What if the second half of a woman's life wasn't about decline, but about becoming the most authentic, powerful version of herself she's ever been?
In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright, orthopedic surgeon, aging researcher, and longevity expert, joins Aisha Rodrigue to dismantle the shame, silence, and suffering that have defined menopause for generations, and reveal why this transition can be the most vibrant, indefinable stage of a woman's life.
Together, they expose how women's bodies have been misunderstood, dismissed, and gaslit by a medical system built on male biology, and how reclaiming hormones, movement, and self-worth can transform menopause from chaos into mastery.
This is not your mother's menopause. This is a revolution.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
• Why 51% of humans are female, yet nearly all health research has been done on the other 49%, and how this has shaped the way women age, suffer, and heal
• The truth about estrogen, it's not a "sex hormone," it's a survival hormone that protects your brain, heart, bones, and metabolism at a cellular level
• How the "menolescence," the hormonal chaos of losing estrogen, mirrors adolescence in reverse, and why understanding this biology changes everything
• Why women have been conditioned to wear their suffering like a badge of honor and how this silent endurance keeps them from getting the care they deserve
• How fascia, mobility, strength training, and hormones work together to prevent the "time bombs of aging," from metabolic collapse to the 30% mortality rate after a hip fracture
