SHE2.0Why the truth hurt and how it led me to count calories - properly this time!In advance of this episode, I sent Sara Frenza, published fitness model, writer, nutrition & body transformation coach and the owner of Sara Frenza Fitness and Nutrition, my weekly food journal and exercise log.

SHE2.0Aging Powerfully: Changing the Narrative on Life's JourneyThis episode of Girl with a Pearl dives into the transformative power of aging with purpose.

SHE2.0Some 'pearls of wisdom' I learned the hard wayToday's episode is starring me, Jacquie Court. I have shared so many stories from experts and amazing women but I've never really shared my own. In fact, my story is the reason I started She2.0 because I didn't want anyone else to suffer. From our first period to our last, we need support, education and resources. However, that was not my experience - during my period, pregnancies or menopause. Today I'm sharing a few things I learned along my journey and I'm busting a few myths I'm tired of women hearing. Tune in!2024-10-3126 min
SHE2.0What happens when your doctor dismisses you?Stop me if you’ve heard this before. A woman walks into her doctor’s office and tells him she thinks she’s having ‘symptoms’. He dismisses her and says one of many things. A. It’s all in your head. B. Well you’re at that age or C. You just need to get more exercise? So many women complain of having their concerns dismissed by their healthcare practitioners. Not only is this extremely frustrating and disrespectful, it can also lead to more serious health issues. Many women feel unprepared and unarmed when it comes to advocating for their own heal...2024-10-0337 min

SHE2.0Changing the narrative around midlife and menopauseAs a woman I can’t say how great it is to hear menopause openly discussed in my family, friend groups, media, and entertainment. We should be talking about it. It’s such an important transition in a woman’s life so why hide it? However, the tone around menopause still needs some work! The way I hear it discussed would make any woman put the brakes on. Who is going to embrace vaginal dryness, brain fog and hot flashes with open arms? There is more to menopause than mood swings. The way we talk about menopause sets t...2024-03-2847 min

SHE2.0Seasonal Affective Disorder - what you should knowAs winter settles in, so does Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) in the workplace.

Whether you, yourself suffer from SAD or you know someone who does, it’s important to understand what it is and to find treatable solutions to allow us to cope or help others who might need support. In this episode, I’m joined by Dr...2024-02-0122 min
SHE2.0Are you too old to wear this?I’m a personal believer that you dress for your style and your energy - not your ‘age’. What does age-related style look like, anyway? Imagine being confined to a certain wardrobe because you fall into a specific age group? How limiting! And where is the self-expression? I click away from articles that talk about how to dress ‘for your age. or how to style your hair ‘for your age’. Time to throw away those old, ageist attitudes and find our fashion flair. To tell us how to seek out our style is personal wardrobe stylist, Sca...2024-01-1840 min
SHE2.0Ready to ring in 2024 with some good, clean fun? If anyone loves their wine, it’s me! I don’t drink liquor or beer, but I am a huge sucker for a Californian Cab Sav. I love the flavour and I love the warm feeling I get in my belly after a few sips. It makes me feel calm, peaceful, and relaxed. Even when I don’t want a glass, I am easily swayed when others around me are enjoying a glass and I inevitably give in and succumb to a full-bodied, jammy glass of heaven. I’m also post-menopausal and still suffer from hot flashes and weigh...2024-01-041h 12

SHE2.0What you need to know about Intermittent Fasting For many years I’ve struggled to find the best fitness routine, the best food choices, the best way to feel better. This journey began before I even realized I was in perimenopause. As I entered post-menopause, I started to see what people were talking about. Things were changing. More to the point – things were getting tighter. Snug. Ugh. I’ve explored so many ways to feel better and lose this stubborn weight but it’s still a challenge. I tried intermittent fasting, and it did work. However, I started to hear conflicting reports on whether it...2023-10-051h 06

SHE2.0Girl Power - a good thing or a toxic thing? The other week I scrolled through one of my favourite newsletters and came across an image of Kate and Meghan. I am so over the royal family and their war. And just as I was about to carry on, the headline hit me. “The ugly truth about girl power’. Wow. I always thought girl power was a good thing. So how does this relate to aging and menopause? As I read quite a few articles online about menopause and how the author/journalist felt about the experience, I expected to read words of support and encour...2023-03-3038 min
SHE2.0Is there help for thinning and aging hair? You bet!Isn’t it amazing how a little loss of estrogen can cause a ton of fuss in our bodies?

SHE2.0Libido MIA? We can help with that!When it comes to the way we think about our sex life, have we got it all wrong? Let's be honest, your libido is decreasing thanks to peri/menopause and you're wondering if you're ever going to get back in the sexy saddle.

