Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Train for Longevity, Not the Body You Had at 30 with Peloton's Jenn Sherman (Re-Release)
Q: For somebody who really is a late adopter to active fitness or to weight training, what is your recommendation post 50?
Sherman recommends beginning small, such as three 20-minute workouts a week, and prioritizing consistency before increasing the workload. She says beginners can use online resources and dumbbells, and can build a balanced routine with strength work and higher-intensity cardio.
Train for Longevity, Not the Body You Had at 30 with Peloton's Jenn Sherman (Re-Release)
Q: What would you say to women who are in that zone who might be thinking the window for reinvention has closed?
Sherman says there is no expiration date on becoming who you want to be. She encourages women to take a chance, trust the experience and confidence they have gained, and ask themselves, “Why not me?”
Why Your Hair and Skin Changed in Menopause with Dr. Corinne Erickson
Q: What are they walking into their doctor's office saying?
Erickson suggests asking for a full-body skin exam and bringing a list of skin and hair changes, including how they affect daily life. Patients can explain their hormone-related concerns and current treatments so the dermatologist can consider them in a broader health context.
Why Your Hair and Skin Changed in Menopause with Dr. Corinne Erickson
Q: What are we doing to hold things in check?
Erickson recommends discussing acne, facial hair growth, and scalp hair loss with a dermatologist and coordinating with the clinician managing hormone therapy. Treatments may include minoxidil or topical options, and systemic androgen blockers should be considered carefully because androgens support other bodily functions.
How to Get Your Menopause Symptoms Taken Seriously with Pilar Guzmán of Oprah Daily
Q: Was there something that you learned in creating this book that you're going to pull into your own life that really shocked you or maybe set you back on your heels a little bit?
Guzmán was struck by how many people assume they did not experience menopause because they never had hot flashes. She says other systems, including the heart, bones, and brain, may still be affected.
