    Kim Kardashian's Trainer Senada Greca: Why Women Shouldn't Fear Heavy Weights
    2026/09/15
    Muscle is having its moment, and the woman leading the charge trains one of the most famous bodies in the world. Senada Greca, Kim Kardashian's trainer, joins Dr. A and Mary Alice to make the case that strength is a woman's birthright, and that lifting heavy will not make you bulky. It will make you powerful, capable, and built to last. Senada shares how she went from using exercise to punish her body to using it to build herself, and how strength training became a tool that helped her heal. She and the hosts get into why so many of us were taught to fear the weight rack, what strength really does for your bones, your brain, and your longevity as you age, and how to start moving from a place of love instead of punishment. Her advice for every woman listening: move, move mindfully, and move heavy.

  • PCOS: The Signs Your Doctor Might Be Missing

    PCOS: The Signs Your Doctor Might Be Missing
    2026/09/08

    NOTE: PCOS is now called PMOS, or Polycystic Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome.


    PMOS is about so much more than irregular periods or fertility. In this episode of SheMD, Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi breaks down the four major pillars of PCOS, and explains how they can all be connected.


    This is a deep dive into why PCOS is so often missed, the symptoms that can look different from woman to woman, the role insulin resistance can play, and why you don’t necessarily need high testosterone or polycystic appearing ovaries to meet the criteria for PCOS.


    Dr. A also explains how PCOS can affect weight, acne, hair growth, mood, brain fog, ovulation, fertility, and long-term health, plus what women and parents of teenage girls should know about getting properly evaluated.


    If you’ve ever wondered whether your symptoms could be connected, this episode is your PCOS deep dive.

    The New Perimenopause: A Masterclass with Dr. Mary Claire Haver
    2026/09/01
    The frozen shoulder. The 3 a.m. anxiety. The brain fog and the rage that come out of nowhere. For decades, women were told it was "just stress" and sent home with an antidepressant. This week, Dr. A and Mary Alice welcome back the woman changing that — Dr. Mary Claire Haver, the OB-GYN The New York Times calls the "Menopause Queen" — for a full masterclass on perimenopause.It can start in your late 30s, it lasts 7 to 10 years, and almost no one warned us. Dr. Haver explains what's really happening in your body and brain, why so many women are dismissed, and what you can actually do about it — HRT, progesterone, vaginal estrogen, sleep, mood, and the myth that you have to wait until it's "bad enough" to get help. Because suffering isn't the price of admission.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PMOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

She has dedicated her career to helping women better understand the biological changes that happen during midlife and has been called the “Menopause Queen” by The New York Times.
