  • Ep #185: Thyroid Problems in Women: Signs, Symptoms, and Managing PCOS
    Mar 20 2026

    So many symptoms in perimenopause and menopause can be traced back to hormones, including sex hormones and the thyroid. In this episode, we take a deep dive into thyroid health and PCOS, and we touch on bone health. Andrea Donsky, nutritionist, published menopause researcher, menopause educator, author of Nourishing Menopause, and co-founder of wearemorphus.com, interviews with Dr. Damola Aje, a board-certified endocrinologist who specializes in PCOS, thyroid disorders, and menopause.

    Topics:

    • Thyroid Problems in Women - Thyroid problems in women can show up as fatigue, weight changes, feeling cold, dry skin, and low energy, especially during perimenopause and menopause. These symptoms are often mistaken for hormonal changes, which is why comprehensive thyroid testing beyond TSH is important.
    • PCOS in Perimenopause and Menopause - PCOS in perimenopause and menopause remains a lifelong metabolic and hormonal condition, often linked to androgen imbalance, acne, hair thinning, and facial hair. Lean PCOS is also common and frequently overlooked.
    • Insulin Resistance in Midlife Women - Insulin resistance in perimenopause and menopause is a key driver of PCOS, contributing to weight gain, stubborn belly fat, blood sugar imbalance, and metabolic dysfunction. Exercise supports glucose control and helps preserve muscle mass during aging.
    • Hormonal Imbalance Symptoms in Women - Symptoms like brain fog, anxiety, fatigue, poor sleep, and heart palpitations can overlap between thyroid disorders, PCOS, and menopause, making hormonal imbalance in women harder to identify and often dismissed.
    • Menopause Treatment and Hormone Support Options - Menopause treatment options may include hormone replacement therapy for hot flashes and night sweats, along with bone health support and proactive testing. Self-advocacy is key to getting proper diagnosis and care.

  • Ep #184: Stressed? Try "Unmeditation" with Lisa Borden
    Mar 13 2026

    Our Morphus research shows that 66% of perimenopausal and menopausal women feel more stressed and less able to cope with daily pressures than they did before entering this stage of life.

    In this episode, Andrea Donsky, nutritionist, published menopause researcher, menopause educator, author, and co-founder of wearemorphus.com sits down with mentor Lisa Borden. Lisa is a business development consultant and founder of Borden Communications + Design Inc. She’s also an author, speaker, and creator of The Wellness Intelligence Collective.

    They discuss how to reframe our lives by ditching rigid rules and finding curiosity-driven solutions for purpose, connection, and kindness.

      A fresh way to think about the so-called “empty nest,” as children move in and out of our lives and create space for you to reconnect with yourself.
    • The Freedom of Unmeditation
      Peace doesn't require a lotus pose or perfect stillness. Presence and breath connection can happen while lying down, walking, or moving through daily life.
    • Self-Care Snacks
      Simple, doable two-minute practices, from unmeditation to gentle movement, can help regulate your nervous system and bring more calm into your day.
    • Spotting Healthwashing
      How to look beyond polished marketing and identify products that truly prioritize wellness, integrity, and quality.
    • Empathy Economics
      Lisa’s approach to conscious consumerism, rooted in understanding the story, values, and impact behind the products we choose.
    • Building Community Through The Wellness Intelligence Collective (TWIC)
      Creating meaningful connection, shared learning, and support for women seeking a more informed wellness journey.
    • The Power of Coopetition
      Why supporting, celebrating, and elevating other women creates stronger businesses, stronger communities, and greater collective impact.
    • A Beginner’s Mindset
      Being willing to learn, unlearn, and start where you are is often the first step toward meaningful change in your health and your life.
