    Ep. 201 - Divine Wealth with Francesca Rea

    In this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely welcomes back for another groundbreaking chat, her gal pal and revolutionary wealth advisor, Francesca Rea CFP.  For any woman who has ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or secretly intimidated by her finances, this conversation offers a powerful and compassionate new lens on building genuine wealth. Francesca unfolds her own evolution from financial uncertainty to becoming a leading advisor and author, illustrating how her breakthrough came not from relentless striving, but from a fundamental shift in perspective. She dismantles the silence surrounding money, showing that our most stubborn financial hurdles are frequently built on outdated narratives, not unchangeable facts. This dialogue explores the core components of true abundance—mindset, literacy, and strategy—and how they work together to forge unshakeable confidence and tangible net worth. Together, Fiona and Francesca illuminate a more holistic path to prosperity. They delve into: The Stories We Inherit: How unexamined beliefs about money, absorbed over a lifetime, can dictate your financial landscape, and the first steps to reclaiming that narrative. The Paradox of Slow: Why Francesca's conscious choice to de-celerate, focus, and shed external expectations resulted in her income multiplying, challenging the myth that more effort always equals more gain. Energy and Architecture: The essential balance between the receptive, creative flow of feminine energy and the supportive, structural framework of masculine planning—and how to cultivate both within your financial practice. From Passenger to Pilot: How to transition from feeling managed by your money to actively commanding it, transforming financial planning from a chore into a profound act of self-advocacy and freedom. At its heart, this discussion provides a relatable, step-by-step journey from financial uncertainty to empowered ownership.  Francesca details the philosophy behind her new book, Divine Wealth, and its practical framework, emphasizing the transformative roles of clarity, purpose, and celebration. Whether you're rebuilding, expanding, or just beginning, this episode is a vital companion for any woman ready to design a prosperous life defined by her own values and vision.

    Ep. 200 - What's Eating You? The Parasite Primer with Kim Rogers

    In this eye-opening and often funny episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely sits down with Kim Rogers, famously known as the "Worm Queen", having gone viral on Tiktok. For anyone who has struggled with "mystery" symptoms, chronic pain, or felt abandoned by Western medicine, this conversation offers a startling and transformative perspective on what might really be going on inside your body. Kim Rogers shares her harrowing journey from being a "Western medicine refugee" with two healthcare degrees to nearly dying from Stage 4 endometriosis and 13 surgeries. She cuts through the taboo surrounding parasites, explaining how her own health crisis was finally resolved not by more surgery, but by addressing a massive, unseen parasitic load. This episode dives deep into the "trifecta" of environmental illness—parasites, mold, and Lyme disease—and why these issues are often the hidden drivers behind autoimmune labels and chronic exhaustion. Together, Fiona and Kim unpack the uncomfortable reality that parasites are not just a "third-world problem." They discuss: The Unseen Epidemic: Why an estimated 60 to 300 million Americans are likely harboring parasites from common sources like pets, sushi, undercooked meat, and even tap water. The Internal Host Experience: How parasites act as "energetic vampires," manipulating your cravings for sugar and disrupting your sleep and mood by consuming your serotonin. The Hormone Link: Why parasitic activity often peaks during the full moon, leading to the "crazy" symptoms and "itchy" flares many women experience but can't explain . The Mold and Lyme Connection: How parasites can act as "biofilm houses" for mold spores and Lyme bacteria, making it nearly impossible to heal from one without addressing the other . Most importantly, this dialogue provides a clear, actionable pathway to reclaiming your health sovereignty. Kim explains the mechanics of her "Purify" protocol, highlighting the crucial role of binders—like charcoal and cinnamon—to safely sweep toxins out of the body and prevent the dreaded "die-off" symptoms. Whether you are a "flusher," a "looker," or a "digger," this episode is an essential guide for anyone ready to stop being a host and start feeling like themselves again.

    Ep. 198 - Navigating ADHD and Menopause with Shanna Pearson

    In this eye opening episode of Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely sits down with Shanna Pearson, a world-renowned expert on adult ADHD with over 26 years of experience. For the woman who feels like the wheels are suddenly coming off the bus in midlife, this conversation is the explanation you've been searching for. Shanna cuts through the noise with a compassionate yet honest perspective. She explains why ADHD is not a superpower for many women who have been silently struggling, but a very manageable reality that requires specific tools—tools that often stop working during the hormonal upheaval of perimenopause. The episode dives deep into the crucial link between declining estrogen and plummeting dopamine, revealing why previously hidden ADHD symptoms can erupt and overwhelm at this life stage. Together, Fiona and Shanna unpack the heartbreaking cycle of misdiagnosis, where women are frequently labeled with anxiety or depression, given the wrong medications, and left feeling hopeless as their core challenges go unaddressed. Shanna provides a masterclass on the internal experience of ADHD, from the exhaustive daily masking and paralyzing overwhelm to the emotional intensity that stems from a brain that cannot compartmentalize. Most importantly, this dialogue offers a powerful pathway forward. Shanna shares actionable insights on mood scheduling, reframing self-compassion, and finding the right "brush for your curly hair"—the specific strategies that can work with your unique brain wiring. This is an essential listen for any woman who has ever asked, "Why can't I just…?" or felt profoundly misunderstood by the world and herself.

