What if the exhaustion, mood swings, or brain fog you’ve been brushing off as “just getting older” were actually something your doctor never told you about? What if you could reclaim your energy, clarity, and joy in the years you thought you’d be slowing down?
This week’s episode is one of those conversations that makes you want to take notes, text your girlfriends, and march straight into your next doctor’s appointment with a list of questions.
We sat down with our dear friend and women’s health advocate, Dr. Christina Kintop—a fourth-generation chiropractor, nutrition counselor, and truth-teller about menopause—to talk about the real symptoms, the overlooked signs, and why so many women feel invisible in the medical system during this chapter of life.
From our first encounters with Chrissy—whether working side-by-side at weddings or connecting in yoga class—we’ve known her as someone who listens deeply and sees the whole person. Today, she brings that same presence and wisdom to a topic that impacts half the population, yet is still underfunded, under-researched, and under-discussed.

Our Favorite Quotes
“Common does not mean normal. Just because it’s happening to a lot of women doesn’t mean you have to live with it.”
“I can’t pretend to have all the answers—but I can listen, and we can figure it out together.”
“Where money goes, attention flows—and finally, women’s health is getting some.”
“Your drive brought you this far. Now it’s time to support your body so it can carry you forward.”
