/coach training platform dedicated to advanced therapeutic-dose hormone protocols.

• The dangers of low-dose, symptom-management HRT programs that dominate the marketplace.

• Why Marie believes menopause is not inevitable and what women can do to prevent or reverse it.

• The urgent need for more research on estrogen and advanced protocols — and why women deserve better than “we don’t know enough.”
