You Have Permission: Hormones, HRT & Everything You Weren't Told LIVE Panel Podcast

You Have Permission: Hormones, HRT & Everything You Weren't Told LIVE Panel Podcast What happens when you put 100 women in one room and four of the most trusted voices in women's health on one stage? This. Recorded live at Seymour Golf & Country Club, this episode of the Mom Sweat Sanity Podcast tackles the conversations we've been told to whisper about — hormones, HRT, weight, testosterone, and the permission every woman deserves to stop waiting for. Host Brittany Anderson opens with the belief that built this whole room: most of us are waiting for permission — to want more, to take up space, to ask for support — and everything shifts the moment we stop. Then the panel goes there. Honestly, generously, and with a lot of laughter. In this episode: Why that stubborn 5–10 lbs around the midsection is about far more than "eating less" — and the 11 hormonal systems actually at play What to test before you accept "your labs are normal" Is it ever too late to start hormones? The truth about the "age 60" myth (and the 102-year-old who's been on HRT for 52 years) Why "it's a guideline, not a deadline" The perimenopause–ADHD connection, brain fog, and why "just start somewhere" beats another online quiz Testosterone for women: libido, mood, muscle, energy — and why the "normal" lab ranges may be, in Dr. Casperson's words, made up in-house The reframe to carry out the door: you are not broken — you were just never handed the full picture Meet the panel: Dr. Kelly Casperson — board-certified urologic surgeon, founder of the Casperson Clinic, author of You Are Not Broken, and host of the top-ranked You Are Not Broken podcast Dr. Karen Van Wyk — Medical Director of Healthcode for Women, blending family medicine, functional medicine, and somatic work for root-cause hormonal care Dr. Allana Polo, ND — naturopathic physician, founder of Polo Health & Longevity Centre, and author of The Hunger Code Shirley Weir — founder of Menopause Chicks, a community that's supported hundreds of thousands of women through perimenopause and menopause Resources mentioned: You Are Not Broken (Dr. Kelly Casperson) · The Hunger Code (Dr. Allana Polo) · Menopause Chicks community · Healthcode for Women · Polo Health & Longevity Centre A few lines that stuck with us: "Your driver's license is not a permission slip for or against something." "It's a guideline, not a deadline." "We're complicated Ferraris — not Hondas or Toyotas." "Just start somewhere." Want to be in the next room?