SHE2.0Keeping it hot & spicy after 40. Yes, it's possibleI have recently been sharing the stage with author and pharmacist Irene Hogan. We’ve spoken together at a few shows on the topic of Sexy after 40. Once we’re done, I simply move aside and let Irene answer the questions that our conversation raises for so many women (and some men, too!) Irene has so much insightful information to share about sex and things down ‘there’. She is proof that we don’t know what we don’t know – and what we don’t know can be dangerous. She even supports my belief that if you don’t use it, you could l...2022-11-2435 min
SHE2.0Not everyone loves a surpriseFor the past couple of years, we’ve talked all about perimenopause as the runway to menopause. This is the opportunity for us to acclimatize our bodies and brains for what comes next. But imagine not having that lead time? Imagine being told you’re going to skip it all together and head straight into menopause by the time you wake up tomorrow or the next day? Most women that go into post-surgical or post-treatment menopause report feeling completely overwhelmed and completely under educated or informed. This can lead to a lot of stress adding to t...2022-11-1036 min

SHE2.0Menopause in the workplaceDid you know that 1 in 10 women leave their jobs because of menopause? Just when we're at the pinnacle of our careers, the hotflashes and brain fog come in to sabotage our success. We look at our younger, fertile colleagues who experience similar symptoms but because of their fertile status, their symptoms are 'adorable'. They get 'baby brain' and we get fired. Doesn't seem fair. Not only are companies treating women with discrimination when they don't support them during menopause, they are losing quality talent. Women in their menopausal years bring a wealth of expertise and experience to t...2022-10-1344 min
SHE2.0The Black Girl's Guide to Surviving MenopauseMenopause is a confusing and alienating time for most of us. We don't know whether we're coming or going and we can't seem to get the information and support we need. Now, imagine going through that same frustration but not as a white woman, but as a black woman? Just the colour of a woman's skin can change her experience with her symptoms and the support she receives. This inequity can be very harmful for women of colour. Omisade Burney-Scott, the founder of Black Girl's Guide to Surviving Menopause joins me to talk about the jo...2022-09-2955 min

SHE2.0Beware the Snake Oil Salesmen!With menopause estimated to be a multi-billion dollar industry, you can be sure that brands are going to come knocking. They want into our pockets and our pants with devices and products to cure every hotflash and night sweat. On the one hand, we're really happy to see so many more options finally emerging to help us through menopause, but on the other hand, can we really trust what we're being sold? Dr. Nathan Guerette, CEO of the Intimate Wellness Institute of Virginia and CMO of the Intimate Wellness Institute in Virginia joins us to ta...2022-06-0953 minSHE2.0Are you heart smart?With the stress of COVID, virtual schooling, WFH and everything else the past two years has thrown at us, it’s easy to mistake pandemic related symptoms with a much more serious threat – cardiovascular disease. Once we hit our 40’s, our bodies produce less estrogen which means less protection for our hearts. It’s a silent disease because high cholesterol doesn’t give any symptoms. We know this because Jacquie found out the hard way by getting bloodwork for an HRT assessment. That’s when we learned that our cholesterol rises with the onset of perimenopause. As we’ve said before, wh...2022-05-2650 min
SHE2.0"Rose all day" is a slippery slopeWe're telling our truth in this episode and it wasn't easy! We're joined by Jowita Bydlawska, author of "Drunk Mom" to talk about women and alcohol. How do current 'mom memes' encourage us to drink and do we realize the damage we're doing to our bodies and brains? The added downside of booze is that it adds nothing but grief to our menopause symptoms - Sleep, weight and health! So what's the answer? Maybe a healthier relationship with our wine? Talking openly?

SHE2.06 Questions every woman needs to ask her doctorWhen you’re having a hot flash, memory loss or sleepless nights does it ever feel like no one is listening? You’re not alone. And partly because in the past, no one WAS listening. That might be because treating hormones can feel dangerous to doctors. Many don't have a lot of training in this area. Lack of menopausal care is a huge disservice to women but let’s shed a little light as to why that might be. We’re talking to Dr. Susan Goldstein, MD CCFP FCFP NCMP is a Toronto based family physician...2022-04-1451 min

SHE2.0Yes! There are options for women going through menopause!Menopause can be a challenging time for most women but we’re happy to see more and more options than ever when it comes to managing our health and symptoms. From hormones to herbs, vitamins, and other holistic options, we are finally being given solutions. Prior to a few years ago, the treatment of menopause was very medical based. Our doctors were happy to write us a script for hormones, antidepressants, and sedatives. Only in the past 10 years or so have lifestyle measures and natural therapies become embraced, accepted, and utilized giving us more options based on our...2021-11-1839 min
SHE2.0You'll be glad you asked!How many times have we walked into our doctor’s appointment only to forget what we wanted to ask? Heck, if you’re in menopause, how many times have you walked into your own damn kitchen and forgotten what you were there for? Memory aside, women must take their health into their own hands when it comes to coping and dealing with peri/menopause. Why? Because we know first-hand that what you don’t know can have a very negative impact on your health. We’re talking to Sandra Love who has first-hand experience with a serious situatio...2021-11-0447 min

