Midlife Conversations with Natalie Jill
Changing Conversations Around Age, Potential, and Possibility for Women in MIDLIFE
My go to hormone girls are Kristin and Maria at Wise + Well are one of my most downloaded podcasts, my most popular summit interview, AND my go to girls for all of my hormone questions. Today we dive even deeper on what the heck is happening to our hormones in midlife the Breast Cancer and Hormone Connection, The Benefits of Taking Hormones in Perimenopause and Menopause, Is It Too Late For Me to Start Taking Hormones?
Dr. Amie and I decided to take our voice note conversation about breast implants from a private text convo to LIVE to you. We are talking about TWELVE boob jobs on the episode! YES 12! The decisions, the mistakes, the beliefs and even the regrets (from me)
The way Sam Horn interacts with people just BLOWS ME AWAY; she is absolutely incredible. How do we communicate with our grown kids? With our partners? At work? With our employees? With friends? All so that we don’t feel like we are unheard and move forward with resentment, ultimately impacting our health.
In midlife we are LOSING muscle and more commonly than not, gaining weight…and wondering what the heck is going on! Dr. Gabrielle Lyons focuses on Muscle Centric Medicine, which shifts the perspective from the pathology of fat/obesity/overweight to our full capacity and taking care of our longevity organ, skeletal muscle. Protein is SUPER important for our muscle health and there is currently a huge shortcoming/oversight in nutritional sciences right now. Labels will say “protein” but protein is made up of 20 essential amino acids, and each protein has a different composition of those 20 amino acids. So the type and quality of your protein really does matter!
The majority of us don’t plan on our OWN death, nor do we consider needing to take care of the older generation. Whatever the situation, there can be so many complications when caring for your aging parents, and preparing for it can make all the difference in the world. There can be SO much devastating guilt around sending someone to a nursing home. It’s a lot.
