Sometimes, we're blessed with opportunities to make something new and fun and amazing. This show has been nothing short of spectacular for me, from my lovely guests and our discussions that have changed areas of my practice and my life, to hearing from each and every one of you, my Listener Darlings. And now, it's time for a break. Not Right Now. There's hopefully more time ahead for me to come back and pick this up. Maybe in the same iteration, maybe with a co-host, maybe an entirely new concept. Who's to say? For now, I send my heartiest and truest THANK YOU to every single one of you who had any part in making this show what it has been. It's not, "Good bye." It's, "See you later!" Thanks to our sponsors!

This week’s guest was fed to be by the Instagram algorithm. In part, I imagine, because I used to live in the KC area and we share a similar demographic. But for sure because the universe knew I, and by extension y’all, needed to hear her message: Stop Accepting What You Hate. While we do absolutely believe people can change - if they want to - we’ve both seen it enough to know change can’t happen because one partner is asking for it. So, what happens when you’ve realized your partner doesn’t want to change? Listen to Abby and me discuss this and more! Welcome back to The Perinatal Podcast! Find Abby!

This week on The Perinatal Podcast, I’m joined by my #Team85 sister, Lauren Tetenbaum, to talk about her new book Millennial Menopause: Preparing for Perimenopause, Menopause, and Life’s Next Period. We dive into the realities of this major life shift—the curiosity it requires, the b******t we’ve been taught about “not being a bother,” and why treating symptoms (not just the diagnosis) matters. From rage and irritability to sleep struggles and identity shifts, we explore how to build your support squad, practice self-compassion, and remember: perimenopause is not your new identity.

This week, we venture into the world of Romantasy! Saoirse Morrigan started to write in 2022 after she had her third baby and hasn’t stopped since. She is an Irish author of spicy Romantasy inspired by the darker side of Irish folklore, fairytales and mythology. She is passionate about telling culturally authentic stories with women and Romance at their core. She is on the Board of Directors of the Romantic Novelists’ Association. Saoirse is working with her agent to bring her debut Romantasy to publication so watch this space. When not world-building or wrangling her kids, she’s probably on Instagram talking about writing with a young family or the books she’s reading. She is also a dentist but would rather be writing about falling in love in fantastical worlds. Catch up Saoirse on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/saoirse_morrigan/ Thanks to our sponsors!

This week on The Perinatal Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Brett Hill of Xperience Life Chiropractic. If you've been a Listener Darling for a while, you KNOW how much I struggle with my own posture, so I couldn't resist having this discussion with Dr. Brett for my own benefit as much as y'all's! We dig into chiropractic neurology, his experience in supporting people through vertigo, how small changes and choices can impact our nervous system and mental health, and so much more. And we most definitely discuss Tech Neck, how the body adapts - sometimes in counterproductive ways, the gut-brain connection, the list truly goes on! Additionally, Dr. Hill has offered up access to his Posture Program to virtually assess your posture. Be sure to check out that link below! Welcome back to The Perinatal Podcast! Find Dr. Brett! Posture Analysis: https://www.yourpostureprogram.com/podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/xperiencelifechiro/ Dr. Brett Hill is an innovative chiropractor, entrepreneur, and speaker dedicated to transforming the way people understand posture, movement, and brain health. Starting with just a 200 square foot space, no patients, and four young children, he grew his practice from the ground up. Now it has become a successful health clinic called Xperience Life Chiropractic. As the creator of YourPostureProgram.com, he has pioneered an online solution that mirrors the effectiveness of his in-clinic treatments, allowing people to correct their posture, optimize brain function, and improve movement from the comfort of their homes. With a passion for educating families, Dr. Hill speaks on the profound impact of screen usage, gaming and social media on brain development and physical health. He provides actionable guidelines for parents and youth, helping them navigate technology use in a way that fosters healthy habits and improved posture. Whether working with patients in clinic or guiding clients online through effective posture correction and tech management, Dr. Brett is redefining how people achieve lasting health.

"Sometimes, I wonder if body autonomy is real." On episode 110 of The Perinatal Podcast, Deb Benfield and I discuss curiosity, compassion, and levity in the aging experience. Deb digs deep into the science behind why our bodies are not meant to lose weight, explores the balance of accountability and self-compassion, and she gives me some of the most fantastic visualizations I have never heard and most definitely will carry on with me. Flap flap flap glide, y'all. Deb Benfield is a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist with over 40 years of experience helping people heal their relationship with food, movement, and their bodies. She’s the author of Unapologetic Aging, out in December 2025, and a passionate advocate for body liberation and anti-ageism. Deb’s work centers vitality—not restriction—and supports women in midlife and beyond in feeling confident, comfortable, and at home in their bodies. She helps her clients break free from diet culture and ageist messaging, so they can live with more clarity, self-trust, and freedom. Find Deb!
