    To Girl Travel! How Morocco Changed How I Think About Midlife Friendship

    Episode #28: To Girl Travel! How Morocco Changed How I Think About Midlife Friendship Season 2 opens with a personal story: I went to Morocco because my stepmother needed a roommate. What I found changed how I think about friendship, connection, and who I am. Eleven days, a group of mostly strangers, and a country whose history I did not expect to fall in love with. In this episode, I talk about: Why making friends in midlife requires a different approach than it did when we were younger What happened when I traveled internationally alone for the first time at 64 The instant belonging that comes from shared identity and shared experience A spontaneous friendship strategy called speed dating that I have been using at home ever since What Adeline (80) and Iris (86) taught me about what is possible at this stage of life The heartbreaking and inspiring story of Jewish heritage in Morocco and the Muslim organization working to preserve it Resources Mentioned:  Mimouna Association Travel with the J! -- Jewish heritage tours through the Boca Raton JCC Rockin' Journeys -- Meet Pablo Duek!

    Midlife Metabolic Truth with Jacinda Shapiro, Part 2: The Practical

    In Part 2 of this two-part conversation, Jacinda Shapiro steps back from the science and gets into what it actually looks like to live a metabolically healthy life. From the myth of moderation to what your CGM is really telling you, to how she moved through menopause in six months, this is where the conversation gets actionable. In this episode, we talk about: Why "moderation" does not work when the foods in question are drivers of chronic disease The truth about CGMs: why your oatmeal is not the problem when blood sugar spikes after eating it How to navigate health change when your household is not on board What Lifestyle Medicine actually looks like in practice and why community matters How Jacinda moved through menopause in six months using a plant-based diet and daily soy Why high fat intake, including from nuts and seeds, can drive menopausal symptoms Her simple framework: fiber up, fat down Missed Part 1? Start with Episode 26, where we cover insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, the gut microbiome, statins, and why more medications have not flattened the curve on metabolic disease.

    Midlife Metabolic Truth with Jacinda Shapiro, Part 1: The Science

    Insulin resistance is not a sugar problem. It is a fat problem. In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, Dvora sits down with Nurse Jacinda Shapiro to get into the science behind what is driving metabolic disease in midlife women, and why most conventional medicine is still missing the mark. In this episode, we talk about: Why insulin resistance is caused by dietary fat accumulating in the liver, muscle, and pancreas, not by sugar Why pre-diabetes is far more serious than most people are told, including loss of up to 50% of beta cell function Why 80% of people living with pre-diabetes have no idea they have it How your gut microbiome regulates blood sugar, blood pressure, and neurotransmitters through the fiber you eat Why more medications have not flattened the curve on diabetes or heart disease How pharmaceutical companies use relative vs. absolute risk reduction to make drugs appear more effective than they are Part 2 drops May 19: Lifestyle Medicine, navigating an unsupportive household, what your CGM is really telling you, and how Jacinda moved through menopause in six months.

    I've Been Taking Care of You All Along

    Dvora didn't choose her audience through market research. She followed a thread for forty years without knowing she was following it -- from GYN nursing to the NICU to twenty-five years as a School Nurse -- and one day looked back and could see the whole line. In Part 3 of A Bridge, she traces the career arc that led her to women in midlife, the community post that made this work feel true, and what she learned by finally leaning into the territory she almost skipped. In this episode, we talk about: The forty-year thread Dvora followed without knowing -- from GYN to antepartum to NICU to school nursing to women 50+ Why being told to "choose a niche" felt like shrinking -- and what changed her mind The Facebook post she wrote to her Lamorinda community that made this work feel true, not strategic Why she almost skipped menopause entirely -- and the doctor's line that stopped her "Menopause is not just one day. It's forever. The rest of your life." Nothing was wasted. Not one year of it.

    I Was the Last to Know

    Episode 23: I Was the Last One to Know (A Bridge, Part 2) In 2012, recovering from back surgery on her therapist's couch, Dvora was asked a question she wasn't prepared for -- and her answer told her everything about what had been getting in her way. In this solo episode, she traces the story from that couch to a seventeen-course sushi dinner, and asks the question she wants every woman in midlife to sit with: what is the story you've been living inside for so long you stopped noticing it was a story? In this episode, we talk about: The question Dvora's therapist asked in 2012 -- and the answer that came out before she could think about it The Yiddish word balabusta, and what it means to confuse a role with an identity Why clinging to a blueprint keeps you from being present in the actual experience The sushi dinner where Dvora didn't get her own way -- and got something better How what's getting in the way is almost never the circumstances or other people The only first step: seeing the story About Dvora Citron:Dvora Citron is a Registered Nurse, National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, and Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner.

  7. The Price of Beginning

    The Price of Beginning

    There's a Friday that looked like every other Friday -- until it didn't. In this solo episode, Dvora Citron tells the story of a fentanyl overdose she responded to as a school nurse, and what it revealed about twenty-five years of showing up scared and doing it anyway. This is Part 1 of a four-part solo bridge series leading up to something she's been building for a long time. In this episode, we talk about: - The school nurse story that captures what it means to be fully in your role -- not performing it- What imposter syndrome actually feels like when you're the only healthcare provider in the building- Why waiting to feel ready is the one thing guaranteed to keep you stuck- The moment Dvora realized she had become the person the team turned to in a crisis- What it looked like to start this podcast without a plan, a production team, or a roadmap- The one shift that changes everything: "You don't get ready and then begin. You begin, and that's how you get ready." About Dvora Citron:Dvora Citron is a Registered Nurse, National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, and Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner. After a 40 year nursing career, twenty-five years as a school nurse,  she now helps women 50 and older create the health, confidence, and vitality they want -- through science, story, support, and soul.

    Nothing Is Wasted: Reinvention and Confidence with Annette Naif

    Episode 21: Nothing Is Wasted: Reinvention and Confidence with Annette Naif Annette Naif has spent nearly four decades producing events that mark the biggest moments in people's lives. In this conversation, she and Dvora explore what a nonlinear career path really teaches you, why confidence is something you practice rather than possess, and what it looks like to advocate for yourself in healthcare when the people around you are not listening. In this episode, we talk about: How decades of experience across film, television, legal work, and corporate operations built the foundation for Annette's event business, even when none of it felt connected at the time Why Annette started her company at 47, what it cost her to underprice herself early on, and how she found her footing by surrounding herself with people who reflected her value back to her The importance of being in rooms with other women who are aging with confidence and vitality, and why that kind of community is a health practice, not just a social one What Annette did when she woke up at 2 a.m. with excruciating calf pain, why she pushed back when a medical professional was ready to send her home, and what women need to understand about self-advocacy How Annette coaches aspiring event planners through her Dreams to Dollars Masterclass, and what she sees holding women back from trusting the dream they have been carrying About Annette Naif:Annette Naif is the founder of Naif Productions, a strategic event planning, design, and production firm based in New York City. She has produced over 100 million dollars in events for Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, and private clients worldwide. She teaches event production at NYU, hosts the podcast "A Turn of Events," and coaches aspiring event planners through her Dreams to Dollars Masterclass.
