    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.

Often called the "evil twin" of endometriosis, this condition affects a staggering 25-60% of women, yet remains shrouded in misinformation and diagnostic neglect. Dr. Corbett, a wellness professional with a doctorate in chiropractic and a master's in positive psychology, shares her own harrowing journey with adenomyosis, detailing the severe pain and debilitating heavy bleeding that were normalized and dismissed by multiple medical professionals. She recounts being presented with only two bleak options: a lifetime of powerful opioids or a hysterectomy. This candid conversation then takes a turn toward profound hope as Dr. Corbett reveals how a connection made through this very podcast led her to a life-changing, non-invasive treatment halfway across the world. She provides a fascinating education on High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), explaining how this precise technology ablates the problematic tissue without a single incision, offering a uterus-preserving solution that eliminated her chronic pain.  This episode is a crucial call to action for any woman who has been told her suffering is normal, arming listeners with the knowledge to advocate for better care and explore revolutionary treatments that exist beyond the standard Western medical playbook. If you or someone you love has ever been told that severe period pain is "just normal," this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast is essential listening.

    Ep. 191 - The Peptide Protocol: Healing Your Gut & Brain from the Inside Out with Kyal Van Der Leest

    Get ready to have your mind blown by one of the most exciting frontiers in health science. In this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, I'm sitting down with the incredibly knowledgeable Kyal Van Der Leest, an Australian Nutritionist and Naturopath who is truly pioneering the future of wellness.  If you've heard the term "peptides" buzzing around but aren't quite sure what they are or how they could revolutionize your health, especially during the hormonal shifts of menopause, this conversation is your essential guide. We dive deep into the fascinating world of peptides, explaining them not as foreign chemicals, but as the body's own innate messengers that speak its language fluently. Kyal masterfully breaks down how these powerful chains of amino acids act as targeted instructions for healing, regeneration, and repair in a way that traditional supplements and pharmaceuticals simply can't.  The conversation gets particularly illuminating as we explore the profound gut-brain connection and how a specific peptide can actually block zonulin—the very protein responsible for creating leaky gut—offering a revolutionary approach to sealing a permeable gut lining. We also discuss why these are often short-term, interventional tools designed to restore your body's foundation so you can thrive long after you've stopped taking them.  This is a masterclass in cutting-edge, holistic health that you won't want to miss.
