  • Yes, to pleasure!

    Thank you for this fantastic podcast. Not only do I feel like I’m listening to a girlfriend, but an educated one who wants to help women everywhere. Notably, you talk about intimacy and pleasure - a topic rarely spoken about, in regard to women’s health and the stage of menopause. So many experts are talking about HRT but leave out intimacy completely. And, as you’ve said, “women don’t value pleasure across the world…” Yup. Our bodies were made for pleasure. Plus, your guest experts are top notc... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Beyond the Pink: Breast Cancer Survivorship, Sexual Health, and Thriving After Treatment | Dr. Eleonora Teplinsky
Q: How should menopausal hormone therapy be approached in post-cancer patients?
The approach depends on hormone receptor status and recurrence risk; for hormone receptor-negative cases, estrogen-based therapies may be used with caution, while for hormone receptor-positive cases decisions require weighing quality of life against recurrence risk, often involving the oncologist and menopause specialist.
Beyond the Pink: Breast Cancer Survivorship, Sexual Health, and Thriving After Treatment | Dr. Eleonora Teplinsky
Q: What should women know before breast cancer in terms of prevention and screening?
There is value in understanding risk beyond family history, including genetic testing, lifestyle factors, and breast density, and we should discuss how to optimize health while balancing fear and potential risk.
Beyond the Prescription: How to Become a More Empowered Patient | Dr. Lucy McBride
Q: What does it actually mean to take charge of your health?
Lucy explains that it means developing health agency through self-awareness, understanding your story, and asking sharper questions to your clinician, rather than trying to do everything yourself or accepting a transactional appointment as the norm.
Seven Gynecologists Refused Her Before She Got Help | Mathilde Olstad on Vulvovaginal Pain
Q: Tell me why you started your podcast, and how do you feel like it's changing the landscape locally?
The podcast began as a way to share lived experiences, connect patients through a supportive global community, and democratize access to expert knowledge, ultimately helping clinicians, patients, and advocates learn from diverse stories and drive systemic improvements.
Seven Gynecologists Refused Her Before She Got Help | Mathilde Olstad on Vulvovaginal Pain
Q: Tell me what's your plans in terms of building this community and trying to get more global support? How can we help?
Mathilde outlines expanding the education infrastructure with on-demand, evidence-based courses across modules, broader clinician outreach, and leveraging international collaboration to reach more patients and practitioners who can benefit from up-to-date information.
