  • My go to for great midlife health information

    Thank you so much for this podcast. I love it! You provide great information and your positivity around HRT is something that I want to spread and shout from the rooftops!! As someone takes HRT and a mental health professional who works with clients who are scared of HRT, I keep sending them your episodes over and over!

  • Stop interrupting the guest

    I was really enjoying the episode with Coach Meg Ellis, but Dr. Hardwick-Smith kept interrupting her and changing the trajectory of the conversation. There were many points during the interview where I wanted to say "Let her finish her thought! Stop interrupting!" Unfortunately, I couldn't finish this episode.
