This week on Well, That’s Awkward, Susan Osman and Rachel Branson explore the voice — how it changes as we age, how stress and hormones affect it, and why finding your voice in midlife can feel both empowering and uncomfortable.

From vocal coaching and communication styles to the age-old question of whether men and women really speak different emotional languages, this episode looks at how we express ourselves — and why so many women stop sugarcoating as they get older.

An honest, funny conversation about speaking your truth… even when your voice shakes.

In this episode of Well, That’s Awkward, Susan Osman and Rachel Branson explore the world of Ayurveda — the 5,000-year-old holistic health system built around balance, energy and individual constitution.

Rachel has just returned from an Ayurvedic retreat in the Dolomites, and together they unpack what really happens at an Ayurvedic retreat, the three doshas (Pitta, Vata and Kapha), and why so many women turn to alternative health approaches in midlife.

They discuss oil massages, pulse diagnosis, herbal remedies, digestion, lifestyle balance — and the reality of trying to live Ayurvedically once you’re back home, juggling work and everyday life.

A thoughtful, funny conversation about ancient wisdom, modern wellbeing and finding balance without perfection.

From decoding ingredients with apps to understanding why delivery method matters, this episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating midlife wellbeing.

If you’ve ever stood in a health shop wondering whether that tiny capsule is actually doing anything… this one’s for you.
