Feel Like Yourself Again: Bioidentical Hormones & Menopause After 40 🧬 | Radiant Conversation Ep. 7

Chad Sperry: Menopause Is Not the End — Hormone Replacement, Bioidentical Therapy & How to Feel Like Yourself Again | Radiant Conversation Ep. ?Joe and Shaun sit down with Chad Sperry — Family Nurse Practitioner and owner of Holistic Family Wellness — for a frank, myth-busting conversation about the hormonal shifts women over 40 face. Chad breaks down what's actually happening to your body during perimenopause and menopause, why so many doctors miss the real cause of your symptoms, and why it's never too late to feel good again. In this episode, we cover:

• 🌡️ What menopause actually is (it's not just about age — and it can start in your 40s)
• 🔥 The hidden symptoms nobody warns you about: hot flashes, brain fog, fatigue, mood swings, and why you're tired no matter how much you sleep
• 🧪 Why a single blood draw for hormones isn't enough — and the thyroid, cortisol, and gut checks most doctors skip
• 💊 Bioidentical vs. synthetic hormones: what the 2001 Women's Health Initiative study really found (and what it means for breast cancer risk)
• 💉 Pellets, patches, creams, and drops — the delivery methods explained without the medical jargon
• 🔑 Why women need testosterone too (yes, really) for bone, heart, and brain health
• 🌱 The everyday culprits wrecking your hormones: plastics, phytoestrogens, and the meats you eat
• 🛌 How progesterone helps you sleep — and why the "right" exercise is the one you'll actually do
• 🏥 Chad's blunt advice: be your own advocate and find a specialist who looks at the whole puzzle, not just one number

From the "100-piece puzzle" of your body to the simple truth that it's never too late, Chad Sperry gives women over 40 permission to stop suffering in silence and start feeling like themselves again.
