    Endometriosis, fibroids and painful periods | Dr. Sarah Yamaguchi

    The average woman waits 7 years for an endometriosis diagnosis, and 72% report being gaslit by a provider. On this week’s Broadlines, OBGYN Dr. Sarah Yamaguchi joins Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga to break down endometriosis, fibroids, the PCOS-to-PMOS rename, viral TikTok "cures," and the one symptom women should never dismiss: pain. The takeaway? Common and normal are not the same thing, and learning to say "this bothers me, how do we fix it?" can change the way women receive care. EPISODE CREDITS...

    Optimism or toxic positivity? | Dr. Deepika Chopra

    On this episode of Broadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with behavioral scientist and clinical health psychologist Dr. Deepika Chopra to unpack what “real optimism” actually means — and why toxic positivity can do more harm than good. From manifestation and self-limiting beliefs to grief, resilience, and emotional regulation, Dr. Chopra breaks down the science behind optimism, why affirmations don’t always work, and how to build genuine psychological strength instead of pretending everything is fine. This conversation is honest, emotional, and packed with practical tools for navigating uncertainty, burnout, relationships, motherhood, and modern wellness culture. EPISODE CREDITS...

    The Badass Moms Club | Bozoma and Lael Saint John

    When was the last time you asked your child (or your parent) what they actually needed from you? In this candid Mother's Day conversation, our hosts Natalie Lizarraga and Rae Williams sit down with Bozoma Saint John and her daughter Lael to talk about everything they don't show you on TV: how Lael greenlit Boz’s decision to be on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, why it’s important to send the ladder back down to bring others up, the IVF journey audiences watched unfold on camera, and how this mother-daughter duo built a relationship rooted in trust and negotiated hugs. Plus, both Boz and Lael answer our rapid-fire questions on grief, strength, intuition, and what they'd tell their younger selves. Happy Mother's Day to every woman raising the next generation of badasses. EPISODE CREDITS...

    Winning gold and uplifting our youth | Angel McCoughtry

    This week, Rae and Natalie sit down with WNBA legend, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and changemaker Angel McCoughtry for a powerful conversation about winning on and off the court. Angel reflects on growing up as the only girl playing basketball in Baltimore, discovering the WNBA, and how visibility gave her the confidence to dream bigger. She also shares why so many girls leave sports too early, why access and mentorship matter, and how women’s sports are finally getting the attention they’ve always deserved. Angel opens up about the mental health challenges athletes face after retirement, the loss of identity that can come when the game ends, and why more support is needed for life after sport. From uplifting youth to speaking up for the next generation, this episode is a reminder that sports can change lives far beyond the scoreboard. EPISODE CREDITS...

    The biggest lie we tell mothers | Neha Ruch

    What if stepping away from your career wasn’t falling behind, but actually getting ahead? Motherhood hasn’t caught up to reality. Women are still pushed into extremes: all in at work or all in at home, with very little space in between. In this episode of Broadlines, Natalie and Rae sit down with Neha Ruch, author of The Power Pause, to challenge everything we’ve been told about ambition, motherhood, and success. The system wasn’t built to support women, and yet women are still expected to make it work. 1 in 4 American women return to work just two weeks after giving birth and many don’t even qualify for paid leave. Neha offers a different perspective. A career pause isn’t a setback, it’s a strategic chapter. EPISODE CREDITS...

    Ambition requires discomfort | Emma Grede

    This conversation is about ambition and what it really costs. Rae and Natalie sit down with serial entrepreneur, co-founder and CEO of Good American, and founding partner of Skims, Emma Grede, live from the FQ Lounge at SXSW. With the release of her new book Start With Yourself, Emma shares her no-BS approach to building success on your own terms. The reality? If you want more, you have to be willing to ask for it and risk being uncomfortable, misunderstood, or told no. She challenges the narrative we’ve been sold about balance, likability, and doing it all, replacing it with something more honest. Ambition requires trade-offs, and not everyone will be comfortable with how big you’re willing to go. Tune in. EPISODE CREDITS...
