I turned 60 this year — a full 60-year zodiac return as a Fire Horse — and instead of throwing the big celebration I thought I “should,” I chose something different. I chose reflection. In this episode, I share the 12 lessons I would tell my 16-year-old self about power, intuition, discipline, pleasure, hormones, and what midlife actually unlocks. This isn’t about aging quietly. It’s about stepping into embodied authority and realizing that 60 might just be the beginning.If you love the podcast, I'd be so grateful if you left me a review!

Menopause is not just hormonal.It’s historical. Cultural. Political. Personal.In this powerful Black History Month conversation, Dr. Arianna sits down with Omisade Burney-Scott — cultural worker, storyteller, and founder of The Black Girl’s Guide to Surviving Menopause — to radically expand how we understand midlife.This episode challenges the narrow, binary narrative that has long defined menopause in the United States and asks a deeper question:Who has been centered in this conversation — and who has been left out?Together, we explore:The concept of the Menopausal MultiverseHow menopause has been flattened into a limited medical narrative“Weathering” — the biological impact of chronic stress and generational traumaWhy reproductive justice includes menopauseCultural identity and how it shapes healthcare access and outcomesThe power of language — and why “ladies” may not be the right defaultHow we create safe containers for new narratives to emergeThis conversation goes beyond symptoms and prescriptions.It’s about who is seen.Who is heard.And who has historically been excluded from care.Listen with curiosity.Listen with openness.Because this one may stretch you — in the best way.About Our GuestOmisade Burney-Scott (she/her) is a Black Southern, 7th-generation North Carolinian feminist, cultural worker, and social justice advocate with decades of experience in nonprofit leadership and philanthropy. She is the creator of The Black Girl’s Guide to Surviving Menopause, a multimedia narrative-shift project rooted in reproductive justice and cultural storytelling.Timestamped Breakdown00:00 – Opening reflections & Black History Month framing03:45 – Introducing Omisade and her work06:20 – The Menopausal Multiverse explained11:10 – How menopause became a narrow, binary narrative15:30 – Identity, race & lived experience in midlife health20:40 – Weathering: chronic stress & generational trauma27:15 – Reproductive justice in midlife33:50 – Who gets centered in menopause conversations39:10 – Language, inclusion & cultural competency44:25 – Expanding care beyond hormones alone49:40 – What providers must understand55:15 – Final reflections on widening the frame of careResources & Links🎥 Watch the full episode on YouTube📍 Book a menopause consultation at Tula Wellness📘 Buy The Menopause Myth: What Your Mother, Doctor, and Friends Haven’t Shared About Life After 35📊 Take the Menopause IQ self-assessment📖 Download a free chapter of The Menopause Myth📱 Follow Dr. Arianna on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and LinkedInIf you love the podcast, leaving a review helps more women find this conversation and access evidence-based midlife education.

In this unapologetically juicy episode of the Stay Juicy Podcast, Dr. Arianna sits down with Maureen Pollack, co-founder and president of LovAbility, for a powerful conversation about pleasure, self-love, and why women deserve access to their bodies without shame.Maureen shares the deeply personal story behind inventing the WaterSlyde, a body-safe, eco-friendly aquatic stimulator designed to make pleasure accessible to women of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

Welcome back to another episode of the Stay Juicy Podcast. I’m your host, Dr. Arianna — and happy 2026, y’all. This episode is all about vision — literal and metaphorical.After having bilateral cataract surgery and suddenly realizing how much I wasn’t seeing, everything in my life came into focus. It made me reflect on my entire year — the highs, the challenges, the manifestations, the miracles, and the deep spiritual unraveling that shaped my path toward 60.In this episode, I’m sharing what 2025 taught me about clarity, aging, pleasure, manifestation, parenting, partnership, fear, intention, and surrender — and what it means to enter 2026 with vision that finally lets you see what’s possible.If you’re ready to stop making resolutions and start inviting possibility, this one is for you.If you love the podcast, I'd be so grateful if you left me a review!

