Show Notes

I've brought together some of my best conversations on menopause and perimenopause with Dr. Jessica Shepard, Dr. Vonda Wright, and my wife Sage. Covering why your "normal" labs miss it, how a frozen shoulder can signal hormone changes, and the truth about hormone therapy. If you're navigating midlife, this video is for you.
