    Skin Treatments for Postmenopausal Women - #146

    You are being marketed to. Aggressively. And the people doing it know exactly when to come for you: when your skin starts changing, when the products that worked for years suddenly stop working, when you catch yourself in a mirror and think, what is happening to my face. That moment of vulnerability is worth billions of dollars to the aesthetics industry. And most of what they're selling you is not backed by clinical evidence. Here's what's actually happening. When estrogen drops during menopause, your skin loses collagen at a rate of about 2.1% per year, and in the first five years after menopause alone, you can lose up to 30% of your skin's collagen. No serum fixes that. No $300 peptide cream fixes that. In this episode, I'm getting you straight answers. I brought in the person I would send my own clients to, and he's going to walk you through every major in-office skin treatment being marketed to midlife women right now. Lasers, peels, injectables, microneedling, red light, and exosomes, all of it. What actually works, what's overhyped, what's a waste of money, and what to ask before you hand over your credit card to anyone. My guest is Dr. Omer Ibrahim, MD, a board-certified, fellowship-trained dermatologist. His fellowship in cosmetic, laser, and dermatologic surgery was completed with clinical faculty from Harvard, Yale, and Brown. He did his residency at Cleveland Clinic, where he served as Chief Resident. He's a published researcher, adjunct faculty at Cleveland Clinic, and a member of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery. He specializes in every major laser procedure and the full range of injectables, and he has no financial stake in selling you any particular device or product. There is no room for bias here. You deserve an action plan that actually works.

    The Postmenopause Wardrobe Reset - #145

    Something shifts in midlife that nobody talks about in the fashion conversation. It's not just that your body changes, though it does. It's that your entire life changes. Menopause. Divorce. Career transitions. Kids leaving. And suddenly the clothes that defined you for twenty-plus years don't fit, not just physically, but emotionally. Most women respond by either ignoring their wardrobe entirely or going on a shopping spree that doesn't actually solve anything. Today's guest believes there is a better way. Gayle Perry is one of New York City's most sought-after personal stylists and the force behind @gaylestyle, where nearly half a million followers come for exactly what she delivers: style that heals, empowers, and makes you feel like the most confident version of yourself, regardless of your body, your budget, or your age. Her philosophy is called The Wellness of Style, and once you hear it, you will never think about getting dressed the same way again. This episode is for every woman who has looked in her closet and felt like none of it belongs to her anymore. In this episode: — How to dress the body and the life you have right now, not the one you had at 40 — Why postmenopause is the most liberating style moment of your life if you approach it right — How to shop with intention instead of impulse — Dressing for different body shapes, comfort, and reclaiming your style — Building a wardrobe that reflects who you are becoming, not who you used to be Find Gayle Perry: IG: @gaylestyle Website: https://gaylestyle.squarespace.com/ Stay connected with JFW: Book your 60-minute Menopause Care Consultation: https://www.jillfooswellness.com/menopause-care-consult-page Follow on Instagram: @jillfooswellness Follow on Facebook: @jillfooswellness Follow on YouTube: @jillfooswellness Grab discounts on my favorite menopause wellness products: https://www.jillfooswellness.com/health-products Enjoy 20% savings and free shipping at Fullscript for your favorite supplements by leading brands: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/jillfooswellness/store-start Subscribe to the JFW newsletter at www.jillfooswellness.com and receive your FREE Guide on How To Create Your Menopause Health Equation Ebook.

    Welcome to Afterpause with Jill Foos — the menopause podcast built for women who are done waiting for answers and ready to take action. In this first episode, I'm sharing why I changed the name of my podcast, what Afterpause means and why it matters, and exactly what this show is going to do for you every single week. This isn't another menopause awareness podcast. It's a roadmap — built specifically for women navigating postmenopause who want to know what to do next, not just what's happening to them.

Every episode features evidence-based conversations with leading physicians and experts in women's health and lifestyle, giving you the clarity, confidence, and action steps to take ownership of the next 20 to 30 years of your life.

    Heart Disease and Menopause with Dr. Jayne Morgan - #143

    Heart disease is the number one killer of women. Not breast cancer. Not ovarian cancer. Heart disease. And yet most women — and many of their doctors — still don't recognize it in time. Why? Because heart disease in women doesn't look the way we've been taught. No crushing chest pain. No dramatic collapse. Instead: fatigue, jaw pain, nausea, GI upset. Symptoms so commonly dismissed as anxiety or perimenopause that women leave emergency rooms undiagnosed, undertreated, and in danger. Here's what I've learned after 29 years as a hockey mom: every year I hear about another hockey mom who died from a heart attack. Women in their 50s. Some healthy, some not. The message from their families is always the same — "it was out of nowhere" or "it was sudden." But after interviewing some of the country's best preventive cardiologists, I know the truth: heart attacks don't just show up. They've been brewing for years. No one looked. That changes today. Dr. Jayne Morgan is one of the country's leading cardiologists and a fierce advocate for women's cardiovascular health. As Vice President of Medical Affairs at Hello Heart, she has made it her life's mission to change the trajectory of women's heart health — and she is here to tell you exactly what to watch for, what to ask your doctor, and what to do right now to protect your heart through menopause and beyond. In this episode we cover: — Why heart disease is dramatically underdiagnosed in women — How menopause accelerates cardiovascular risk and why the transition window matters — The symptoms of heart disease in women that are routinely missed or dismissed — What a heart-healthy lifestyle actually looks like for postmenopausal women — The tests and screenings every woman over 40 needs to ask for — Why your risk profile changes after your last period — and what to do about it This is the conversation that could save your life. Share it with every woman you know.

