Noticing changes in your skin ever since hitting midlife? 

You’re not alone—declining estrogen and oxidative stress can take a toll. But there’s plenty you can do to keep your skin firm and healthy. 

That’s why in this episode, I chat with skin regeneration scientist Alessandra Zonari about how peptides and lifestyle strategies can help reverse cellular aging from the inside out. 

We’ll cover everything from strengthening your skin’s barrier to reducing oxidative stress and protecting against premature aging. 

The best part? These game-changing strategies are easier than you may think!

If you haven’t been reminded lately… you are worthy of feeling good in your body and you are worthy of epic healing at any age! So, that’s what this episode’s all about. 

Listen here to discover how to reverse your skin’s biological age to feel youthful and like your best self again! 

Alessandra Zonari is an expert in skin longevity science with a passion for revolutionizing how we age. She has degrees in stem cell biology, skin regeneration, and tissue engineering, and she joined the all-woman team of scientists at OneSkin as a founding member and CSO. Alessandra has had tons of success in her career, including the company’s proprietary OS-01 peptide– the first peptide scientifically proven to reverse skin’s biological age. 

“All these factors accumulate damage on your skin and on the cellular level. When the cells start to accumulate damage, they stop dividing and they secrete inflammation– this leads to collagen breakdown… then you start to see the [skin] sagging.” 

“The same way we take care of our health internally, taking care of your ski

n topically, like from a skincare routine, is extremely important.” 

“The sooner you're thinking about and taking care of the skin as a whole– as in the whole body– the better.”

Good stress can enhance your ability to live.

But what IS good stress?

It helps you find balance in your body and learn to become more comfortable with discomfort- whether it’s physically, socially, or psychologically. 

Jeff Krasno joins the podcast today to teach you all about “good stress”, why it differs from bad stress, and how certain protocols can set you up for lifelong success. 

Having awareness of what’s a good stressor in this world vs. the chaotic stress in society is what we’re going to help you discover today. 

We talk through Jeff’s TOP protocols, and how exactly they work to bring your body back into balance. 

Don’t miss this eye-opening, fun-filled, and insanely insightful podcast episode so you can live your best life with just the healthy kind of stress! 

Jeff is the co-founder and CEO of Commune, a masterclass platform for personal and societal well-being. He wrote the book Good Stress, a collection of wellness protocols he developed to reverse his diabetes, lose 60 pounds, and reclaim his health at age 50. He also owns and helps operate Commune Topanga, a wellness center that hosts regular retreats with yoga, cold plunging, sauna bathing, and more.

“ A lot of these self-imposed physiological stress protocols end up having really potent psychosocial components to them.” 

“Bad stress is modern and chronic. It leads to imbalances and disease. Good stress is paleolithic. It's short. It comes and goes.” 

“I’m quite certain that the source of my diabetes was equally psychological as it was physiological… I believe that living in a constantly stressed state was contributing to dysregulated blood sugar.”

Roughly 80% of perimenopause and menopause symptoms are brain-derived.

From mood swings to low-stress tolerance, insomnia, and more… are you taking care of your brain during this huge transition period in midlife? 

It’s no wonder one of the biggest concerns of women over 40 is their mental health. So, if you’re experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, brain fog, and irritable mood, you’re NOT alone. 

That’s why Dr. Drew Ramsey is joining me on the podcast today to share his expertise on mental health and teach you how to feel safe in your body and brain. 

We talk about: 

Don’t miss this episode– because with the right mental fitness, you’ll start to feel like yourself again, and stay that way for good!

Dr. Drew Ramsey is a board-certified psychiatrist, author, and mental health advocate who founded the Brain Food Clinic– a digital mental health clinical practice. He’s written several books that explore the connections between mental health and nutrition. He’s also on the Advisory Board at Men’s Health, the Editorial Board at Medscape Psychiatry, and the Scientific Advisory Board of the anti-stigma nonprofit Bring Change To Mind.

