  • Podcast titles are not reflective of the show

    Hopefully constructive feedback for you but I’ve listened to around 5 of

    your podcasts and end each very frustrated as the titles do not reflect what you actually talk about and I feel like I’ve either learnt nothing or not learned what I was after

  • 🙏🏻Menopause Goddess🙏🏻

    Thank you so much for all your wisdom, energy and perseverance. Between you and my amazing doctor (Shout out to the gorgeous Dr Greenman in Perth, WA who put me on to your podcast!) I feel like a new woman. I feel sad that my mum and so many of her generation had to suffer. And I feel sad that so many women aren’t listening to the science. (if indeed they get to hear it - and not just about HRT!) I was one of those who had few symptoms and wanted to age ‘naturally.’ Thank goddesses I saw the li... more

  • Brilliant. And….

    This is a brilliant podcast for women who can often feel isolated in different stages of their life. However, episode 70 as well intentioned as it is, I can’t help but feel disappointed that the latest episode is fundamentally a man validating the experience of perimenopause. We shouldn’t need this to be the case.

102 – GLP-1s, hormones & the truth about weight gain with Rose Stokes
Q: What should people consider when thinking about using GLP-1s?
Use them to pause and reassess, ensure nutrition and metabolic health are optimized, and be wary of quick-fix narratives promoted on social media.
102 – GLP-1s, hormones & the truth about weight gain with Rose Stokes
Q: Why are GLP-1s not a universal solution?
They're not a panacea; access is limited, they require supportive nutrition and activity, and long-term sustainability depends on addressing underlying factors.
102 – GLP-1s, hormones & the truth about weight gain with Rose Stokes
Q: What is driving the concern about weight and obesity beyond personal responsibility?
The guests discuss that biology, hormones, environment, and genetics all play roles, and there is a need to translate complex science to patients rather than blaming individuals.
100 – Sepsis, UTIs & quadruple amputation: Kim’s story
Q: So just tell me what happened, Kim, if you don't mind.
Kim describes traveling in Spain when she became suddenly unwell, developed kidney pain and severe symptoms, was misdiagnosed with a non-urgent issue, and eventually faced a life-threatening progression that necessitated hospital care and eventual amputation after sepsis took hold.
99 – Gut health, hormones & food noise with Dominique Ludwig
Q: What three take-home tips would you give listeners who feel overwhelmed by changing their eating habits?
