The holidays are their own kind of crazy: family, crowds, difficult memories and it can be hard to find the calm.
On this week's episode, we talk to author Brigid Delaney about finding Ataraxia (sense of calm) when the external world feels chaotic. Brigid's new book is called REASONS NOT TO WORRY: How to Be Stoic in Chaotic Times. She references stoicism as a practice where we can choose to control our reactions and character and release control of all else.

Ozempic? Wegovy? Zepbound? Menopausal women are being bombarded with new weight loss medications as the possible answer to menopause weight gain.
But, are they the right answer?
We went straight to the source and spoke with Dr. Daniela Hurtado. Dr. Hurtado is a physician and scientist and she is part of the Mayo Clinic's Precision Medicine for Obesity Program. She explains why weight gain is happening to midlife women, a variety of different options that may help and the "skinny" on these medications.
As always, talk to your doctor about your personal journey before making any decisions.
