546: You Swallow 6 Cups of Bacteria a Day: Oral-Gut Connection Linked to 57 Diseases with Dr. Elmira Shojai and Lora Hooper
Aug 18, 202651 min
Did you know you swallow about six cups of your own saliva every single day, and that saliva could be quietly feeding disease throughout your entire body? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Elmira Shojai and Lora Hooper, two women working at the cutting edge of something almost nobody in traditional dentistry ever talks about: your oral microbiome. I did a consult with them on my own mouth, and even though I feel amazing and have done so much work to clean up my health, my results shocked me. We go deep on why the mouth is the second largest microbiome in your body, why traditional dentistry cleans and fills without ever asking why the problem keeps coming back, and why killing every bit of bacteria with harsh mouthwash might actually be making things worse instead of better. If you've done everything right and still feel like your body is working against you, this conversation might hold the missing piece. Special offer for you on your own oral testing kit: https://get.theurbanmonk.com/oral#why-it-matters We Go Deep On: Why the oral microbiome is the second largest microbiome in the body, and why almost nobody tests it How swallowing your own saliva can reinfect your gut with harmful bacteria Why traditional dentistry fixes symptoms but ignores root cause The real reason killing 99.9% of bacteria in your mouth can backfire The three primary ways oral dysbiosis develops (imprinting, over-sterilizing, mouth breathing) The truth about root canals, and what actually determines if one becomes a problem Natalie's own root canal story and what her MPO bloodwork revealed The overlooked connection between oral bacteria and leaky gut Why plaque in the mouth can show up as plaque in the heart, brain, or joints What real testing and treatment for oral dysbiosis actually looks like, and why antibiotics alone don't work Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube Learn More About Elmira Shojai and Lora Hooper Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/lorahooper17 and https://www.instagram.com/egederi Website ➜ https://get.theurbanmonk.com/oral#why-it-matters Thank you to our show sponsors: TIMELINE:Timeline is offering 20% off your order!

545: GLP-1s, Protein, and the Truth About "Toning": A No-BS Fitness Q&A with Dr. Stephanie Estima
Aug 11, 20261h 15m
What if everything you've been told about "lifting heavy" is actually setting you up to get hurt instead of getting stronger? I sit down with Dr. Stephanie Estima, doctor of chiropractic, female metabolism expert, and creator of the Betty Body Method, to pull apart the fitness advice flooding your feed and replace it with what actually works for women in midlife. We start with the "eat more protein, lift heavier" noise online and dig into why that advice, without context, is nearly useless. Stephanie breaks down exactly how you know you're lifting heavy enough (hint: it has nothing to do with a specific number of pounds), why so many of us skipped straight past the strength foundation we needed in our 20s and 30s, and how that's showing up now in injuries and frustration. This episode will change how you think about every workout, every meal, and every wellness trend you scroll past. We Go Deep On: How to actually know you're lifting heavy enough (it has nothing to do with the number on the dumbbell) Why so many midlife women skipped the strength foundation they needed decades ago The Trendelenburg test and why 85-90% of back pain patients have weak glutes The direct link between glute strength and chronic low back pain My own disc rupture and disc replacement story, and what rebuilt my lower body Progressive overload without the injury risk, including rest periods that actually work VO2 max training and why cardio still matters after 40 Weighted vests, vibration plates, and step counts: what the research actually says Why "toning" isn't a real physiological process Rethinking protein without obsessive tracking An honest take on GLP-1 medications and what most protocols are missing Stephanie's simple, non-negotiable supplement list Why the fear of carbs (and honestly, fear of everything but protein) has gotten out of hand Letting go of "skinny" as the goal and redefining what a healthy body actually looks like Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube Learn More About Dr. Stephanie Estima Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/dr.stephanie.estima Website ➜ https://drstephanieestima.com/ Book ➜ The Betty Body: A Geeky Goddess' Guide to Intuitive Eating, Balanced Hormones, and Transformative Sex https://amzn.to/45CNOg5 Thank you to our show sponsors: TIMELINE:Timeline is offering 20% off your order!

