Episode 26- Hormones, Hot Flashes & Half Portions- Menopause and The GLP-1 Revolution

On this episode, we sit down with Dr. Joanna Oppenheim for a real, eye-opening conversation that goes way beyond the surface. We get into how GLP-1 medications are changing the game for people who’ve struggled with weight loss for years—what actually works, what people get wrong, and why this shift is such a big deal.Dr. Oppenheim also shares her journey into medicine, what drove her to focus on patient care, and the moments that shaped her along the way. Then we dive into a topic that doesn’t get talked about enough—menopause. What it actually is, what women go through physically and emotionally, and why so many feel like they’re navigating it alone.We also flip the lens on ourselves a bit—what men usually misunderstand about menopause, and how we can show up better as partners, not just by “trying,” but by actually understanding what our wives and loved ones are experiencing.It’s honest, informative, and at times humbling—but the kind of conversation that sticks with you long after it ends.Unprepared… but walking away a little more prepared than we expected.
