Beskrivelse

In this fascinating and eye-opening episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Brenda Wollenberg and Alicia Mazari-Andersen for a powerful conversation about epigenetics — and why your health is far more within your control than you've been led to believe. We explore the truth about gene expression and how factors like stress, nutrition, sleep, and environmental toxins can "switch on" or "switch off" certain health outcomes. This conversation challenges the idea that your genetics are fixed and instead offers a far more empowering perspective on women's health, hormones, and midlife wellbeing. Together, we dive into how epigenetics plays a role in common women's health challenges — from hormone imbalances and fertility issues to menopause symptoms — and why a personalised, root-cause approach is essential in today's increasingly complex health landscape. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Instagram: www.instagram.com/inbalancelm Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/InBalanceLMWellness/ Website: https://www.inbalancelm.com/ https://www.inbalancelm.com/self-check ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram] Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/] ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth [https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth] 🌐 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/] 🏷️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 [https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120] 🔔 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/ [https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/]

episode Menopause Is Bigger Than Hormones with Colette Edwards cover

Menopause Is Bigger Than Hormones with Colette Edwards

In this powerful and deeply important episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Colette Edwards, founder and Chief Medical Officer of Positive Health, for a conversation about what's missing from today's menopause conversation — and why women deserve so much more than symptom management alone. Together, we explore the deep gaps that still exist in women's healthcare, from the historical underrepresentation of women in medical research to the lack of menopause-specific training among healthcare providers. We discuss why menopause cannot be separated from the rest of a woman's life story — including stress, pregnancy, pelvic health, trauma, lifestyle, and long-term wellbeing. We also explore the future of healthcare, the role of AI and digital medicine, and why education and self-advocacy are becoming essential tools for women navigating midlife today. This episode challenges the increasingly simplistic narrative around menopause and hormone therapy, and instead advocates for a more nuanced, personalised, and empowering approach to women's health. 🎙️ If this episode re sonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Facebook: pausitive health Instagram: pausitive_health Pinterest: pausitive_health LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/z-colette-edwards-md-mba/ ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram] Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/] ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth [https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth] 🌐 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/] 🏷️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 [https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120] 🔔 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/ [https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/]

The Wisdom Your Body Has Been Waiting to Share with Naomi Katz

In this deeply thought-provoking episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Naomi Katz for a conversation that challenges one of the most fundamental aspects of modern life — our disconnection from our bodies. Together, we explore how Western culture has prioritised logic, productivity, and intellect, often at the expense of embodied experience, intuition, and our connection to natural cycles. Naomi introduces the concept of somatic embodiment and cyclicality, offering a radically different way of understanding ourselves, our emotions, and our place in the world. We dive into how this disconnection impacts women in particular, especially through transitions like menopause, grief, and identity shifts, and why reconnecting with the body is not just healing, but essential. 🎙️ If this episode re sonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.instagram.com/naomiakatz/ https://www.facebook.com/naomi.katz.756 https://naomikatz.com/womens-collective#power-of-cycles-video [https://naomikatz.com/womens-collective#power-of-cycles-video] ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram] Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/] ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth [https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth] 🌐 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/] 🏷️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 [https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120] 🔔 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/ [https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/]

Episode 37 Everything You've Been Told About Midlife Is Wrong with Remi Gibbs

In this powerful and perspective-shifting episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Remi Gibbs for a conversation that challenges one of the most outdated narratives women have been given — the idea of the "midlife crisis." Instead, we explore midlife and menopause as a profound opportunity for reinvention. We talk about what really happens during this stage of life — the shedding of roles, identities, and expectations — and how menopause can act as a catalyst for becoming more authentic, more self-aware, and more aligned than ever before. Together, we unpack the realities women face in midlife — from being part of the "sandwich generation" caring for both children and aging parents, to navigating a fragmented healthcare system — and why learning to set boundaries, ask for help, and advocate for yourself is no longer optional. This episode is an invitation to stop questioning your worth — and start claiming it. 🎙️ If this episode re sonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: www.renovatedrealities.com On IG and FB @renovatedrealities https://www.linkedin.com/in/remigibbs/ https://mailchi.mp/renovatedrealities/5-steps-to-renovate-your-reality [https://mailchi.mp/renovatedrealities/5-steps-to-renovate-your-reality] ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram] Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/] ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth [https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth] 🌐 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/] 🏷️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 [https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120] 🔔 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/ [https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/]

Why Our Daughters Are Struggling (And What They Need From Us) with Stacy Schaffer

In this deeply important and eye-opening episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by therapist Stacy Michelle Schaffer for a powerful conversation about teen mental health, trauma, and the realities facing the next generation of girls. We explore how today's teenagers are navigating a completely different world — one shaped by social media, constant comparison, and exposure to challenges previous generations never experienced at this scale. Stacy shares her clinical insights into anxiety, body image struggles, and the growing mental health crisis among young women. We also connect this conversation back to midlife — unpacking how unresolved trauma can resurface during perimenopause, and why the way we respond to our children's emotions has a lasting impact on their wellbeing. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: www. authorstacyschaffer.com IG: hoperestored FB: Stacy Schaffer TikTok: authorstacyschaffer ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram] Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ [https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/] ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth [https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth] 🌐 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/] 🏷️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 [https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120] 🔔 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/ [https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/]