“I don't want mental fitness in any way to be oppressive. My idea is that it's inspirational because it feels good.”

“I'm a big advocate of therapy, not just for symptom control and because you're struggling with mental health, but for mental fitness for this notion of an ongoing kind of maintenance and attention to your mind, your mental health, and your specific goals.”

“This transition in the 40s, 50s, and 60s into the next chapters of life– being more intentional, being more clear about the challenges for each of us… I think it helps us have a little more grace and feel more oriented.”

She works every day to shift the collective perspective on midlife and menopause. Tamsen has her own podcast– the Tamsen Show– and is a widely-known keynote speaker on mastering midlife. 

“I did finally go on hormone therapy and I'm glad I did… it's been very helpful to me. But I never discounted lifestyle as a huge part of that change.”

“I don't think the menopause ends in the doctor's office. I think it goes on to the workplace. I think it goes on to everywhere– to your closet; to your skincare routine; to your hair…”

“It feels life-giving. It feels like we're taking charge and we're owning the narrative and that's different than, ‘Oh gosh, I have to do this’.”

“That's the beautiful thing is that we all get to course correct. Like I always say, now is the new later– especially when it comes to feeling amazing. You can course correct literally today!”

Feeling stuck in perimenopause? 

Navigating perimenopause can feel overwhelming, especially when women’s health is so often treated like men’s. 

But it’s time to change that! 

We’re so used to these deep-seated societal beliefs about women in midlife– putting us at a disadvantage when it comes to whole body health and disease prevention, especially as we age.

So if you’re struggling to get answers in perimenopause from your doctors, I’m here to connect the dots and empower you with knowledge. 

In this episode, we break down women’s healthcare, common perimenopause symptoms, and how to recognize the early signs of hormonal shifts. Plus, I’m sharing a sneak peek into my upcoming book, The Perimenopause Revolution, coming this fall!

Tune in here to get the perimenopause answers you’ve been looking for. 

“I believe it's an average of 6 to 7 doctor visits before they get any help at all or that they are recognized as being in perimenopause at all.”

“Many women are plagued with confusion over issues like these, and they're having a difficult time connecting the dots because they're being told otherwise. Yet, when it comes to perimenopause, in order to understand what's not normal, you must first know your own baseline.”

#426: 10 Most Common Reasons Your Glucose Levels are Rising Up

Can LIGHT alone really help treat debilitating diseases? 

Think… 

Inflammation. Chronic pain. Arthritis. Gut diseases. Thyroid issues. Skin conditions. Mental health and cognitive function. Even CANCERS… 

It’s true. Light CAN be a solution to all of these conditions. 

How? All humans are hardwired to respond to light– our hormone shifts and energy signals adapt to light. So treatments like red light therapy help you tap into your body’s biology and highlight what’s available in nature… only at an accelerated rate. 

Red Light expert Jonathan Otto joins the podcast today to explain how red light as a non-invasive, pain-free, chemical-free treatment method can help reverse cancer and other chronic diseases. 

Sounds too good to be true? You’ll get all the facts here on how red light therapy may be just what you need to overcome setbacks and feel totally rejuvenated in your health!

Jonathan Otto is an investigative journalist, natural health researcher, documentary filmmaker, and humanitarian with an extensive research background in cellular healing. He created RedLife™ – a red light therapy device that helps to rejuvenate and restore health. He’s also the founder of Well Of Life™ – a range of high-quality natural supplements that provide ultimate healing. 

“I'm so grateful to many therapies, including red light therapy. It really has changed my life and it's changed so many people's lives around me of people that I love and care about, which has made me feel like an actual obligation to speak about this.”

“Even though women live longer, we’re not living healthier. And if red light therapy and having these modalities are going to help you to live a better, more fulfilled and more alive life for longer– I mean that to me, that's the name of the game.” 

“With people using red light therapy, it's like a one and done. What's happening is people will save so much money, it's almost ridiculous. In that sense, it doesn't cost you anything, because there are so many things that it can replace.”
