    Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist, MD: Hormetic Stress, Women’s Resilience, and the 5 Stressors That Support Longevity Jun 18, 2026
    Show notes

    Avoiding stress at all costs may actually be making you less resilient.

    In this episode, Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist reframes stress as one of the body’s most overlooked tools for longevity. The right kind of challenge can activate repair, strengthen resilience, improve metabolic health, and help the body adapt in ways that support healthier aging over time. Rather than trying to eliminate stress completely, she explains how to use it more intelligently.

    At the center of the conversation are five key stressors the body appears designed to benefit from when they’re used well: plant phytochemicals, exercise, heat and cold exposure, time-restricted eating, and purpose-driven psychological stress.

    Sharon also explains why recovery matters and why too little stress can be just as harmful as too much, and how mindset changes the biology of the stress response.

    A study of 29,000 people found that believing stress is harmful raised the risk of dying by 43%, while viewing it as not harmful lowered that risk by 17%.

    Dr. Martha Gulati, MD: Women's Heart Disease, Female-Specific Risk Factors, and What Medicine Gets Wrong About Cardiovascular Health Jun 11, 2026
    Show notes

    Heart disease is not only a man's disease. It is the number one killer of women, responsible for ten times more deaths than breast cancer. And yet most women have never had a real conversation about their cardiovascular risk, because the medical system was not built to catch it in them.

    Dr. Martha Gulati is the Director of Preventive Cardiology and Associate Director of the Barbra Streisand Women's Heart Center at Cedars-Sinai, Director of the Davis Women's Heart Center at Houston Methodist, and author of Saving Women's Hearts. Her own quote has become one of the most cited lines in women's cardiology: "Heart disease is the number one killer of women, but lack of awareness is a close second."

    This conversation goes into how the female heart develops disease differently, why women's symptoms get dismissed even when they use the words chest pain, and the pregnancy complications, hormonal history, and inflammatory conditions that quietly raise cardiovascular risk for decades before anything shows up on a standard panel.

    • The labs every woman should ask for, including LP(a), high-sensitivity CRP, and ApoB, with specific reference ranges

    • Why women get more cardiovascular benefit per minute of exercise than men, and what the exercise prescription actually looks like

    Dr. Jolene Brighten, ND - Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, PMDD, PMOS and Postpartum Hormones Jun 04, 2026
    Show notes

    Women are often told that painful periods, irregular cycles, bloating, mood changes, fatigue, brain fog, postpartum symptoms, and hormonal shifts are “normal.”

    But common does not mean something should be ignored.

    In this episode, Dr. Jolene Brighten, ND joins me for a practical deep dive into female-specific conditions that are too often missed, minimized, or treated in isolation, including endometriosis, adenomyosis, PMDD, PCOS/PMOS, fibroids, postpartum thyroid changes, and the gut-hormone connection.

    Dr. Brighten explains why endometriosis is not just a reproductive condition, how adenomyosis differs from endometriosis, why PMDD is not simply “bad PMS,” how histamine may play a role in cyclical symptoms, and why PCOS is now being reframed as a broader metabolic and endocrine condition.

    Dr. Izabella Wentz: IBS Root Causes, Leaky Gut, Autoimmunity, and How To Start Healing Your Gut May 28, 2026
    Show notes

    Less than 25% of people with IBS get real relief from conventional medicine. That number tells you everything about how the current approach is failing.

    Most people with IBS have been told it is stress, told to take medication, and sent home. But irritable bowel syndrome is not one condition, it is a label applied to a cluster of symptoms that can have 20 to 40 completely different root causes. And left unaddressed, it is one of the most reliable predictors of autoimmune disease down the line.

    In this episode I sit down with Dr. Izabella Wentz, clinical pharmacist, functional medicine expert, and NYT bestselling author known as the Thyroid Pharmacist. After her own IBS diagnosis in pharmacy school preceded her Hashimoto's diagnosis by six years, she has spent over a decade connecting the dots between gut dysfunction and autoimmunity for hundreds of thousands of people.

    Dr. Scott Sherr, MD: Why Stress Blocks Healing: Mitochondria, Immune Aging, Hyperbaric Oxygen, and Methylene Blue May 21, 2026
    Show notes

    There is a state where the body gets locked in sympathetic activation and mitochondrial dysfunction at the same time and no matter what supplements you take, no matter what protocols you run, nothing actually works. Dr. Scott Sherr calls it the sympathetic spiral of doom, and in this episode we break down exactly what it is, why so many people are stuck in it without knowing it, and the right sequence to actually get out.

