    Finding Hope When Life is Not Okay with Cyndie Spiegel of Microjoys

    Seventy million Americans are reeling from the election results this week. I am one of them. I have cycled through so many negative emotions: shock, anger, rage, fear, sorrow. Relistening to my 2023 interview with Cyndie Spiegel, author of “Microjoys: Finding Hope (Especially) When Life is Not Okay,” reminded me that we can hold grief in one hand and joy in another. Sitting quietly in the sun, immersing myself once again in this conversation, reminded me that we can look at the world with hopeful eyes even when life feels overwhelming and hard. Need a warm hug?

    After the attacks of October 7, 2023, Zibby Owens, the bestselling author, podcaster, publisher, and book influencer reached out to Jewish writers and advocates and asked them to contribute essays to an anthology, “On Being Jewish Now.” In the essay collection, 75 writers share heartfelt reflections that reveal the Jewish experience across a range of snapshots—faith, family, food, and a shared history of both joy and trauma stretching across millennia. In this powerful and moving episode, host Katie Fogarty is joined by Zibby Owens and two essay contributors, authors Dara Levan (It Could be Worse) and Joanna Rakoff (My Salinger Year). Each shares the backstory behind their essay and the complexities of being Jewish in a post-October 7th world.

    Vaginal Estrogen + The Fight to Remove Misleading FDA Warnings on Life-Saving Local Estrogen Products

    Do you use vaginal estrogen? Recommended by top menopause specialists, backed by multiple studies, vaginal estrogen is proven to work to prevent or treat the Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM). GSM is incredibly common and includes bladder leaks, vaginal dryness, painful sex, and frequent UTIs, which can be deadly as we age. But many women are scared of vaginal estrogen due to an outdated and misleading FDA-mandated warning label that treats local vaginal estrogen with the same broad brush as systemic estrogen. In this episode, Katie connects with three women’s health leaders behind a new campaign called “Unboxing Menopause” which calls for the FDA to update or remove this misleading warning label. Top urologists Drs. Kelly Casperson and Rachel Rubin give us an explainer on how vaginal estrogen prevents the tissue decline and infections that kill too many elderly women and costs the economy billions. Let’s Talk Menopause co-founder Donna Klassen loops us in on the goals of the campaign and how you can help move this critical women’s health initiative forward.

    Time To Talk About How You Really Feel with Burnout Pro Dr. Jessi Gold

    For Dr. Jessi Gold, everything was absolutely fine—until it suddenly wasn’t. As a practicing psychiatrist and assistant professor, Dr. Gold was used to being constantly busy. Dr. Gold’s always-on, never say no approach to caregiving led to extreme burnout and the need to seek treatment for her own mental health. Now, Dr. Gold is out with a brand new book, “How Do You Feel?” that is part memoir, part mental health manual, and 100 percent designed to stave off burnout, overwhelm and guide people in caregiving roles to protect their mental health. We explore burnout versus full-blown depression, the signs of impending burnout, when DIY self-care at home is the right move, and when it’s time to seek professional treatment. Plus, we uncover the high costs of perfectionism and the pursuit of gold stars, and get into strategies for caring for yourself while caregiving for others.  SHOW NOTES + TRANSCRIPT acertainagepod.com FOLLOW A CERTAIN AGE: Instagram Facebook LinkedIn GET INBOX INSPO: Sign up for our newsletter AGE BOLDLY We share new episodes, giveaways, links we love, and midlife resources Learn more about your ad choices.