544: The Real Reason Your Skin Aged Overnight in Menopause with Jennifer Scheinman
Aug 7, 20261h 6m
What if the reason your skincare stopped working has nothing to do with your products, and everything to do with your mitochondria? I sit down with Jennifer Scheinman, registered dietitian and senior manager of nutrition affairs at Timeline, to talk about the science most of us have never applied to our skin. We already know mitochondrial decline drives muscle loss, brain fog, and fatigue as we age. I go deep on why that exact same cellular decline is showing up on your face as wrinkles, sagging, thinning, and dullness, and why retinol and vitamin C alone are not enough to address it. I go deep on the surprising connection between estrogen and mitochondrial function, why so many of us wake up one day feeling like we do not recognize our own skin, and what is actually happening at the cellular level during that shift. I go deep on the controversial sun exposure conversation, the difference between natural and clean skincare, and the real research behind urolithin A, the molecule at the center of Timeline's new MitoPure skincare line. Jennifer walks us through exactly how mitophagy works, what the clinical data actually shows in women ages 47 to 65, and how to build a simplified routine without giving up the products you already love. If your skin has felt like it aged overnight, this conversation will change how you think about what it actually needs. We Go Deep On: Why mitochondrial decline shows up on your face before anywhere else The "reverse puberty" of menopausal skin Why retinol gets harder to tolerate as you age The estrogen-mitochondria connection nobody talks about Is sun exposure good or bad? The Goldilocks answer Why "too fit" can actually age your face faster What mitophagy is and why it matters for your skin Natural vs. clean vs. toxic: cutting through the noise The real research behind urolithin A and MitoPure How to simplify your skincare routine without losing results Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube Learn More About Jennifer Scheinman Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/timeline_longevity Website ➜ https:// timeline.com/NATALIEJILL Thank you to our show sponsors: QUANTUM UPGRADE: Try Quantum Upgrade completely free for 15 days—no credit card required.

543: Is Adrenal Fatigue a Real Diagnosis? A Doctor Explains with Dr. Allan Bacon
Aug 4, 20261h 49m
Is adrenal fatigue even real, or have we all been chasing the wrong diagnosis? I sat down with Dr. Allan Bacon, a dentist turned nutrition and powerlifting coach who has built his career sitting in the middle ground between conventional medicine and the wellness world, calling out both sides when the science says they've gotten it wrong. And one of the most eye opening parts of this conversation was about adrenal fatigue, a term so many of us have used to describe our own exhaustion. Dr. Bacon walked me through why it isn't actually a recognized medical diagnosis, what's really going on in our bodies when we feel that drained, and why the label matters so much for finding something that actually helps. We also get into the placebo effect, the truth about peptides like BPC-157, and what the research really says about our metabolism in midlife. We Go Deep On: Why "adrenal fatigue" isn't an actual medical diagnosis, and what it means that our adrenals are usually functioning just fine The real reason we feel that drained, and why "stress and burnout" is a more accurate description than adrenal fatigue What actually helps when we're running on empty, including specific, research backed options like glycine and magnesium Why the placebo effect showed up as a 22 pound strength jump in trained powerlifters, and what that means for how we think about our own bodies What the research does and doesn't say about BPC-157 and peptides A landmark study showing metabolism doesn't actually change from age 20 to 60, and what that means for the way we've been told to think about midlife Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube Learn More About Dr. Allan Bacon Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/drallanbacon Website ➜ https://mauiathletics.com/ Thank you to our show sponsors: TIMELINE: Timeline is offering 20% off your order of Mitopure!

Use code NATALIEJILL at checkout on https://quantumupgrade.io/start What if the headache you can't explain, the brain fog that won't lift, or the exhaustion no lab test can find has been sitting in the walls of your own home this whole time? This week Natalie sits down with Dr. Henz, a neuroscientist and EEG researcher, and Philipp Von Holtzendorff-Fehling, a former T-Mobile executive turned tech founder, for a conversation that goes places most health podcasts never go. Dr. Henz shares her own story of getting mysteriously ill in a tech-filled office, including a decade-long fertility struggle doctors couldn't explain, and how she eventually connected it to the invisible electromagnetic fields surrounding her every day. Philipp pulls back the curtain on his years inside the telecom industry, why he walked away from a corporate career to dig into this question full time, and what his team found after testing dozens of products claiming to protect you from EMF exposure (spoiler: most of them do nothing, and a couple made things worse). You'll hear about the internal lab research Dr. Henz and Philipp have compiled using high-density EEG technology, what happens to brain wave activity during something as simple as a phone call, and their perspective on why getting closer to nature and natural frequencies may matter more than we think. This one will change how you think about your phone, your WiFi router, and the space you sleep in tonight. WE GO DEEP ON: Dr. Henz's personal health crisis and the invisible cause behind it Why your body has no built-in sensor for electromagnetic exposure What high-density EEG reveals about brain activity and stress frequencies Philipp's journey from T-Mobile executive to EMF researcher The internal lab data behind Quantum Upgrade's technology What happened when they tested 70+ EMF "protection" products Simple, low-effort shifts you can make starting tonight Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube Episode Links: See Natalie's brain scan results https://www.midlifeconversations.com/nataliejillresults/ Leela Quantum: Get 10% off your first Leela Quantum order with the code NatalieJill at checkout at https://midlifeconversations.com/leela Quantum Upgrade: Try Quantum Upgrade completely free for 15 days—no credit card required.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities.

Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.

You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
