    The Future of Medicine: Where East Meets West with Dr. Yi Song (Part I)

    Part I: Prevention, Genetics & Regenerative Health What if the future of medicine isn’t choosing between Eastern and Western approaches—but understanding how they work together? In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, I sit down with Dr. Yi Song, a physician from a family deeply rooted in both Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine. After studying at Brown University and conducting PhD research on aging and cancer, she shifted her focus toward the Chinese medicine philosophy of prevention and balance. In 2018, she founded the Zenerchi Retreat in Medellín, Colombia, dedicated to regenerative health and longevity. Together, we explore how ancient medical frameworks and modern technologies—from genetics to red light therapy—can work in harmony to help the body repair, rebalance, and function optimally. In this episode, we discuss: What regenerative health really means How Chinese and Western medicine complement each other The science behind red light therapy How genetics and personalized medicine are shaping the future of care Why prevention is foundational to long-term health In Part 2, we go deeper into one of the most fascinating (and controversial) frontiers in regenerative medicine: stem cells.

    The Most Overlooked Health Intervention for Women: Fair Play with Eve Rodsky

    Creating fairness at home may be one of the most overlooked interventions in women’s health. You can optimize your supplements, track your cycle, lift heavy, eat protein — and still feel exhausted if you’re carrying the invisible workload of everyone around you. That kind of burnout doesn’t just affect your mood; it shows up in your sleep, your hormones, and your long-term health. In this episode, Cat sits down with Eve Rodsky — attorney, researcher, and New York Times bestselling author of Fair Play — whose groundbreaking work on invisible labor and cognitive load has reshaped the conversation around partnership and modern motherhood. This isn’t about chore charts. It’s about reclaiming women’s time, energy, and nervous systems — and building household systems that support women’s health instead of quietly eroding it. We talk about the now-famous “blueberries text” that sparked a global movement, why society treats men’s time like diamonds and women’s time like sand, and how redistributing labor at home can improve mental clarity, physical resilience, and relationship intimacy. If you’ve ever felt resentful, depleted, or like you’re running the invisible project management office of your household… this conversation is for you. Because women’s longevity isn’t just about supplements and workouts. It’s about systems.

    The PCOS Playbook: Diagnosis, Diet Myths, Real Talk on Birth Control, and What Actually Works with Dr. Basma Faris (Part 2)

    In Part 2 of our eye-opening conversation with Dr. Basma Faris, we go deeper into what it really takes to manage PCOS — without shame, confusion, or gaslighting. Dr. Faris breaks down the free foundational factors that matter most for long-term health, why PCOS is so often missed or misdiagnosed, and how women can better advocate for themselves in a healthcare system that isn’t always built to listen. We cut through the noise on diet trends, supplements, medications, and birth control — separating what’s viral from what’s evidence-based — and explore a mindset shift around how we invest in our health and the care we deserve. In this episode, we cover: The dangers of undiagnosed PCOS Tests and tools to advocate for when seeking a diagnosis Carbs, fasting, protein — what actually helps (and what doesn’t) The impact of alcohol and sugar on PCOS Birth control for PCOS management — pros, cons, and alternatives Supplements for PCOS: what works and why The role of GLP-1 medications (and important watch-outs if you’re trying to get pregnant) Navigating healthcare systems and insurance for PCOS treatment This episode is honest, practical, and empowering — because no one should be suffering in silence. 🎧 Listen, rate, review, and share with anyone who needs this conversation.

    What Women Aren’t Being Told About PCOS and Hormone Health with Dr. Basma Faris (Part 1)

    In this powerful two-part episode, one of our most requested guests, Dr. Basma Faris, returns for a deep, no-BS conversation on hormone health — with a sharp focus on the realities of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Dr. Faris has been at the forefront of a highly personalized, patient-centered approach to PCOS management, recognizing that no two women experience — or treat — PCOS the same way. Whether you’ve been diagnosed with PCOS, suspect something is off, or simply want to understand your body better, this episode is for you. Dr. Faris breaks down why PCOS is so complex, why finding a single “root cause” is often impossible, and what actually matters when it comes to personalized strategies that help women feel and function their best. This is practical, nuanced, and rooted in real clinical experience — not quick fixes or oversimplified advice. Beyond PCOS, Cat and Dr. Faris explore what it means to reverse-engineer your health, unpack menopause (including our shared enthusiasm for vaginal estrogen), and examine how everyday environmental exposures — from fragrance and household products to microplastics and chemicals in our clothing — quietly influence hormone health. Informative, honest, and deeply empowering, this conversation will change the way you think about your hormones — and your health — at every stage of life. Make sure you are subscribed to Off With Your Coat, and listen in for part II next week! Connect with Dr. Basma Faris:  IG: @drbasmafaris, @PCOS_telemedicine TikTok: @drbasmafaris
