    Why Dancing Might Be the Most Underrated Longevity Habit

    What if one of the most powerful longevity habits isn’t a supplement, workout protocol, or biohack — but dancing? In this episode of the Livelong Podcast, we talk with Kate Wallich, founder of Dance Church, about why joyful movement may be one of the most sustainable ways to support long-term health. Dance Church began as an experiment in making dance accessible to everyone — not just trained dancers. Today, it has grown into a global movement community where people of all ages come together to move, sweat, and reconnect with their bodies. We explore the science behind dance and longevity, including how rhythm, coordination, and social connection can benefit brain health, cardiovascular fitness, and emotional well-being. If you’re looking for a form of movement you’ll actually want to keep doing for decades, this conversation may change how you think about exercise. What You'll Learn ✅ What Dance Church is and how it started ✅ Why dance may support brain health and cognitive longevity ✅ The connection between rhythm, coordination, and neuroplasticity ✅ Why joyful movement improves long-term exercise adherence ✅ How social connection influences health and lifespan ✅ Why dance may be one of the most sustainable forms of movement

    What Traditional Medicine Gets Wrong About Women’s Longevity

    What is traditional medicine missing for women who want proactive longevity care? In this episode of the LiveLong Podcast, host Rachel Lehmann-Haupt talks with Dr. Krista Ramonas, a double board-certified physician and surgeon and founder of LabXMD, a San Francisco concierge practice focused exclusively on female longevity. Together, they unpack the real gaps in women’s healthcare—and what women can do right now inside the traditional system to get better outcomes. In this conversation, you’ll hear:  ✅  Why medicine has historically been built on data from the “70kg white male”—and how that skews everything for women (from vital signs to lab ranges)  ✅  The shift from “evidence-based” to evidence-informed medicine so women can make decisions now  ✅  The biggest barrier in traditional care: time (and why fragmentation hits women hardest)  ✅  The long-term cost of missed care in midlife—and Dr. Ramonas’ headline: dementia  ✅  Why the perimenopause transition can trigger accelerated brain aging, and how estrogen fits into the conversation  ✅  What’s overhyped in longevity right now: biologic age testing (and why it’s “too much too soon” clinically)  ✅  The testing priorities Dr. Ramonas wants women to focus on first—like cancer genetic testing (BRCA) before “inflammaging” scores  ✅  What proactive care looks like without concierge medicine: be your own activist  ✅  Dr. Ramonas’ personal longevity shifts: CGM insights, cutting back alcohol, moving exercise outdoors, reclaiming agency—and why she ditched the white coat for “white leather” to reduce distance in the doctor-patient relationship This episode is a clear-eyed, empowering look at women’s longevity: less hype, more foundations, and a better partnership with your clinicians.

    The End of Sick Care: How AI Is Rewriting Medicine

    Healthcare is undergoing one of the biggest transformations in modern history. In this episode of the Livelong Podcast, Rachel Lehmann-Haupt speaks with Dr. Hillary Lin, a Stanford-trained physician, entrepreneur, and co-founder of CareCore, about how AI, personalized medicine, and new care models are reshaping the future of health.

We also explore the promises and risks of AI in healthcare, the difference between longevity hype and real science, and what patients should understand as medicine moves into a new era. What You’ll Learn:  ✅ Why healthcare is shifting from reactive medicine to longevity care  ✅ How AI may transform personalized medicine  ✅ What infrastructure is needed to scale longevity healthcare  ✅ The difference between longevity hype and evidence-based medicine  ✅ How clinicians and patients can navigate the next era of healthcare If you’re curious about where healthcare is heading — and how it may change the way we live and age — this conversation offers a fascinating look at the future.

    The Midlife Reality That No Women Prepared For

    So many women hit midlife and feel like something is “off.”  Their moods go up and down, sleep shifts, and energy levels decrease. And when they try to get answers, often they’re dismissed or told everything is normal. In this episode of the Livelong Podcast, Dr. Jessica Shepherd — board-certified OB-GYN, menopause expert, Chief Medical Officer at Hers, and author of Generation M — joins Rachel Lehmann-Haupt in a conversation about why women lose trust in their bodies, and what’s actually happening during perimenopause and menopause. We talk about the real connection between hormones, brain health, and emotional changes — and why so many women are taught to override their instincts instead of listening to them. This conversation is about reclaiming your voice, understanding your body, and knowing when to push back. Because you’re not crazy — you just haven’t been given the full picture. What You’ll Learn  ✅Why women stop trusting their bodies in midlife  ✅ The emotional and neurological impact of menopause  ✅ What’s often dismissed — but shouldn’t be  ✅ The gap in care for women, especially women of color  ✅ How to advocate for yourself in the healthcare system  ✅ Why community is critical for long-term health

    Why Your Workouts Stopped Working—and What to do Instead

    Why are we still putting women in this small box and just shrinking and ‘pinking’ male protocols?” With the Livelong Women’s Health Summit in two weeks, we’re introducing you to some of our amazing experts. Dr. Stacy Sims, an exercise physiologist, nutrition scientist, and author, joined Livelong’s Tiffany Nieslanik on a Q&A call in the Women’s Health Circle group to explore why the fitness advice you’ve been following for your entire life is built on male bodies. The advice works… but only until our hormones don’t. They explore: ✅ When hormone shifts really begin ✅ Why your strength just disappeared overnight ✅ When long cardio and light weights stop cutting it ✅ What training moves the needle at what age ✅ Where hormone therapy helps—and where it gets oversold ✅ Why do you see strength training as a chore? ✅ The under-eating problem, GLP-1s, and chasing a smaller body Diving deep into important topics for functional aging, the risks of trying to lose ‘those 10 vanity pounds,’ GLP-1s for weight loss, changing your strength protocol in response to declining estrogen, and the supplement that benefits everyone, it’s a conversation that will benefit everyone

    Tracking Perimenopause with AI: Symptoms, Sleep, and Long-Term Health

    Perimenopause can start earlier than most women think — even in your 30s. And the symptoms aren’t just hot flashes. In this episode of the Live Long Podcast, host Rachel Lehmann-Haupt sits down with Heidi Davis, CEO of Peri (a purpose-built wearable and app using AI to track perimenopause symptoms), to break down what’s happening in the body, what women often miss, and why tracking your symptoms can be a game-changer for your healthspan. You’ll learn: ✅ The biggest misunderstanding about perimenopause (and why it starts earlier than you expect) ✅ The difference between menopause vs. perimenopause (and why age 51 is not the full story) ✅ Why symptoms like anxiety, sleep disruption, irritability, and brain fog are often ignored early on ✅ How shifting hormones impact the brain, heart, metabolism, cholesterol, weight, and even dental health ✅ Why the “just suffer through it” model can raise long-term risk (including cardiovascular disease) ✅ How symptom tracking helps create a personalized journey—including lifestyle, resistance training, and hormone therapy support ✅ What to watch for in the supplement world: snake oil vs. human-trial-backed ingredients ✅ The most overhyped trend right now (Heidi’s take): the weighted vest ✅ The mindset shift that matters most: your data is your power This conversation is about more than managing symptoms — it’s about using a critical window in your 40s to protect long-term health, stay sharp, and live better for longer. Join Us Live: Livelong Women’s Health Summit (San Francisco) Heidi Davis will be speaking at the Livelong Women’s Health Summit, April 17–18, 2026, in San Francisco — alongside Jane Fonda, Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Stacy Sims, Dr. Dean Ornish, and many more.
