• Naomi Watts: What I Wish I Knew In My 30s

  You’ve seen her on screen for decades, but what you might not know is that Naomi Watts was told by Hollywood she’d be “done” by 40 and at 36, while her career was taking off, she was already in perimenopause. For years, she carried her symptoms in silence, afraid that talking about menopause would end her career. Today, Naomi is rewriting the script. She’s built Stripes, a brand dedicated to women in midlife, and is changing how Hollywood, and the world, talks about aging, identity, and reinvention. In this episode, you’ll learn: - The shock of being told you’re “close to menopause” in your 30s - Why silence and stigma kept Naomi from sharing her struggles for years - How she built a company that puts menopause front and center - The surprising conversations happening on Hollywood sets right now - Why love, confidence, and purpose often come later in life If you’ve ever felt invisible, “too old,” or unsure of what comes next, this conversation will leave you seen, validated, and inspired to own your story.

• Bobbi Brown: How to Start Over When It Feels Impossible

  Reinvention, identity loss, and personal growth aren’t just themes in Bobbi Brown’s story, they define it. Bobbi Brown, the legendary makeup artist and entrepreneur, described the moment everything she had built was suddenly gone. In an unexpected twist of midlife reinvention, she faced the loss of her identity, proving that even icons must confront the need for personal reinvention and bold career pivots. For years, her name was everywhere, but behind the success, she was grieving the loss of who she thought she was and wondering how to reclaim her authentic self without it. Instead of staying stuck, Bobbi chose career reinvention. She found the courage to begin again, to take all the lessons from one life chapter and build something new on her own terms. Today, with Jones Road Beauty, she embodies women empowerment and shows us that reinventing yourself after 40 can be the most powerful act of all. In this episode, you’ll learn: - What it feels like to lose a piece of your identity and how to find your authentic self again - The courage it takes to start over when you feel like the rug’s been pulled out from under you - How rejection became Bobbi’s turning point for life reinvention - The mindset shifts that helped her rebuild with Jones Road Beauty - Why confidence is the foundation for navigating career pivots and moving forward stronger If you’ve ever felt knocked down, questioned your worth, or wondered how to begin again, Bobbi’s story will show you that reinventing yourself isn’t just possible, it can be the most powerful chapter of your life.

• The Menopause Heart Doctor Reveals the 3 Warning Signs Doctors Dismiss

  Heart disease is the number one killer of women, yet most of us still think of it as a “man’s disease.” Symptoms like fatigue, jaw pain, nausea, or palpitations are too often brushed off as stress, anxiety, or just “normal aging.” The result? Women wait longer to get care, and their first heart attack is more likely to be fatal. Dr. Jayne Morgan, leading cardiologist and researcher, joins Tamsen to explain the real connection between menopause and cardiovascular risk, and why it’s time for women to take their symptoms seriously. In this episode, you’ll learn: - The silent signs of heart disease that women often miss or dismiss - Why menopause and perimenopause dramatically increase heart risk - How hot flashes, palpitations, and even itchy ears can be red flags - What 37 minutes of delay in care means for women’s survival - The lifestyle shifts and medical conversations that actually protect your heart If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s hormones, stress, or something more, this conversation will help you connect the dots, advocate for yourself, and protect your health before it’s too late.

• Dr. Mary Claire Haver: The Perimenopause Symptoms No One Warned You About

  Maybe you’ve noticed you don’t feel like yourself anymore. The brain fog, mood swings, weight gain and exhaustion creep in slowly, and most women never realize these symptoms can start as early as their late 30s. Too often, they’re dismissed as stress, depression, or just part of getting older. But they’re not, they’re signs of perimenopause. Dr. Mary Claire Haver, leading OB/GYN, bestselling author of The New Menopause and the upcoming book The New Perimenopause, joins me to explain what’s really happening in this overlooked stage of life and why it matters for every woman’s long-term health. In this episode, you’ll learn: - Why so many women miss the early signs of perimenopause - The science behind hormonal chaos and how it impacts your brain, heart, bones, and metabolism - The real cost of being told to “tough it out,” from osteoporosis to dementia - Which symptoms to watch for (beyond hot flashes) and why blood tests often don’t give answers - The tools and mindset shifts that help you feel like yourself again If you’ve ever felt “off” and wondered if it’s you, stress, or something deeper, this conversation will give you answers, validation, and a way forward.

• ADHD or Perimenopause? The Signs You’ve Been Missing

  ADHD in women has been invisible for decades. The overwhelm, the racing thoughts, the feeling that everything is urgent are often dismissed as anxiety, depression, or just “being busy.” But they’re not character flaws, they’re signs of something deeper. In this episode, Shanna Pearson, founder of Expert ADHD Coaching and author of Invisible ADHD, shares why so many women are only being diagnosed later in life, how perimenopause and menopause hormones intensify symptoms, and the real strategies that help women regain control. They talk about: - Why ADHD in women often gets misdiagnosed as anxiety or depression - How estrogen and dopamine shifts in midlife affect focus and regulation - A simple way to cut through overwhelm by narrowing your focus - Reset tools, from physical state changes to writing exercises,  that stop spirals in their tracks - How ADHD impacts confidence, relationships, and careers, and what to do about it Shanna also shares the positives often overlooked, including how hyperfocus can be harnessed in the right environments and why the right tools, not just medication, can transform daily life. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s ADHD, menopause, or just modern life, this conversation will help you see yourself more clearly and give you solutions you can use right away.
