    The Real Reason Women Get Worse Healthcare (And How To Fit It Now) w/ Priya Bathija

    Priya Bathija is the Founder and CEO of Nyoo Health, an Healthcare Executive, founder of the SABA Institute and former leader at the American Hospital Association. She has spent her career shaping healthcare policy, advising major health systems, and now helps organizations close the massive gap in care that impacts millions of women. Today, Priya joins me to break down why women’s healthcare is still fundamentally broken and what it actually takes to fix it from inside the system. Priya shares how her experience exposed a major disconnect in the healthcare system that causes entire phases of a woman’s life to be overlooked. We dive into why most healthcare organizations believe they need massive capital to improve women’s health and why that belief is wrong. Priya explains how hospitals can make meaningful progress with practical, step-by-step changes using the resources they already have. Our conversation also covers the loss of female clinicians, actionable solutions around flexible work structures, childcare support, and how providers can actually sustain long-term careers. Join us today as we dive into why women’s healthcare is failing, how to fix it without rebuilding the system, how to retain female clinicians, and what it takes to create lasting change in healthcare.

    What No One Tells Women About Painful Sex, Orgasm Issues, & Low Libido (Part 2)

    A lot of women think painful sex, low pleasure, or difficulty reaching orgasm is just something they have to live with.   But that belief is one of the biggest problems.   Because pain during sex… difficulty with orgasm… and changes in sexual function are signals from your body that something isn’t right.   In this episode, I break down the real medical reasons behind some of the most common sexual health struggles women experience.   I explain why pain during sex is never normal, even though many women have been conditioned to believe that it is.   You’ll learn:   The three main types of sexual pain doctors evaluate and the conditions that cause them. The science of orgasm and why so many women struggle with it. The treatment options most women don’t realize exist. The tools you can use therapeutically to improve blood flow, reduce pain signals, and support your sexual function.   I also answer common questions women ask but rarely get answers to, including whether medications like Viagra can be used for female sexual health and how doctors approach treatment using a full biopsychosocial model.   If you’ve ever wondered whether what you’re experiencing is “normal,” this episode may change how you think about your sexual health.

    Jamie Greenwood is a Somatic Life and Leadership Coach who has spent nearly 20 years helping people reclaim their time, energy, and identity through healthy boundaries. She is also the host of The Path Home podcast and the creator of the transformational coaching program “Homecoming.” In today’s episode of the Disrupt Her podcast, Jamie joins me to talk about setting boundaries and the kind of boundaries that actually change your life. She shares why so many people fear setting boundaries and the hidden emotional patterns that keep high-performing women stuck in burnout. We dive into the psychology behind boundaries, including why discomfort feels like harm, what prevents people from saying no, and the factors that shape our relationship with self-sacrifice and approval. We share some deeply personal stories that reveal how suppressing the truth can physically show up in the body. Jamie also reveals the powerful connection between stress, health, and emotional alignment. Our conversation expands into real-life tools for reclaiming control of your schedule, protecting your energy, and communicating needs without over-explaining. Jamie also breaks down the difference between healthy boundaries and extreme “no contact,” and how respecting others’ boundaries actually builds trust and strengthens relationships. Join us today as we discuss healthy boundaries, burnout recovery, people-pleasing, emotional capacity, self-trust, and how to truly love yourself and others from a safe distance.

    What No One Tells Women About Painful Sex, Orgasm Issues, & Low Libido

    If you’re dealing with pain during sex, low desire, or trouble orgasming, this video will show you why (and what you can actually do about it). I see women every day dealing with these issues, along with infections, and being told it’s normal or something they just have to live with. It’s not. In this video, as a board-certified OB-GYN and sexual health expert, I walk you through how sexual issues really develop, especially during perimenopause and menopause, and why so many symptoms start years before women are warned. You’ll learn what your body is trying to tell you, what a proper evaluation should include, and what doctors miss when they tell you, “This is normal.” I also share treatment options and pleasure tools that can help you restore comfort, desire, and confidence without feeling ashamed. If you want clarity about your body, real answers, and to feel more in control of your sexual health, this episode of the DisruptHer podcast is for you. You deserve solutions. You deserve real care. And you deserve to feel good in your body.

    Christina Langdon is a high-performance executive coach, former media executive, and author of For Success’s Sake. She advises founders, CEOs, and C-suite leaders who want clarity, impact, and sustainable success without burning themselves into the ground. In today’s episode, Christina joins me to unpack what she calls the “midlife rift.” We explore why so many successful female leaders feel depleted, disconnected, and stuck, despite checking all the boxes of success. We dive into how identity loss happens in midlife, especially for women who have spent decades becoming everything for everyone else. Christina also shares the three limiting factors that keep high performers from entering the next chapter of their success. The conversation covers why executive leadership can be profoundly lonely and why losses often feel twice as loud as wins. Christina explains how she helps leaders reclaim their voice, rebuild self-worth, and separate their value from performance. You’ll learn how to preserve relationships, overcome burnout, increase your capacity, and adopt the non-negotiable habits that reshaped Christina’s life even after multiple health crises. Join us to learn how to move through the midlife rift with clarity, protect your energy, rebuild belief in yourself, and design a future that truly feels like yours.
