Menopause Isn’t the End — It’s the Upgrade: How to Age Like a Girl with Dr. Mindy Pelz

from The Doctor Youn Show · host Dr. Anthony Youn

In this episode, Dr. Anthony Youn sits down with Dr. Mindy Pelz — bestselling author, women’s health expert, and someone who has lived the menopause journey herself. Dr. Pelz opens up about how menopause completely reframed her life, not as an ending or a decline, but as a powerful transition into greater clarity, confidence, and leadership. She breaks down the science in a way that actually makes sense — from how our brains shift during this stage to why our bodies demand different kinds of movement, sleep habits, and even fasting rhythms. Together, she and Dr. Youn dig into the evolutionary story behind menopause, the neurological upgrades no one talks about, and the practical daily strategies that help women feel strong, energized, and mentally sharp. This conversation is equal parts inspiring and actionable — an invitation to see menopause not as something to survive, but as a chance to step into a new, stronger version of yourself. 🔗 Links and Resources: ➡️ Today's Sponsor: Branch Basics - https://branchbasics.com/dryoun and use coupon code to get 15% and a FREE started pack when you use coupon code DRYOUN Check out Dr. Youn’s skincare products and nutritional supplements -⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠younbeauty.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Download his FREE eGuide: "What to Eat to Look Younger" -⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discover.younbeauty.com/what-to-eat-to-look-younger-1 Download his FREE eGuide: 10 Things Every Plastic Surgery Patient Must Know: https://discover.younbeauty.com/10-things-1 ⁠⁠⁠YOUN Beauty Retinol Moisturizer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YOUN Beauty Retinol Eye Cream⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Dr. Youn on Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@tonyyounmd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Dr. Youn on YouTube -⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠youtube.com/tonyyounmd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Dr. Youn on TikTok - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@doctoryoun⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Dr. Youn on Facebook - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@dryoun⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
