    I just listened to the clothing workouts and there wasn’t hardly any practical tips whatsoever. The entire episode was one big advertisement.

    I get that they need to make money but this was way overboard.

  • Honest and Open Conversations on a Long Silenced Topic

    So informative with real life talk that all women can relate to. Love that this topic is finally being openly discussed, so women are able to educate themselves and support each other. All I remember was my mother referring to “the change” back in the day, like it was a taboo topic, “no more”… thank you for this.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Lichen Sclerosus with Dr. Amanda Selk: Women’s Health, Perimenopause and Menopause Journey
Q: Is a biopsy always required for diagnosis, or can clinicians diagnose clinically in some cases?
In classic textbook cases clinicians may diagnose clinically without biopsy; biopsy is reserved for uncertain cases, suspected cancer, or when disease behavior is atypical.
Lichen Sclerosus with Dr. Amanda Selk: Women’s Health, Perimenopause and Menopause Journey
Q: Dr. Selk, how often should we be examining ourselves?
Most experts recommend a monthly look, but it should be balanced with avoiding obsessive checking; a monthly self-exam helps identify subtle changes without fostering anxiety.
Liv Lighter with Gina Livy: Women’s Health, Perimenopause and Menopause Journey
Q: Why tackle midlife and menopause in a lifestyle book rather than a traditional diet book?
She argues that midlife is a period where people seek depth, community, and sustainable living; the book aims to provide context, compassion, and concrete, doable shifts that improve life quality beyond weight.
Liv Lighter with Gina Livy: Women’s Health, Perimenopause and Menopause Journey
Q: What can we expect from the book Liv Lighter?
Gina explains that the book grew out of wanting a lifestyle guide that blends beauty, design, and practical psychology, focusing on how small daily changes can liberate people from guilt and help them live more true to themselves rather than chasing extreme diets.
(BEST OF) Eating Disorders in Perimenopause with Kyla Fox (pt 2) - Menopause Journey and Midlife Where Suffering is Optional
Q: What is the difference between an eating disorder and disordered eating?
Disordered eating is a broader, more pervasive pattern of preoccupation with food and body that can be harmful even if it doesn't meet diagnostic criteria, whereas an eating disorder is a clinically defined condition that can severely impair functioning, though both exist on a spectrum and require compassionate, tailored care.
