  • The Teen Mental Health Crisis: What Technology Is Really Doing to Our Kids
    Jan 20 2026
    The teen mental health crisis can no longer be ignored. Anxiety, depression, attention issues, and suicidal ideation are rising—and the science is increasingly clear about the role screens are playing in reshaping our kids’ brains. As we continue to revisit our most talked-about conversations from 2025, this remains one of the most shared and downloaded. In this episode, I’m joined by Sissy Goff, therapist and Executive Director of Daystar Counseling, and Niro Feliciano, cognitive psychotherapist, wife, and mom of four. Together, we break down how technology and algorithms hijack neurochemistry, create unhealthy dopamine cycles, and impact attention, sleep, and emotional regulation. We also talk about what parents can do—how to set healthy boundaries, what warning signs to watch for, and why there is real reason for hope. I also share why I’m choosing not to give my youngest a phone—and why just because you did it with one child doesn’t mean you have to do it again. This is an empowering, practical conversation for anyone raising kids in a world that never logs off. Life Happens. Let’s Talk About It. Listen in to learn more: [4:13] Gender Differences & Social Media Effects [7:06] Developmental Setbacks from Tech and Pandemic [12:43] Dopamine Deficit and Screen Time [27:44] Parental Strategies and Boundaries In this episode, we are diving into how anxiety presents differently for boys and girls, the impact of technology on teen social and emotional development, the correlation between teen mental health issues and technology, what technology and social media are doing to teen brains, signs and symptoms of mental health concerns in teens, research on dopamine and brain chemistry, navigating conversations around social media and phones with teens, making changes to how you handle phones and social media within your family, and healthy boundaries for social media and technology.

  • PERIMENOPAUSE: When The Real Change Begins
    Jan 13 2026
    January is our “greatest hits” month—and this conversation with Dr. Jen Ashton and Aarti Sequeira remains one of the most shared and talked-about episodes of 2025. Perimenopause is messy, misunderstood, and wildly under-discussed—even though it can last a decade or more and affect nearly every system in the body. I’ve been going through it for 12 years…and counting! In this episode, we get real about what perimenopause actually looks like in real life: brain fog, sleep disruption, rage, hormone chaos, and that unsettling feeling of “I don’t feel like myself anymore.” Dr. Jen explains why the most significant changes happen during perimenopause—not after menopause—and why women deserve better information, better research, and better care. We also explore why this season can be both destabilizing and deeply empowering. It’s not about fear. It’s about reclaiming agency in a phase of life that too often goes unexplained. If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this normal?” or “Why didn’t anyone tell me about this?”—this conversation is for you. Life Happens. Let’s Talk About It. Listen in to learn more : [0:00:57] - Changing Perceptions of Perimenopause [0:01:05] - Consistency and the Connectivity Challenge [0:06:36] - Hormonal Changes During Perimenopause [0:12:03] - Gender Equity and Research Funding [0:22:47] - Challenging Perimenopause Victim Narratives Listen to the entire Perimenopause Series here: Ep 1 Perimenopause: The real change Ep 2 Perimenopause: How to prepare Ep 3 Perimenopause: What no one is saying about GLP-1’s Ep 4 Perimenopause: Is Testosterone the game-changer women need Ep 5 Perimenopause: Why ages 45-50 are so risky for women and how to get help In this episode, we are diving into honest conversations about perimenopause, three major changes a woman goes through in her lifetime, why the changes in perimenopause feel so monumental, current research on women’s health, the pros and cons of western medicine and the American healthcare system, advocating for ourselves, and taking responsibility for our own health.

    Jan 6 2026
    What if midlife isn’t a slow fade into invisibility, but the most confident, ridiculous, and joyful chapter yet? All month long in January, we’re revisiting the best of our most downloaded, most shared, and most talked-about conversations from 2025—and this episode is a true greatest hit. In this laugh-out-loud conversation, I’m talking with the wildly relatable Peaches of Peaches and Diesel 104, the Instagram phenom who’s turned Gen X midlife into must-watch comedy.
