• 439: Critical Connection Between Parasites, Toxins, and Aging No One Mentions with Laura Frontiero
    2025/04/15
    Are parasites secretly stealing your energy and sabotaging your health? Back again to dive even deeper with "The Gut Genie” Laura Frontiero, to uncover the shocking truth about gut health, parasites, environmental toxins, and their connection to stubborn midlife weight gain and fatigue. Laura reveals why over 75% of people likely harbor parasites, yet most never connect them to their chronic fatigue, brain fog, or weight gain (when they should). Discover why gut health isn't just another wellness trend but the foundation of your overall health, even if you don't have digestive symptoms. Laura breaks down the uncomfortable truth about environmental toxins, and explains the critical connection between toxins, parasites, and hormone chaos – and why this is so critical for our mitochondria. If you've tried everything but still don't feel ‘like yourself’, this conversation exposes the hidden factors that conventional doctors miss.

  • 438: The Probiotic Myth: Why Your Refrigerated Supplements Aren't Working with Tina Anderson
    2025/04/11

In this conversation, Natalie Jill and Tina Anderson, co-founder of Just Thrive Health, explore the often misunderstood world of gut health and probiotics. We tackle the common myths about probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics, and shed light on the science behind spore-based probiotics. Learn the shocking truth about why most probiotics aren't delivering the benefits you expect and why for midlife women especially, optimized gut health plays a crucial role in managing hormones, weight, and mental clarity.

  • 437: Lifting the Lid on Upper Blepharoplasty, Judgment, and Aging Beautifully with Karen Karlsen
    2025/04/08
    This episode offers a judgment-free zone for women curious about eyelid procedures, with practical advice, honest recovery stories, and the empowering reminder that at this age and stage, you don't owe anyone an explanation for your personal choices. This honest chat dives into navigating the judgment that comes with beauty decisions—whether you choose interventions or age naturally—and the surprising psychological journey of seeing your face change after surgery. Host Natalie Jill and guest Karen Karlsen both emphasize that cosmetic procedures aren't about "hating yourself" but rather aligning your appearance with your vibrant internal self. They explore the disconnect that happens when your reflection doesn't match how you feel inside, and provide a detailed breakdown of different eye rejuvenation options, recovery expectations, and crucial factors to consider when selecting a surgeon. Whether you're considering similar procedures or simply interested in conversations about pro-aging (not anti-aging), this discussion provides the real talk that's often missing from beauty conversations.

  • 436: Menopause Unfiltered…Back Fat, Beauty Hacks and More with Chalene Johnson
    2025/04/04

    Wonder why the heck what used to work for your workouts just doesn’t cut it anymore? In this conversation I am diving in with Chalene Johnson to the realities of midlife body changes–even when the scale barely moves, how hormonal changes during perimenopause impact where we store fat, and why the workouts we used to do actually worsen our inflammation. We share the zone two approach that transformed our bodies and has kept us aging powerfully. Beyond physical changes, we discuss the importance of mindset and finding supportive female communities to empower each other.

  • 435: How Our DNA Predicts Our Health with Kashif Khan
    2025/04/01

    Why do supplements that help others make you feel terrible? Why isn't your "healthy" diet working? Your DNA holds the answers. In this episode of Midlife Conversations, I talk with Kashif Khan, author of "The DNA Way," about how our unique genetic code determines our health outcomes in midlife. After overcoming five chronic diseases by aligning his lifestyle with his genetics, Kashif now helps others decode their DNA to prevent illness rather than just predict it.

    Discover why cholesterol might actually be a healing tool, how exercise affects people differently based on their genetics, and why your body's stress response could be aging you faster. Learn how understanding your genetic blueprint can transform your approach to nutrition, exercise, and stress management—potentially reversing biological aging in the process.

  • 434: Energy, Mitochondria, and Menopause - The Science of Algae
    2025/03/28
    Could the answer to women's health be found in a microscopic superfood well known in Asia? When Catharine Arnston's sister received a breast cancer diagnosis in 2008, neither could have predicted it would launch Catharine into a 15-year deep dive into what might be the most overlooked superfood on the planet: algae. What began as research into alkaline diets evolved into a mission to transform how we approach women's health, especially during the challenging perimenopause and menopause transitions. In this information-packed conversation, you'll discover the "double hit" women face during menopause, and why your mitochondria are literally "the lights in your building" that start dimming with age. Catharine reveals the critical enzyme (SOD) that protects your mitochondria but dramatically declines after age 30, how spirulina contains the highest concentration of this enzyme in the world, why the blue pigment in spirulina (phycocyanin) has scientists excited about its cancer-fighting potential, and why popular "green powders" and many algae supplements fail to deliver the promised benefits. We also explore the benefits of chlorella for detoxification and overall wellness and how incorporating algae into our daily routine plays a critical role in maintaining our cellular health. Listen to discover why Catharine believes "it's never too late to feel good" and how this microscopic superfood might just be the missing piece in your wellness puzzle.
