  • How Old Are You Really? Biological Age, Epigenetics & DNA Methylation
    2026/10/13
    Can your biological age be different from the age on your driver’s license?And if it is...what does that actually mean?In this episode of The Ageless Woman Podcast, Dr. Cindy Grow, DNP, APRN, AGNP-BC, sits down with Adiv Johnson, PhD, Vice President of Scientific Affairs at TruDiagnostic, for a fascinating conversation about epigenetics, DNA methylation, biological age, longevity, and the science of healthy aging.Dr. Johnson has spent nearly two decades in aging research and has contributed to more than 50 peer-reviewed publications related to aging, age-related disease, regenerative medicine, and biomarkers of longevity.Together, we explore one of the biggest questions in modern longevity science:Why can two people who are both 55 years old be aging very differently on the inside?In this episode, we discuss:What epigenetics actually meansThe difference between genetics and epigeneticsHow DNA methylation influences gene regulationChronological age versus biological ageWhat an epigenetic aging clock measuresWhy biological age is more than one numberThe difference between biological age and pace of agingHow TruDiagnostic evaluates biological aging through tools such as OMICmAge™, SymphonyAge™, and DunedinPACE™Why organ-system aging may provide a more detailed picture than chronological age aloneHow sleep, exercise, nutrition, stress, metabolic health, and environmental exposures may influence epigenetic patternsWhy lifestyle can affect the way our biology expresses itself over timeWhat epigenetic testing can—and cannot—tell usWhy one biological-age result should not define your healthWhy repeat testing and longitudinal trends may be more useful than chasing one “perfect” scoreThe emerging science around menopause, midlife, and biological agingHow epigenetic biomarkers may fit into the future of precision medicine and preventive healthTruDiagnostic describes DNA methylation as one of the most studied epigenetic mechanisms and uses methylation patterns to estimate biological age, organ-system aging, and the rate at which someone is aging. Their TruAge platform combines multiple next-generation aging measures rather than relying on a single biological-age number.One of the most important lessons from this episode is:Your DNA is not the entire story.Genetics represents the sequence you inherit.Epigenetics helps us understand how gene activity may be influenced over time by factors such as age, environment, lifestyle, health, and other biological exposures.That does not mean we can control every aspect of aging.And it does not mean a biological-age test can predict exactly how long you will live.But it may help us ask better questions about the direction our biology is moving.At My Venus Club, that is exactly how we approach advanced testing.We are not chasing a younger number simply for the sake of saying:“My biological age is younger than my chronological age.”We are asking:What is this data telling us?Which systems may need more attention?How is your body responding to the way you are sleeping...eating...moving...recovering...and managing metabolic health?And most importantly:Is the trajectory improving over time?Because healthy aging is not about stopping the clock.It is about preserving:strength...metabolic resilience...cardiovascular health...cognitive function...cellular health...and the ability to remain fully engaged in life.Whether you are curious about biological-age testing, longevity medicine, DNA methylation, epigenetics, healthy aging, or simply want to better understand how lifestyle may influence the way you age, this episode will help make the science understandable and practical.As Dr. Grow always says:“You can’t optimize what you don’t understand.”Listen Now🎙️ Listen to The Ageless Woman Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube, or at:https://www.myvenusclub.com/podcast🌐 Learn more about My Venus Club:https://www.myvenusclub.comSearch Topicsepigenetics | biological age | DNA methylation | epigenetic testing | TruDiagnostic | TruAge | TruHealth | Adiv Johnson PhD | biological aging | pace of aging | epigenetic clocks | DunedinPACE | OMICmAge | SymphonyAge | longevity | healthy aging | healthspan | cellular health | aging biomarkers | genetics vs epigenetics | menopause and aging | women’s longevity | precision medicine | preventive medicine | functional medicine | metabolic health | healthy aging for women | My Venus Club | The Ageless Woman PodcastMEDICAL DISCLAIMERThe information shared on The Ageless Woman Podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to replace individualized medical advice, diagnosis, cancer screening, or treatment.Breast cancer risk is highly individualized.

