February 01, 2023 Episode 014: C&C invite Hetal Vig on to speak about the importance of screening and cancer genetics
Perimenopause is such an important time to continue with and/or start preventative cancer screenings: mammograms, pap smears, colonoscopies and skin checks to name a few. Did your mom, dad, sibling or close relative have a cancer diagnosis and you're afraid the "c" word runs in your family. Should you get screenings earlier than suggested? How do you know when to have a conversation with your doctor? Christen and Carla speak with board certified genetic counselor, Hetal Vig, on today's episode to find out all about cancer risk and genetic counseling. Why is genetic counseling important? Who should be counseled? What should you do with the information if you get tested? If you've ever asked yourself these questions or are curious about genetic testing, this is an episode for you! We hope you enjoy listening to this conversation with Hetal--she's a fountain of knowledge and breaks it down for us to make sense of it all!

In Episode 10, Christen and Carla talked with Carla's dear friend, Courtney Cherry about relationships and how those relationships evolve as we age.

Instead of editing the content down to one bite-sized episode, C&C decided to do a Part 2 on relationships. Christen and Carla wrap up the first of their "If I only knew about" episode on relationships with discussions about familial, romantic and children relationships!

August 31, 2022 Episode 010: If I only knew about...relationships
In a mini-series titled "If I only knew about..." Christen and Carla invite their friends to join them in discussions about a plethora of topics that they wish they knew about when they were younger! For the first episode in this series, C&C invite one of Carla's best friends, Courtney Cherry, to join them in a discussion about relationships. Courtney also happens to be an expert in global brand marketing and communications so it's very fitting to have her on the pod to discuss relationships--something Courtney cultivates on a daily basis for her career. Listen as the girls discuss (and laugh about) relationships and how they evolve throughout adulthood. "If I only knew about...relationships" is a 2-part episode because, you guys, relationships are not cut and dry and there's LOTS to say about them!
Thanks again to Courtney Cherry for being a wonderful friend for over two decades! Tune into Courtney's dog's Instagram account @cheddarthebasset!

June 30, 2022 Episode 008: Christen & Carla do 26 point 2...again!
Christen and Carla are, in fact, marathoners but they cannot be more different on how they approach running! On this episode, Christen and Carla dive into what drove them into running, who persuaded them into long distance running (ahem--that's all CB and her bad influence!), what their overall goals are and how NYC 2022 training is going. And although they couldn't be more different, you can hear their excitement when talking about races and their love of the sport. As they train, they encourage each other, talk one another off the ledge and have each others' backs. Follow them on Instagram #perrymenopauseomg to see how each of their training weeks go and how they use determination and a lot of humor to get through race training season!

June 01, 2022 Episode 006: Christena and Carla conduct their first product review: Deodorant!
Do you use natural deodorant? Is an antiperspirant better than a deodorant? What are the best brands out there? Should women who exercise daily use the same deodorant that their pre-teens use? While Christen and Carla don't have the exact answers to these questions, they will review 7 different deodorant products in their first "product review" episode. They figured since they are getting night sweats, have sporadic hot flashes and are totally sweaty while training for the NYC marathon, why not start with a product they use daily!