    Ep. 197 - The Menobesties Roundtable: Navigating the Wilds of Perimenopause, HRT & Advocacy

    In this lively and unfiltered gathering, Dr. Fiona Lovely is joined by her beloved "Meno Besties," hormone specialist Karen Martel and longevity expert Zora Benhamou. This is a candid conversation between three leading voices who've been in the menopause advocacy space long before it was trending. They tackle the frustrating realities women still face, from doctors dismissing requests for hormone testing to the enduring stigma around the word "menopause" itself. The discussion delves into the critical need for education and self-advocacy, emphasizing that despite increased awareness, a shockingly low percentage of women are actually on hormone therapy. Fiona, Karen, and Zora break down the early, subtle signs of perimenopause that often go unrecognized and explain the rollercoaster of "wonky periods." They also provide crucial insights into the practicalities of hormone therapy, addressing why some women don't feel better initially, the importance of dosage adjustments, and why partnering closely with your prescriber is non-negotiable. The conversation takes a fascinating turn into how past trauma and nervous system health may influence one's response to HRT, highlighting the profound mind-body connection during this transition. This episode is a masterclass in navigating midlife health with clarity, humor, and the supportive solidarity of friends who truly get it.

    Ep. 196 - Naturopathic Medicine for Breast Cancer with Dr. Laura James

    In this compelling conversation on this week's episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely welcomes naturopathic oncologist Dr. Laura James to pull back the curtain on the breast cancer journey. They dive deep into what it truly means to receive a breast cancer diagnosis and navigate what Dr. James candidly terms "the breast cancer industrial complex." This discussion moves far beyond simplistic narratives to explore the profound importance of personalized, integrative care that addresses the whole person—not just the tumor. Dr. James demystifies complex terminology, explaining the critical differences between receptor statuses and what a genetic link really means for risk. She outlines the distinct phases of treatment and emphasizes why having an informed advocate, like a naturopathic oncologist, can be transformative in helping women understand their options and ask the right questions. The conversation takes an honest look at the often-overlooked emotional and systemic realities, including the burden of shame, the critical need for a "buddy system," and the stark limitations of protocol-driven, siloed medicine. Perhaps most impactful is their exploration of life after treatment, including the controversial yet vital discussion around hormone replacement therapy for survivors. Dr. James provides a nuanced perspective on weighing quality of life and long-term health risks, advocating for women's right to make fully informed decisions for their bodies and their futures. This episode is an empowering resource for anyone touched by breast cancer, offering clarity, compassion, and a bold new framework for healing.

    Ep. 194 - Common Menopause Symptoms Relieved with Dr. Elizabeth Yurth

    In an era where peptides are dominating wellness conversations, it can be challenging to separate groundbreaking information from mere buzz.  In this educational episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely sits down with the esteemed Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, a specialist in regenerative and cellular medicine, to provide a masterclass on these powerful signaling molecules and how they can help at menopause. The conversation dives deep into the critical concept that our endogenous peptide levels, much like our hormones, decline with age. This foundational understanding frames peptide therapy not as a futuristic trend, but as a potential method for replenishing what our bodies are naturally losing. Listeners will gain invaluable insight into specific peptides and their applications. Dr. Yurth details how growth hormone secretagogues can support cellular repair and improve sleep quality, and why thymic peptides are vital for a well-educated immune system, especially as we age.  She also explores the significant repair benefits of peptides like BPC-157 and Thymosin Beta-4 for gut and joint health. Furthermore, the discussion reframes the conversation around GLP-1 agonists, moving beyond weight loss to highlight their promising role in cognitive, cardiac, and metabolic health when used at appropriate doses. Throughout the episode, Dr. Yurth emphasizes that peptides are a sophisticated tool that works best on a solid foundation of optimized hormones, quality sleep, and proper nutrition. She also provides crucial guidance on the importance of working with a thoroughly trained clinician and sourcing peptides from reputable compounding pharmacies to ensure safety and efficacy.  This is an essential listen for anyone looking to understand the true therapeutic potential and responsible application of peptides.
