Hack My Age : Menopause Upgrade

Do you feel that you're the only one of your friends who seems to struggle with libido? Or maybe all your friends have put intimacy on the table, and wonder if anyone out there going through this transition is getting any real pleasure with their partners?
We cover:
Why low libido is almost never just about low testosterone

How stress, shame and past experiences shape desire

The "am I broken?" feeling, and why it's usually a very normal response

What's really going on in the brain during arousal and orgasm

The surprising difference between the male and female brain during orgasm

Ever notice you're eating the same way you always have, but suddenly the weight is settling around your middle and just won't budge? Or have you and your partner eaten the exact same meal, and somehow you're the one who feels wrecked afterward?
We cover:
Why you can't eat the same things you used to without paying a price

The house-on-fire analogy that finally makes blood sugar make sense

Why two people can eat the exact same meal and get opposite blood sugar results

What ruins blood sugar that has nothing to do with food

Why hormones alone won't fix it, and why clean eating alone won't either

Have you ever thought about what kind of grandparent you want to be, and realized that if things don't change now, your body might not be able to keep up when the time actually comes? Or are you already a grandparent and finding that you want to be so much more present and involved but nobody ever told you how to actually prepare for that role?
We cover:
The active grandparent hypothesis from Harvard and why evolution actually designed us to live longer for our grandchildren

Why the window of real impact with your grandkids is shorter than you think and what that means for your health right now

The one thing Kristen says new grandparents should never do, and how to build a relationship that keeps you welcome and wanted

Which is the most underrated foundation of every single wellness goal you have

The three habits that will make you the grandparent everyone wants around, starting today

 
Kristen Coffield is redefining what it means to thrive in life's third act. As the visionary behind The Culinary Cure™ and Active Grandparenting™, she's empowering a new generation of grandparents and active agers to seize the limitless potential of their most vibrant years. An advocate for owning your longevity and wellness, Kristen teaches how small, strategic daily habits—starting with hydration—hold the key to a longer, stronger, and more energized life.
 
Author of How Healthy People Eat: An Eater's Guide to Healthy Habits and creator of the 21-Day Active Grandparenting™ Wellness Reset, Kristen shares her expertise across top media platforms, including ABC7's Good Morning Washington and Fox5's Good Day DC.

Did a bone scan come back with the word osteopenia, and your first thought was, wait, I'm way too young for this? Have you been told your bones are fine, but have no idea what this bone scan is all about?
We cover:
Why bone loss can start way earlier than almost anyone warns you about

The scan most doctors order, and what it can quietly miss about your real bone strength

Bone density versus bone quality, and why that difference actually matters

The estrogen and bone connection nobody seems to explain clearly

Whether a tiny starter dose of HRT is really doing anything for your bones
