Endometriosis, fibroids and painful periods | Dr. Sarah Yamaguchi

The average woman waits 7 years for an endometriosis diagnosis, and 72% report being gaslit by a provider. On this week’s Broadlines, OBGYN Dr. Sarah Yamaguchi [https://www.instagram.com/dtla_gyn/] joins Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga to break down endometriosis, fibroids, the PCOS-to-PMOS rename, viral TikTok "cures," and the one symptom women should never dismiss: pain. The takeaway? Common and normal are not the same thing, and learning to say "this bothers me, how do we fix it?" can change the way women receive care. EPISODE CREDITS...

Optimism or toxic positivity? | Dr. Deepika Chopra

On this episode of Broadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with behavioral scientist and clinical health psychologist Dr. Deepika Chopra to unpack what “real optimism” actually means — and why toxic positivity can do more harm than good. From manifestation and self-limiting beliefs to grief, resilience, and emotional regulation, Dr. Chopra breaks down the science behind optimism, why affirmations don’t always work, and how to build genuine psychological strength instead of pretending everything is fine. This conversation is honest, emotional, and packed with practical tools for navigating uncertainty, burnout, relationships, motherhood, and modern wellness culture. EPISODE CREDITS...

Winning gold and uplifting our youth | Angel McCoughtry

This week, Rae and Natalie sit down with WNBA legend, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and changemaker Angel McCoughtry for a powerful conversation about winning on and off the court. Angel reflects on growing up as the only girl playing basketball in Baltimore, discovering the WNBA, and how visibility gave her the confidence to dream bigger. She also shares why so many girls leave sports too early, why access and mentorship matter, and how women’s sports are finally getting the attention they’ve always deserved. Angel opens up about the mental health challenges athletes face after retirement, the loss of identity that can come when the game ends, and why more support is needed for life after sport. From uplifting youth to speaking up for the next generation, this episode is a reminder that sports can change lives far beyond the scoreboard. EPISODE CREDITS...
