I'm 49, I'm perimenopausal, and these are the hormones I use every single day to stay hot as fuck through the whole thing. Plus the practices that keep them working, and the one peptide I take every single morning... and how I take it is probably not what you think.

Things I Mentioned:
This one is for every woman who's been told her hormone levels are "normal for your age" while she's lying awake at 3 a.m. wondering where the old her went. I was gaslit for over five years before I started hormone replacement therapy. I read my own labs, half the contacts in my phone are doctors, I've been a clinical nutritionist coaching health professionals for over 20 years... and I'm still dialing this in.
First, I get into the hormone I rub on in 15 seconds every morning, the one that finally got me sleeping through 3 a.m. again, and the meeting full of businesswomen where it felt like somebody set the room on fire. Then the lab result I swore had to be somebody else's (it wasn't), what changes if you're losing weight right now, and the one women don't bring up at brunch.
Then I walk through the sneaky face trick I wish I'd known about 10 years ago, how I keep score at home (sorry, Zak), what Mary asked me on her massage table that I still can't shake, the labs I make sure get run every three months, and the peptide I take every single morning. What it's actually for might surprise you.

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.
