    Menopause and Mental Health: Breaking the Sexuality Silence with Dr. Juliana Hauser

    Are we finally ready to talk about mental health and menopause in the same sentence?  Dr. Juliana Hauser joins us for a bold, unfiltered conversation that challenges the stigma surrounding women's mental health, especially during perimenopause and menopause. This episode explores why it's time to move beyond silence and make mental well-being a headline issue. From the intersection of hormones, identity, and emotional health to the mind-body connection and the sexual confidence of living authentically, sensually, and sexually...we're turning a topic often seen as taboo into an open conversation that goes far beyond the bedroom.  Whether you're navigating menopause, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about reclaiming your sensuality and voice, this episode is a permission slip to embrace your truth, without shame.

    Depolarize for Peace with guest James Twyman

    What if seven simple words could change the way we connect with others on the path to peace? In this powerful episode of HIListically Speaking, Hilary Russo sits down with James Twyman, a New York Times Best-Selling Author (The Moses Code), spiritual teacher, and the “Peace Troubadour” to explore how one profound phrase.  “I Don’t Know, Maybe, I Love You.” Now the title of his latest book, this open-hearted reply sparked a movement towards healing our global village and even the most divided, intimate relationships. From confronting polarization in today’s world to embracing curiosity over certainty, James, who is also an Episcopal Priest and founder of the Namaste Village spiritual community in Mexico, shares personal stories, spiritual insights, and his mission to De-Polarize a culture stuck in conflict. Together, we discuss the importance of compassion, the courage to engage with opposing perspectives, and the magic that happens when we prioritize love over being right.

    It’s not often you meet a 96-year-old who is still working hard to make the world a better place. But for Ben Lesser, a Holocaust survivor who lived through the atrocities of the Krakow ghettos and concentration camps, silence is not an option.