    Dr. Scott is a board certified internal medicine physician, certified in hyperbaric oxygen therapy and health optimization medicine, and the chief medical officer of One Base Health, the company behind the hyperbaric chamber you see in every episode. He advises me personally on my hyperbaric protocols, including the ovarian longevity protocol I have been running, and this conversation goes deep into the science behind why that protocol makes sense and what we are actually trying to achieve.

    Dr. Poonam Desai: The 5 Labs Women Need, Heart Disease Risk, Microplastics, and Perimenopause May 14, 2026
    Show notes

    Most women have had bloodwork done. What most women haven't had is the right bloodwork.

    In this episode, Dr. Poonam Desai, double board certified in lifestyle and emergency medicine, NAM certified in menopause care, and founder of Longevity Place and Her Longevity, breaks down the five labs she runs on every female patient, the optimal values most physicians aren't targeting, and why the standard panel tells you almost nothing about long-term cardiovascular risk, metabolic health, or inflammation. This is one of the most practical longevity conversations I've had for women who want to know where they actually stand.

    We also go deep on the three female life phases medicine consistently underserves, how women's cardiac symptoms are still being dismissed in clinical settings, and what a real foundational protocol looks like before any advanced intervention enters the picture. The perimenopause section is worth your full attention, what is shifting hormonally and metabolically, why those symptoms should not be pushed through, and why the window for acting is earlier than most women are told.

    Prof. Belinda Beck, PhD: Bone Health: Building Strong Bones, Preventing Age-Related Loss, And Reversing Osteoporosis With Evidence-Based Exercise May 07, 2026
    Show notes

    Most women are not thinking about their bones until a fracture happens or a scan comes back alarmingly. By then, the window for the most impactful intervention has often been narrowing for decades. Bone density peaks around age 18, not 30 as widely believed and the slow decline that follows is largely silent until it isn't.

    Professor Belinda Beck, PhD has spent more than two decades studying exactly what it takes to stop and reverse that decline. She is a professor at Griffith University, founder of the Bloom Clinic in Brisbane, and the principal investigator behind the LIFTMORE trials, a body of research that changed the scientific consensus on what is actually possible for women with osteoporosis and osteopenia.

    Her findings showed that heavy resistance and impact training twice weekly can safely grow bone mineral density in the spine and hip, even in women already diagnosed with very low bone mass and prior osteoporotic fractures. This was not what the medical establishment expected. And it fundamentally changed how serious practitioners now think about bone.

    Show notes

    In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Dawn Mussallem, DO, an integrative oncologist, lifestyle medicine specialist, cancer survivor, heart transplant recipient, and the newly appointed Chief Medical Officer of Fountain Life.

    We talk about why cancer rates are rising, what we actually know about prevention, and why early detection matters so much when it comes to long-term outcomes. We also discuss the role of exercise, sleep, fiber, metabolic health, toxins, alcohol, gut health, screening tools, mammograms, full-body MRI, liquid biopsies, and why the basics still matter more than most people want to admit.

    Dr. Dawn also shares her extraordinary personal story: She is a stage 4 cancer survivor who went through chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant at 26, developed cardiac toxicity from treatment 18 years later, received a heart transplant, and became the first person in the world to run a marathon within a year of receiving a new heart.

    GLP-1 Crisis for Women, Gut Health, Bone Loss with Dr. Sara Szal, MD Apr 16, 2026
    Show notes

    We're back with Dr. Szal! Today we are discussing a variety of topics: Gut health, peptides, hormone health , GLP-1's, bone health and so much more!In this conversation, Dr. Sara G dives into the gut-brain connection and explains how disrupting the microbiome can directly affect mood, anxiety, and overall mental resilience. She breaks down why even a single course of antibiotics can shift the balance of your gut in ways most people never consider, and what that means for how you feel day to day.This is where the gut-brain connection becomes practical, not theoretical. Instead of treating symptoms in isolation, understanding how the microbiome regulates neurotransmitters and inflammation changes the way these issues are approached.Rebuilding that system requires more than random probiotics or diet changes. The Weed, Seed, Feed framework focuses on restoring gut balance in the right order, removing what doesn’t belong, reintroducing beneficial bacteria, and supporting their growth long-term.This episode is sponsored by Zen Basil.
