    Kim & Penn Holderness: Surviving Perimenopause as a Couple

    Penn Holderness is the first husband to join Hello Menopause — and he and Kim (married 21 years, and the comedic duo behind the Holderness Family's viral songs and videos) sit down with Stacy to talk about what happens when perimenopause shows up in a marriage. They cover the physical-touch code words that saved their intimacy, the hormone "character" they invented to separate Kim from her symptoms, Kim's own panic-attack-to-diagnosis story, and why they think there needs to be a book about menopause written for men.

    The Risk Factor Nobody's Talking About: Menopause, Estrogen, and the Heart Disease Epidemic in Women

    Cardiologist Dr. Jayne Morgan has a message that cuts through the noise: menopause is not a gynecological footnote. It's a cardiovascular inflection point — and most women don't find out until it's too late. In this episode, Dr. Morgan and Stacy cover the full arc of women's cardiovascular health: why complicated pregnancies are early warning signs, what happens to blood pressure at age 51, how every perimenopausal symptom signals estrogen loss and rising cardiac risk, and why perimenopause is actually your best window to intervene. They also discuss the racial disparity in symptom severity, the limits and promises of AI in women's health, and why the case for estrogen doesn't require the studies we don't have. Dr. Jayne Morgan is a Cardiologist and Vice President of Medical Affairs at Hello Heart, specializing in women’s health, particularly AI and digital heart health technology, and cardiovascular research.

    Beyond Estrogen: Testosterone, longevity, and the science of what comes next: Susan Dominus, New York Times (part 2)

    Stacy and NYT journalist Susan Dominus pick up where Part 1 left off — this time going deep on the hormone that's barely made it into the mainstream menopause conversation: testosterone. Susan, who recently reported an in-depth piece on testosterone for women, breaks down what the research actually shows, why the US is so far behind other countries, and what happens when women go far beyond the studied dose. They get into the delivery problem — why there's no FDA-approved option for women yet, the proposal for a testosterone pill, the risks and side effects at high doses, and how telehealth is filling the gap with varying degrees of rigor. From there, the conversation expands: GLP-1s and their surprising reach beyond weight loss, what longevity researchers actually say is the number one predictor of a longer life, and a fascinating new field called cellular rejuvenation that may one day reverse aging at the cellular level.
