    Wine, Wisdom and Wit Episode 10, No Plan Just Pour

    Net and Nettie walk into the studio with no prep, no research, no direction...just a couple of gals with their wine, marginal wisdom, and questionable wit! What starts with a simple $8 Tuesday night wine turns into a rapid fire mix of fun and intriguing observations unfiltered, from overpowering laundry detergent scents and why utility companies advertise to travel quirks, public restroom truths, and the kind of integrity that matters when no one is watching. It is spontaneous, honest, a little chaotic, and very on brand for this friendship. Cheers!

    Wine Wisdom and Wit Ep 8 Is HRT for Me? A Real Talk Guide to Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men and Women with guest Denise Pollard

    This episode could change your life!  In this eye opening pour of Wine Wisdom and Wit, Net and Nettie sit down with guest Denise Pollard, a certified nurse practitioner, pharmaceutical chemist, and founder of Restore You in Omaha, to talk about hormone replacement therapy. Men and women will learn what do hormones actually do, why natural bioidentical hormones are different from synthetic ones, and how HRT can help with sleep, muscle strength, mood, anxiety, hot flashes, brain fog, libido, and even long term heart and bone health. Denise explains who might be a good candidate, what symptoms to watch for in both women and men, how hormone imbalances can show up at many ages, and why age alone should not define how you feel. She also addresses common fears about cancer, the history of the 2002 Women’s Health Initiative study, the recent removal of the black box warning, and what that really means. The conversation walks through lab work, pellets, creams, costs, insurance realities, and erectile dysfunction in a clear and hopeful way. If you have ever wondered whether hormones could help you feel like yourself again, this episode will give you the information and courage to ask better questions and take control of your health! Cheers to your hormonal health! Denise Pollard: https://restore-you.com/?page_id=181BR Cohn wine: https://www.brcohn.com/

    Wine Wisdom and Wit Ep 6 Difficult Family Members

    In this pour of Wine, Wisdom and Wit, Net and Nettie dive into a topic that bubbles up for just about every family during the holidays. Difficult family members. From the mildly annoying uncle who shows up empty handed to the in-laws who can change the tone of a room just by walking into it, we unpack the full range of family dynamics. Joining us is our first ever guest, Mark Miller, a licensed therapist and Clinical Director for Spence Counseling. Mark brings decades of experience and a faith-based approach to understanding conflict, boundaries, and the tough questions we often avoid. Together we explore why some relatives push our buttons, how to recognize when the issue is ours or theirs, and when it is time to set healthy limits for the sake of peace. Through real listener questions, honest conversation, and Mark’s practical guidance, this episode offers clarity, hope, and maybe even a little healing before the next family gathering. Pour a glass, settle in, and join us as we look at how to handle the people we love, the people we tolerate, and the people God reminds us we have to love anyway. Ready for another sip of wisdom?
