Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

92: Menopause and Muscle: It is NOT Too Late to Get Strong with Dr. Stuart Phillips
Q: What are the key changes in the new Resistance Training Guidelines and why now?
The guidelines reflect three years of development, broadening the evidence base and recognizing resistance training as essential for aging populations, not just for athletes; updates address how various loading strategies benefit bone and muscle and emphasize practical, inclusive prescription rather than one-size-fits-all programs.
39: Floored by the Truth: Demystifying Pelvic Health from Teens to Menopause with Dr. Sara Reardon
Q: What role does education for teens play in long-term pelvic health?
She emphasizes early education to prevent decades of untreated issues, noting painful periods and urinary symptoms should not be considered normal and that early awareness can change future health outcomes.
39: Floored by the Truth: Demystifying Pelvic Health from Teens to Menopause with Dr. Sara Reardon
Q: Could you explain how Floored helps people understand the difference between pelvic floor tension and weakness?
Dr. Reardon explains that many pelvic floor issues come from a balance between tension and relaxation, and that both must be addressed in a tailored approach rather than defaulting to just strengthening (Kegels) or just relaxing.
46: PAUZ Before You Perimenopause: The Reset Your Body Is Begging For with Natalie Perkins
Q: What are the things you're excited about for PAUZ Health's growth?
Natalie is excited about growing the community membership, launching live hormone-therapy options for women, and expanding the marketplace with non-PFA products. She emphasizes creating a sustainable, affordable model and strengthening access to care through virtual and in-person options.
46: PAUZ Before You Perimenopause: The Reset Your Body Is Begging For with Natalie Perkins
Q: Talk to me a little bit about how you actually started PAUZ Health and how you got the name.
The genesis came from observing gaps in the medical system for perimenopause care and imagining a virtual, accessible platform. PAUZ stands for pausing to reflect, learn about hormone therapy, and then decide what works best, ultimately evolving from a hormone-focused idea to a comprehensive approach that includes education, clinical access, and a curated marketplace.
