Did you catch Oprah's recent menopause special? In this episode of Midlife Hormone Crisis, I'm diving straight into what Oprah got right—and what she completely missed—about menopause, perimenopause symptoms, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and women's healthcare. As a Functional Medicine Health Coach, Certified Midlife Hormone Specialist, and someone navigating my own midlife chaos, I'm not holding back. Yep, I totally admit that I may come across as a little unhinged in this episode!
If you've been struggling with brain fog, stubborn belly fat, overwhelming hormonal symptoms, or confusion from conflicting online advice, you're not alone. Today, I'm tackling why Oprah’s special felt too little, too late, and how the celebrity-driven virtue signaling surrounding menopause still leaves women without clear answers.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