SHE2.0Dealing with GriefWhen we talk about menopause, we tend to focus on the symptoms. The things that physically impact us and can alter our day-to-day experience. However, what we don’t tend to discuss is one of the less acknowledged ‘side effect’ of menopause – grief. Like any other loss, we experience grief over the loss of our past selves, our ability to produce both children and collagen! We often give a nod to depression and anxiety that can come with this change in life, but we turn a blind eye to how this all makes us feel inside. We’re talking...2021-10-2651 min
SHE2.0HRT 101Is Hormone Replacement Treatment HRT safe? Safe for everyone? Safe for you? It’s a question many of us have asked ourselves and our doctors for years but have you ever felt confident with the answer? Back in 2002 the publication of a landmark study warned of the potential negative side-effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT). The report scared the hell out of women everywhere with the promise of serious health risks. And 19 years later, we're still on the fence about it. As we always say, knowledge is power and we wanted to learn what the deal is. Is...2021-10-1444 min
SHE2.0What your menopause symptoms are really telling youSome topics that are really close to our heart and Traditional Chinese Medicine is one of them. Not just because of the relief it can offer women going through peri/menopause but because of its approach to women and the change in general.

SHE2.0You can go to sleep but can you STAY asleep?Hey Samual Jackson! We have no problem going to sleep. It's staying asleep that we struggle with. In fact, sleep is one of the most common problems women experience with perimenopause. A lack of sleep triggers a series of other issues like stress, anxiety, fatigue amongst other things. How's a gal supposed to function? We figure helping you sleep is a great way to kick of Season 3 of the podcast. In this episode we’re talking to Kerry Roberts, RPh, BSc.

SHE2.0No Sleep and no sex. What's up with that?When we talk about menopause, estrogen always seems to steal the limelight. We know that our bodies aren't producing as much of it and we know the signs. But is estrogen taking all the credit? In this episode, Dr. Kristy Prouse, MD, OB/GYN and Chief Medical Officer of The Institute of Hormonal Health joins us to talk about what's really keeping us up at night! 2021-06-0347 min
SHE2.0The link between Menopause & Alzheimer'sOne of the most common symptoms of menopause is memory loss. We can't find our keys, remember what we were just going to say, forget the word to describe that thingamajiggy we need. It starts off slowly but as we start to lose our nouns, we start to really worry that we might be headed for disaster. Recently in the news we'd read that there has been talk about a connection between menopause and Alzheimer's Disease. Naturally we FREAKED OUT! We thought this was a phase, not a predictor for a pretty scary future. So...2021-05-2748 min

SHE2.0Staying strong through perimenopause and beyond!Some of us are embracing aging while some of us are raging against it. Is it a no-win battle? Maybe not. In this episode we’re talking to Melissa Fillion (M.Sc) - Personal Training Coach. Melissa knows better than most that we are getting the short end of the stick when it comes to aging. For example, did you know that muscle mass decreases later in life for men than women? She talks about how the decline in estrogen has a direct correlation to loss in muscle strength, function and mass. Is HRT safe and does it affect all...2021-03-1843 min

Geri has some great stories to share about sitting around a boardroom table discussing menopause -with men. Don’t miss it!

SHE2.0As if menopause isn't bad enoughWhether we want children or not, could have them or not or weren’t even sure about the topic all together, going into menopause takes all the decision making away from us. It’s like Mother Nature pulls the rug out from under us and says ‘There. No more babies for you!” It’s a lot to process. Imagine if the ability to start a family was taken away from you all together while you were in your prime. Our guest in this episode of “Real Women. Real Stories’ is Mallory McGrath, Founder & CEO of Viive Planning, a...2021-02-2554 min

SHE2.0Tick tock. Can we turn back the clock?While some of us are embracing aging gracefully, we admit that we might be raging against it – just a little! But like most consumers, we’re wary of brands that tout key messages over key ingredients. If we’re going to drop a lot of dough on a new skincare regime, we want to know that the brand we’re buying really understands the changes our skin goes through as we hit perimenopause and how we need to treat those pain points – like fine lines, sagging skin and puffiness which make us look more tired than we really are. That br...2021-02-1141 min

SHE2.0How to talk about menopauseIt’s hard to talk about a topic no one seems to want to talk about. Take menopause, for example. So how do you talk to the people in your life about this important change? How do you let your husband know it’s not him or tell your kids that sometimes Mommy comes unglued? Better yet, in an ageist workforce – how do you gain support and understanding for some of the gaffs you might make due to your symptoms like memory loss or brain fog?

