Through the Ages: A Mother-Daughter Talk on Hormones, Hair Loss & Hanging Out

from Wild, Wise & Curious... · host Michelle Haggerty-Wood & Lou Baker

In this warm, honest, and laugh-out-loud episode, a mother and daughter share their very different journeys through perimenopause and beyond. One navigated anxiety, aching bones, and exhaustion—struggling to get out of bed—before finding relief and renewed energy, mostly thanks to HRT, with testosterone making the biggest difference. The other recalls a time when her periods were all over the place, long before kids and big life changes, and burning sanitary pads on the fire was just how it was done. Together, they explore: The emotional and physical highs and lows of shifting hormones How mental health and hormones intersect, and the difference treatment can make The pressure of aging in a world obsessed with youth and perfection Men’s quieter, often overlooked hormonal changes Finding confidence, joy, and strength in your own skin—at every age A heartfelt, hilarious conversation about aging, identity and the shared experiences that connect generations of women.
