In this solo episode, Debi Robinson speaks directly to women who have been diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis and left feeling afraid, fragile, or unsure how to move forward.

Debi explores how osteoporosis became a widespread diagnosis, why the DEXA scan does not tell the full story about fracture risk, and how fear itself can quietly accelerate bone loss. She challenges the idea that a number on a scan defines your future and offers a calmer, more empowering perspective on bone health.

This episode is not about rejecting medicine or ignoring data — it’s about placing information in context, reclaiming trust in your body, and understanding how lifestyle, stress, digestion, movement, and nervous system health truly influence your bones.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or disempowered by a bone health diagnosis, this episode is for you.

Debi’s Takeaway

Osteoporosis does not define you.

A scan does not own you.

Fear does not protect you.

Your bones are living tissue, responding every day to how you eat, move, manage stress, and live your life. When you replace fear with education and trust your body again, your bones respond.

You are not fragile. You are capable — and your bone health journey belongs to you.