Welcome back to Stay Juicy. Today’s episode is a different kind of juicy — it’s real, raw, and deeply human. I’m joined by my dear friend, psychotherapist and creative powerhouse Dawn McMillan, for a conversation that honestly felt like a therapy session I didn’t know I needed.This week was a lot — aging parents, a child in transition, my husband’s health scare, business pressures, and the weight of just… being human. Dawn and I dive into the truth of midlife: how adulting gets heavier, how we get lost in our thoughts, how our filters shape our reality, and how we can return to ourselves through presence, curiosity, and compassion.We talk about my recent meditation retreat, what it awakened in me, and how easily we can forget what we know to be true when life starts stacking up. Dawn also teaches a powerful tool — her NAIL IT framework — to stop the spiral before it takes over.If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, alone, or like you’re supposed to “have it together,” this episode is for you.Follow Dawn McMillan on Instagram  @TheDawnMcMillan  Work with Dawn, Subscribe to her Substack, and much more HERE!If you love the podcast, I'd be so grateful if you left me a review!

Welcome back to the Stay Juicy Podcast. I’m Dr. Arianna, and today we’re unpacking something big — something that is long overdue in women’s health: the FDA’s removal of the black box warning on estrogen therapy.For 23 years, women have lived under a cloud of unnecessary fear. A fear that changed how we treated menopause, how we educated providers, and how millions of women suffered in silence.Today, we’re breaking down what the new evidence shows, why estrogen was never the villain, and how this moment marks a powerful correction in women’s health. If you’ve ever wondered whether estrogen is safe, whether you should be afraid of hormone therapy, or whether you’ve been misled — this conversation is for you.Let’s get into the truth, the science, and the reclamation of estrogen.Timestamped Overview00:00–02:15Why estrogen has been misunderstood for over two decades02:15–04:45How the black box warning originally happened and why it was flawed04:45–07:30The harm the warning caused — millions untreated, suffering, dismissed07:30–12:00New data: what we now know about estrogen’s true safety profile12:00–15:20The real risks (and why they were exaggerated)15:20–22:00What breast cancer data actually shows22:00–27:00Brain health, heart health, metabolic health: estrogen’s wide-ranging benefits27:00–31:15Why this moment matters for midlife women31:15–34:00Reclaiming your choices: how to make confident decisions about hormone therapy34:00–36:00Final message: your body deserves truth, not fearIf you love the podcast, I'd be so grateful if you left me a review!

Welcome back family!This episode is a little different — it’s not about data or symptoms or even solutions. It’s about reflection. I just returned from the Menopause Society Conference, and I have to tell you — it changed me.There were conversations that went beyond the science — about trauma, burnout, and the invisible weight women carry through midlife. About what it means to practice medicine in a system that doesn’t always see the whole woman. And about what happens when we finally start connecting the dots between hormones, health, and healing.So today, I’m taking you behind the scenes — into the rooms, the talks, and the quiet moments that reminded me why I do this work. This is what I took home from the Menopause Society Conference.Timestamped Topic Overview00:00 – 02:30 | Introduction: Returning from the Menopause Society Conference02:31 – 06:00 | The emotional undercurrent of menopause medicine — why it’s more than hormones06:01 – 10:15 | Conversations that shifted everything: trauma-informed care and compassion fatigue in clinicians10:16 – 14:00 | When science meets the soul — connecting data with humanity14:01 – 18:45 | Why menopause is not a diagnosis but a transition of identity18:46 – 22:00 | Reflections on burnout, balance, and rediscovering purpose22:01 – 26:30 | The sisterhood of medicine — community, empathy, and shared healing26:31 – 30:00 | What this means for women everywhere — redefining midlife wellnessIf you love the podcast, I'd be so grateful if you left me a review!

In today’s episode, we’ll be diving into the second common myth surrounding menopause: the idea that menopause is a destination rather than a journey. Many patients think of menopause as a specific point in time, but it's actually a continuum with various stages—perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. We'll break down what each of these phases entails and how symptoms can vary throughout this magical, mystical midlife journey. We'll also discuss common misconceptions and experiences, emphasizing that every woman's journey is unique. Whether you're dealing with worsening PMS, sleep disturbances, or other changes, understanding this spectrum can help you feel more empowered and knowledgeable. So stay tuned as we unravel the complexities of menopause and remind ourselves that it's all about embracing the journey, not the destination.
