Testosterone for women over 40 is the conversation almost no doctor will start with you, so I'm starting it.
These are the ten things I wish I'd known about testosterone before I ever asked a doctor for it, from the magic number every doctor chases that doesn't exist, to the one test almost all of them run wrong, to the exact words to say at your appointment so nobody laughs you out of the office again.

This one is for every woman who's been told her exhaustion, her low libido, and her missing spark are just her age. I'm a skincare founder and a clinical nutritionist, and I've spent $1.3 million figuring out what actually works on a woman's body over 40, hormones included.
First I get into what testosterone actually did for me, which I found out the hard way when I accidentally ran out for two weeks, why you are not too young to be having this conversation, and why so many women get told their labs are "normal" while they feel nothing like themselves.
Then I walk through the form they don't warn you about, the doctor who told my friend to just be grateful her husband still finds her attractive, why it's rarely just testosterone, and the exact playbook I'd use to walk into an appointment and not get dismissed.

What is I'd Like To Thank Myself ?
We thank everyone else for our success... friends, team, mentors. But when’s the last time you thanked the only person who actually dragged you through hell and back?
YourSELF.
This show is my love letter to the version of you who doesn’t get enough credit. The you who kept going when it would’ve been easier to quit.
I’m pulling back the curtain on what it actually looks like to be 48, building a skincare company, navigating perimenopause, raising a teenager, and refusing to become invisible.
The stuff nobody talks about after 40. And how I’m rewriting all of it.
Sometimes it’s just me. Sometimes it’s founders, creatives, and icons who’ve rewritten everything too. Always, it’s the raw truth.
Nothing filtered. Nothing softened. Nothing for show. Just the truth... and a drink.
Every episode ends the same way: we raise a glass and say the thing most people are too humble to admit: I’d like to thank mySELF.