  • 24: Breast Cancer: Know Your Risk, Understand Your Biology
    2026/10/07
    Genetics, Hormones, Cellular Health, Lifestyle & the Choices That May Influence Your FutureWhat actually affects breast cancer risk?Is it genetics?Hormones?Alcohol?Body composition?Metabolic health?Environmental exposures?Or lifestyle?In this episode of The Ageless Woman Podcast, Dr. Cindy Grow, DNP, APRN, AGNP-BC, takes a deeper look at breast cancer risk and prevention through the lens of genetics, hormones, cellular health, metabolism, lifestyle, and environment.This is not a conversation about fear.It is about understanding risk.Because breast cancer is not caused by one single factor, and having a risk factor does not mean you will develop cancer.In this episode, we explore:How breast cancer begins at the cellular levelWhy genetics matter—but are not the whole storyWhat BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, and other inherited risk genes can tell usWhy family history from both your mother’s and father’s side mattersWhy most breast cancers are not explained by inherited BRCA mutationsHow physical activity, body composition, alcohol, and metabolic health may influence riskWhy muscle and insulin sensitivity matter as part of the larger healthspan pictureThe role of inflammation, oxidative stress, and cellular healthWhat we know—and do not yet know—about environmental exposuresWhy hormone testing does not diagnose or rule out breast cancerHow hormonal exposure can influence breast tissueWhy hormone replacement therapy should be individualizedWhy HRT conversations after breast cancer should be based on tumor biology, personal history, symptom burden, and shared decision-makingWhy prevention is about risk reduction—not guaranteesWhat women should know about breast cancer screening, genetic counseling, and personal risk assessmentOne of the most important messages in this episode is:Risk is not destiny.Genetics can significantly influence risk.But genes do not exist in isolation.Your biology is also shaped by:movement...nutrition...sleep...metabolic health...alcohol exposure...environment...hormonal history...and aging.That does not mean lifestyle can erase a high-risk genetic mutation.And it does not mean a woman who develops breast cancer did something wrong.It means breast cancer risk is complex, and women deserve a more complete conversation than simply:“Get your mammogram and hope for the best.”At My Venus Club, we believe prevention begins with understanding.That means looking at:genetics...family history...hormones...metabolism...body composition...cardiovascular health...nutrition...movement...sleep...stress...and environmental exposures...and then asking:What can we influence?This episode also explores one of the most debated topics in women’s health:Menopausal Hormone Therapy After Breast CancerDr. Grow discusses the important 2026 article:“Menopausal Hormone Therapy After Breast Cancer: Personalization, Not Prohibition”by Linda D. Bosserman, MD, and Don S. Dizon, MD.The key message is not that hormone therapy is appropriate for every breast cancer survivor.It is that menopausal care after breast cancer should move away from blanket statements and toward individualized, evidence-informed, shared decision-making.Systemic hormone therapy after a prior hormone-sensitive breast cancer remains a highly individualizedFeatured ResearchBosserman LD, Dizon DS. “Menopausal Hormone Therapy After Breast Cancer: Personalization, Not Prohibition.”Journal of Clinical Oncology. 2026;44(18):1665–1669.PMID: 41915866. DOI: 10.1200/JCO-25-03121.This important 2026 discussion highlights the need for individualized, shared decision-making around menopausal symptom management after breast cancer rather than approaching every survivor with the same blanket recommendation.PubMed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41915866/ MEDICAL DISCLAIMERThe information shared on The Ageless Woman Podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to replace individualized medical advice, diagnosis, cancer screening, or treatment.Breast cancer risk is highly individualized. Decisions regarding genetic testing, breast imaging, cancer prevention, menopausal hormone therapy, vaginal hormone therapy, medications, supplements, or other interventions should be made with appropriately qualified healthcare professionals who understand your personal and family history.If you have a personal history of breast cancer, decisions about menopausal hormone therapy require individualized risk-benefit assessment and may require collaboration with your oncology team.New breast lumps, nipple discharge, skin or nipple changes, or other concerning breast symptoms should be medically evaluated and should not be managed based solely on information discussed in this podcast.Listening to this podcast does not establish a patient-provider relationship with Dr. Cindy Grow, My Venus Club, or any podcast guest. © My Venus Club.

  • 23: When Desire Changes, Ask Why?
