The research is so clear… if you want to speed up your biological age, don’t use hormones. 

You can be so healthy and dialed in with your habits, but even that won’t stop your hormones from inevitably plummeting in midlife. 

That’s why Dr. Amy Killen joins the show to dive into the realities of women’s health in midlife and how hormone replacement can be a game-changer. This conversation sheds light on what’s really happening inside your body in midlife—and what you can do about it! 

Dr. Amy breaks down how hormone replacement therapy (HRT), targeted supplements, and strategic lab testing can be huge for your energy, cognition, and longevity. 

We’ll also cover the lifestyle changes that truly move the needle in midlife, and how to stay proactive instead of stuck in “default mode.”

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still struggling, this episode will make you feel seen and offer real solutions.

It’s time to feel inspired, empowered, informed, and ready to take ownership of your midlife health journey!