    NAD+ and Menopause: The Molecule That Could Change How You Age - 141

    NAD+ is one of the most critical molecules in your body — essential for energy production, DNA repair, brain function, metabolism, and healthy aging. And after menopause, your levels drop significantly. The result is fatigue that sleep doesn't fix, brain fog that won't lift, and a body that stopped responding the way it used to. But here is what most women — and most doctors — don't know: supplementing without testing is guesswork. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jin-Xiong She, founder of Jinfiniti Precision Medicine and one of the world's leading NAD+ researchers, to talk about why intracellular NAD+ testing is the only way to know where your levels actually are — and what to do about it. About Dr. Jin-Xiong She: Dr. Jin-Xiong She is the founder and CEO of Jinfiniti Precision Medicine and a Distinguished Research Professor at Augusta University. He has authored more than 400 peer-reviewed scientific publications, secured over $100 million in research funding, and holds multiple patents in precision medicine and metabolic health. His work on intracellular NAD+ testing has made him one of the most important voices in longevity and cellular health science today. In this episode: Why NAD+ declines so dramatically after menopause What low NAD+ actually feels like in your body The difference between intracellular testing and guessing NR versus NMN — what the science actually says How to dose correctly based on your results Why most women are supplementing wrong This is not another supplement conversation. This is precision medicine for midlife women.

    Menopause Is Coming for the Workplace - #140

    Most workplaces are completely unprepared for what happens when their most experienced women hit menopause, and the cost is enormous. In this episode of the Health Trip Podcast, I sit down with Kim Hart and April Haberman, co-founders of MiDOViA and certified health coaches, to talk about one of the most overlooked issues in today's workforce: midlife women navigating menopause at the height of their careers. We cover why women are quietly leaving the workforce during their most valuable professional years, the real career impact of unmanaged menopause symptoms, what forward-thinking companies are doing differently, and what an ideal workplace environment for midlife women actually looks like. And whether you're a corporate executive, a woman re-entering the workforce, or building something new in midlife, this conversation is for you. In this episode, we cover: Why menopause and peak career performance collide The economic cost of losing midlife women from the workforce What organizations can do right now to change the conversation How to be the one who starts the conversation where you work Learn more about Midovia: Website: https://www.midovia.com/ IG: @mymidovia FB: @MiDOViA LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/midovia/posts/?feedView=all Stay connected with JFW: Book your 60-minute Menopause Care Consultation: https://calendly.com/jillfooswellness/menopause-care-consult Follow on Instagram: @jillfooswellness Follow on Facebook: @jillfooswellness Follow on YouTube: @jillfooswellness Grab discounts on wellness products: https://www.jillfooswellness.com/health-products Enjoy 20% savings and free shipping at Fullscript for your favorite supplements by leading brands: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/jillfooswellness/store-start Subscribe to the JFW newsletter at www.jillfooswellness.com and receive your FREE Guide on How To Create Your Menopause Health Equation Ebook.

    Menopause Through a Root Cause Lens - #139

    Most women enter menopause expecting hot flashes and sleep disruption. What nobody tells you is that menopause is also a window of increased vulnerability to some of the most significant disease states of your lifetime — cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, autoimmune conditions, cognitive decline, osteoporosis, and cancer. Menopause doesn't cause all of these. But it creates the biological conditions that accelerate them in women who already have underlying vulnerabilities, most of which have been building for decades, completely undetected. Here's what I've come to believe after years in this space, and from navigating menopause myself: the women who fare best aren't just asking what I'm feeling, they're asking why. That question is the entire foundation of today's guest's practice. Dr. Derek Guillory is a board-certified emergency medicine physician, one of the first certified functional medicine practitioners in Texas, and founder of Root Causes Medicine in San Antonio, a practice built around the one question most conventional doctors never answer: Why am I sick? We cover: Why menopause accelerates disease in women with underlying vulnerabilities What inflammation has to do with your hormonal transition How to shift from symptom management to true prevention What functional medicine looks for that conventional medicine misses How to advocate for yourself in a healthcare system not built for midlife women If you've ever felt dismissed, confused, or like something deeper is going on — this episode is for you.

    The Colon Cancer and Menopause Connection - #138

    Most women in menopause are focused on the wrong cancer. Colorectal cancer is now the number one cause of cancer death in adults under 55, and rates are rising 3% every year in people aged 20 to 49. For midlife women, the risk window is right now. And almost nobody is connecting these dots. In this episode, Dr. Faris Murad, board-certified gastroenterologist, Mayo Clinic-trained, and founder of Santé Integrated Health & Wellness on Chicago's North Shore, discusses one of the most important conversations in the menopause space that nobody is having. What menopause actually does to your gut, your colon, and your microbiome. Why your GI symptoms since perimenopause started are not in your head. What a polyp actually is and what it means when one is found. Why the prep is no longer the excuse it used to be. And the data point that will genuinely stop you — the Women's Health Initiative found a 37% reduction in colorectal cancer risk among women on combined hormone therapy. This benefit is rarely part of the HRT conversation. It should be. This is the episode that makes you schedule the screening you've been putting off.
