When I first interviewed Dr. Wendy Warner, she planted a seed in my mind that completely changed how I look at bone health. She questioned the reliability of the DEXA scan — and that moment shifted everything for me. In this episode, we dive deep into what went wrong in women’s bone health over the past 30 years. And it starts with the DEXA scan.

This episode is personal. I’m calling it The Bad Business of Osteoporosis — not bad as in evil, but bad as in broken. Misguided. A system where women are paying the price.

In Part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Nick Birch, we go deeper — not just into REMS technology, but into something even more important: informed consent, medical blind spots, and what true bone health really requires.

In this powerful Part 1 conversation on the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Nick Birch, a former spinal surgeon from the UK who has become a strong advocate for rethinking how we assess and manage bone health.

In this episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, I had a fascinating and unexpected conversation with my guest, Chris Burres — a scientist, entrepreneur, and yes, a stand-up comedian. Chris brings a rare combination of deep scientific knowledge and the ability to explain complex concepts in a way that actually makes sense.

Osteoporosis is not an inevitable disease of aging. It is not simply a calcium deficiency. It is a multi-system, lifestyle-driven, inflammatory and metabolic condition — and bone loss doesn’t start in the bones. It starts everywhere else in the body.

In this episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, I welcomed back one of my most trusted and respected guests, Dr. Lorraine Maita. She’s known as the hormone harmonizer and detoxifier, and for good reason. With over 40 years of clinical experience, she brings clarity to a topic that feels increasingly confusing for women: bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).

Travel is something many of us look forward to — especially as we move into retirement years and finally have the time and freedom to explore. But what most women don’t realize is that travel itself is a physiological stressor, and stress directly affects bone health.

This is a solo episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, and I wanted to take this opportunity to speak directly to you — woman to woman — about something I see every single day in my work: fear-based bone health.

One of the biggest reasons women feel confused, overwhelmed, and powerless after an osteoporosis or osteopenia diagnosis is that they’re given very little context. A scan. A number. A prescription. And almost no guidance on what’s actually happening inside their bodies.
