  Why your skin ages faster in menopause and what to do about it

  Aug 17, 202646 min

  You've done the retinol. You've done the sunscreen. So why does your skin still look like it's aging faster than it should? Dr. Tamara Beckford sits down with dermatologist Dr. Sarolta Szabo to explain what's actually happening underneath your skin during perimenopause and menopause, and it starts a lot earlier than you'd think. They get into why muscle and bone loss quietly reshape your face from the inside, why even the best cosmetic treatments can fail when a few key things go unaddressed, and what's genuinely worth trying versus what's just marketing. If you've ever looked in the mirror and felt like your face changed overnight, this conversation explains why.

  Why your joints hurt more now and what to do about it

  Aug 10, 202628 min

  Achy shoulder. Stiff hips. Knees that just don't move like they used to. If your doctor called it aging and handed you ibuprofen, that's not the entire story. In this episode, Dr. Tamara Beckford breaks down what's actually happening in your joints during perimenopause and menopause, why frozen shoulder and bursitis show up out of nowhere, and how declining estrogen quietly drives inflammation, cartilage stiffness, and muscle loss. She also walks through the MEND method, a simple framework to move with purpose, eat to lower inflammation, normalize your hormones, and get a plan built for you. You are not falling apart. Your body is asking for support, and this episode tells you exactly where to start. Resources & Next Steps: Tired of being dismissed and rushed?

  Why You're So Anxious During Perimenopause

  Aug 3, 202637 min

  You haven't changed jobs. Nothing's wrong at home. Your kids are fine. And you still feel anxious in a way you can't explain. A listener wrote to me about crying in a Target parking lot for 20 minutes because she couldn't find her keys. She's not a crier. That's what scared her. In this episode, I get into what's actually happening in your brain during perimenopause and why this can hit you for the first time in your 40s, even if you've never struggled with anxiety before. I also talk about the explanations you've probably already been handed, and why they might only be part of the picture. If you've been wondering whether something is actually wrong with you, this conversation might change how you think about it. Not sure where to start?

  Episode #27

  A nurse's menopause secret, 70 years later.

  Jul 27, 202622 min

  She wasn't feeling well. She went to the doctor. She told him exactly how she felt. He didn't give her anything. The next thing my 91-year-old Aunt Verna heard, that patient had gone out into the street, overwhelmed by heat she couldn't explain. She was taken to a mental hospital. Aunt Verna never saw her again. That story has stayed with her since her nursing career decades ago. It's part of why she wanted to sit down with me and talk about her own menopause, one that started with the same overwhelming heat, and a doctor who called it "just a change." In this conversation, Aunt Verna talks about the fear of feeling like you're losing your mind, why hormone replacement therapy became something doctors were afraid to prescribe for years, and what she wishes every woman knew before her next appointment.