    2026/09/23
    The Real Conversation About Libido, Hormones, Intimacy & Female Sexual WellnessWhy does sexual desire change?Why can sex become painful?Why do some women stop thinking about sex even when they still love and feel attracted to their partner?And how do hormones, stress, sleep, medications, pelvic-floor health, body image, relationships, cardiovascular health, and life stage all affect female sexual wellness?In this episode of The Ageless Woman Podcast, Dr. Cindy Grow, DNP, APRN, AGNP-BC, opens up an honest, unfiltered conversation about women’s sexual health across the lifespan.This episode is raw, real, and grounded in both clinical experience and the science of female sexual function.We talk about what women actually want to know:Why libido can change in your 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyondThe difference between spontaneous desire and responsive desireWhy loving your partner does not always mean automatically wanting sexHow stress, mental load, and exhaustion can suppress desireWhy the brain is one of the most important sex organsHow antidepressants and other medications may affect libido, arousal, lubrication, and orgasmWhy painful sex should not simply be dismissed as “normal”How pelvic-floor dysfunction can affect intimacySexual wellness after pregnancy and childbirthHow perimenopause and menopause can affect vaginal tissue, arousal, comfort, and desireWhat women should know about genitourinary syndrome of menopause, or GSMWhen vaginal estrogen, vaginal DHEA, lubricants, moisturizers, or pelvic-floor therapy may be part of the conversationWhy testosterone is not a magic solution for every libido concernThe truth about female orgasm and why penetration alone is not enough for many womenHow body image influences intimacy and sexual confidenceWhy long-term relationships require intentional connectionWhy sexual wellness still matters after age 60, 70, and beyondHow cardiovascular and metabolic health can influence sexual functionWhy intimacy is about far more than intercourseOne of the most important messages in this episode is simple:When desire changes, ask why.Do not immediately assume something is wrong with you.But also do not dismiss a significant change in your body as “just aging.”Sometimes desire changes because of stress, exhaustion, or relationship context.Sometimes it changes because of hormones.Sometimes pain, pelvic-floor dysfunction, medications, sleep problems, thyroid changes, cardiometabolic health, mental health, or another medical issue may be contributing.And sometimes several of these factors are happening at the same time.The goal is not to blame yourself.The goal is to become curious.Because sexual wellness is not separate from your health.It is connected to your nervous system...your hormones...your circulation...your pelvic floor...your metabolism...your sleep...your emotional health...your relationships...and the way you experience yourself.This episode also includes practical sexual wellness tips for women of all ages, including:How to recognize responsive desireWhen painful sex needs evaluationHow lubricants and vaginal moisturizers differWhy pelvic-floor physical therapy may helpWhen to review medications for sexual side effectsWhy sleep and stress matterHow movement supports sexual healthWhy intimacy should not be defined only by penetrationHow to talk with your partner before problems buildWhen to seek help from a clinician, pelvic-floor therapist, therapist, or certified sex therapistAt My Venus Club, we believe women deserve a whole-person approach to sexual health.Not just a hormone prescription.Not just a quick answer.And not simply being told:“That is normal for your age.”You deserve to understand what changed...what may be contributing...and what options may help.Because sexual wellness is part of whole-person health.And as Dr. Grow always says:“You can’t optimize what you don’t understand.”Listen Now Listen to When Desire Changes, Ask Why on The Ageless Woman Podcast:https://www.myvenusclub.com/podcast Learn more about My Venus Club:https://www.myvenusclub.comSearch Topicsfemale libido | low libido in women | women’s sexual health | female sexual wellness | responsive desire | spontaneous desire | painful sex | dyspareunia | menopause and libido | perimenopause and libido | vaginal dryness | genitourinary syndrome of menopause | GSM | pelvic floor dysfunction | pelvic floor physical therapy | female orgasm | testosterone for women | vaginal estrogen | vaginal DHEA | intimacy after menopause | libido after 40 | libido after 50 | sexual health after 60 | body image and intimacy | stress and libido | sleep and libido | antidepressants and sexual side effects | hormones and libido | cardiovascular health and sexual function | women’s health | healthy aging | My Venus Club | The Ageless Woman PodcastMedical DisclaimerThe information shared on The Ageless Woman Podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended...
