What Is Happening to My Body? Perimenopause & Menopause Symptoms Explained with Dr. Alexandra Volo

What is happening to my body? If you've suddenly started waking up at 3 a.m., forgetting words, feeling anxious, losing your patience, shedding more hair than usual, turning the thermostat down when everyone else is freezing, or wondering where your libido went, you are not alone. In this episode of Shut Up! Tell Me More, I sit down with board-certified family medicine physician Dr. Alexandra Volo to talk about perimenopause and menopause, two stages of life that so many women enter completely unprepared for. We discuss what perimenopause actually is, the symptoms women often don't realize are hormone-related, including hot flashes, mood swings, anxiety, brain fog, sleep issues, hair loss, and low libido, whether there is a blood test for perimenopause, when menopause officially begins, and the treatment options available, from hormone therapy to natural approaches. Dr. Volo sees and treats women experiencing perimenopause and menopause every day in her practice, and she says the good news is this: women do not have to suffer through this transition feeling confused and alone. This episode is for women, and it's also for the people who know and love them. Men, I'm talking to you! Whether it's your wife, mom, sister, friend, loved one, or even your random neighbor (lol), chances are someone in your life is going through this. The more we understand what's happening, the more empathy and support we can give one another. Whether you're in your 30s, 40s, or 50s, or you love someone who is, this conversation may finally answer the question so many women are asking: What is happening to my body?

Saving Lives: Louise Altese Isidori's Ovarian Cancer Journey

The risk of developing ovarian cancer in a woman's lifetime is about 1 in 70. Most women don't know the symptoms, and many cases aren't diagnosed until the disease has already spread. Known as the "Whisper Killer," ovarian cancer often presents with subtle signs that are easy to dismiss. But as you'll hear in this episode, some women may have no symptoms at all. In this powerful episode of Shut Up! Tell Me More, host Pam Comiter sits down with ovarian cancer advocate and survivor Louise Altese Isidori to discuss the reality of this devastating disease. Louise has been featured on Good Morning America and in the New York Post, and has taken her advocacy all the way to Capitol Hill, fighting to make ovarian cancer screenings and conversations a routine part of women's healthcare. Together, they discuss Louise's diagnosis, the emotional and physical realities of treatment, and how she continued to show up for her son and her life while battling cancer. They also talk about why ovarian cancer is so difficult to detect, why some women experience little to no symptoms, and the critical importance of advocating for yourself within the healthcare system. Louise shares why she believes every woman should discuss transvaginal ultrasounds during their well-woman visits and why asking questions, seeking answers, and pushing for further evaluation can save lives. Whether you're a woman or know a woman, this episode is an important reminder to listen to your body, advocate for yourself, and never be afraid to ask for more information. This episode could save a life. Please share it far and wide.

The Amazing Adventures of an Amish Stripper with Naomi Swartzentruber

Shut Up! Tell Me More Replay! We originally recorded this episode in February 2025, and it remains one of the most fascinating, surprising, and unforgettable conversations we've ever had on the show. Naomi Swartzentruber, grew up in a strict Amish community, living without modern technology, plowing fields with horses, and milking cows by hand. At just 17 years old, she made the life-changing decision to leave that world behind. What followed was something she never could have imagined: a 20-year career as an exotic dancer. In this episode, Naomi shares her incredible journey from Amish life to the world of stripping, the challenges she faced along the way, and the lessons she learned through decades of reinvention. We discuss her Amish childhood, her escape from the community, the culture shock of entering the modern world, and the story behind her memoir, The Amazing Adventures of an Amish Stripper. Naomi is funny, honest, and completely captivating. If you haven't heard this episode before, you're in for a treat. And if you have, it's absolutely worth another listen.

Entertainment Industry Secrets, Content Creator Deals and Shocking Contracts with Brenda Schamy

Entertainment lawyer Brenda Schamy joins Shut Up! Tell Me More for a fascinating conversation about the hidden side of the entertainment industry. What actually happens behind the scenes when some of our favorite content creators, actors, podcasters, and entertainers are negotiating major deals and contracts? Before representing talent, brands, and content creators, Brenda worked as a public defender in Miami Dade, handling intense criminal cases. We talk about what she saw during that chapter of her life, the moments that stayed with her, and why she ultimately decided to pivot into entertainment law. From there, we get into what really happens behind closed doors in entertainment and content creator deals. How much control do companies try to have over creators? What happens on the brand side when a content creator gets "canceled"? What happens when podcast and business partnerships fall apart publicly? And how are lawyers now protecting clients as AI becomes more advanced by the day? Of course, we also get into one of the biggest topics in content creation right now: the tension between Alix Earle and Alex Cooper and what Brenda said about the legal side of situations like this is something we truly never considered. We also discuss the biggest mistakes people make before signing deals, the realities of working in entertainment, and the things most of us never think about when we see someone posting their seemingly glamorous life online. This episode is eye opening, entertaining, and full of behind the scenes stories from worlds most people never get access to.