In this episode we’re talking to Nav Grewal, BSc, MScPT, Pelvic Physiotherapist who shares a thing or 10 that we didn’t know about pelvic floor health. Starting with – what is a pelvic floor?

SHE2.0Can cannabis help with peri/menopause?We get a lot of terminology thrown at us by the healthcare system. Add symptoms of perimenopause and we practically need to keep Wikipedia open on our phones permanently just to understand what the heck is going on with our bodies! This week we’re going to throw another word at you: endocannabinoid Did you know our bodies all have an endocannabinoid system made up of receptors that can interact with cannabis and potentially relieve some of the more unpleasant or uncomfortable symptoms of menopause? Can it help with hormone imbalance and the myriad of sympt...2020-10-1539 min
SHE2.0Sex during a pandemic & perimenopauseThis week we are excited to share our conversation with Dr. Jess O’Reilly or ‘Sex with Dr. Jess’ as we know her.

I started this podcast because I wanted to learn about the benefits of cannabis - you see, I was a bit of a chicken. I'm not saying I'm now a seasoned pro but thanks to the generous contribution of their time and talent, amazing women like Irie Selkirk, Alison Gordon, Tabitha Fritz and many more have helped me learn about the...2020-09-2906 minSHE2.0The highs and the lows of cannabis - and how to enjoy them bothI’ve had so many great guests on to talk about all the positive benefits of cannabis but rarely do you hear me talk about the downside. First of all, that’s because the experience is different for everyone because everyone is different. For many, the ‘lows’ outweigh the highs when it comes to considering trying cannabis – especially with edibles which are known for their next day ‘fog’. I personally feel a bit shaky and just generally ‘off’ the morning after. In this episode I’m joined by Dmitri Budovitch, co-founder of Folium Labs in Quebec. They have produced a dail...2020-05-2100 minSHE2.0Cannabis & COVID 19Isolation, quarantine and physical distancing are all starting to get us either down or downright antsy.

This is where some people are really discovering the calming and ‘chill’ benefits of cannabis. So what better time to launch a cannabis brand? Starting up a cannabis focused business is tricky enough but imagine having COVID put a...2020-04-3000 minSHE2.0Menopause doesn't have to suckI don’t know about you, but I was always led to believe that menopause was charted on a course we have no control over. We would simply have to find a way to live with the cards we were dealt and there is no real remedy for the symptoms we might go through. In other words, buckle up and suffer through it. The more I look into it, the more I realize this thinking couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, women need to know that the more they learn about how their bodies work...2020-04-0227 min

火付けられた僕は、彼をブラックルームまで連れて行った。ブラックルームで僕らは、乳首を弄り合いながら、激しいキスをしてたりした。彼の穴をちょっとだけ触ったら、彼は体勢を崩しよろめきながら、僕の耳元で「あそこもやばい」と囁いだ。さすがにブラックルームで性交するのは自分は無理なので、二人でもう少し遊んでから出ていった。彼は名古屋に住んでいる子みたいで、いつか名古屋で会えて、一発できればいいなと思う。

Fakultät für Chemie und Pharmazie - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 03/06The nucleolusThe nucleolus is the most prominent subnuclear compartment in eukaryotic cells. It has a central function in the biogenesis of ribosomal subunits, but the past decade has revealed that a variety of additional non-ribosomal ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes require passage through the nucleolus during their maturation as well. Examples include small nuclear RNPs (snRNPs), the signal recognition particle (SRP), and viral RNPs. Recent data show that also specific localized messenger RNAs (mRNAs) or proteins implicated in their localization either reside predominantly in the nucleolus or accumulate there under certain conditions.
This study presents evidence that two mainly nucleolar RNA-binding proteins of...2009-05-2700 minFakultät für Chemie und Pharmazie - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 02/06Role of nuclear RNP assembly in cytoplasmic mRNA localizationMessenger RNA localization occurs in the cytoplasm and allows temporal and spatial regulation of gene expression. In yeast, the localization of ASH1 mRNA to the tip of budding cells allows the asymmetric sorting of Ash1 protein, which has a key function in the regulation of mating-type switching. After cell division, asymmetric distribution of Ash1p restricts mating type switching to only the mother cell. The cytoplasmic transport of ASH1 mRNA to the bud tip depends on the myosin Myo4p, its adaptor She3p, and the specific RNA binding protein She2p. Three additional trans-acting factors Khd1p, Puf6p...2007-09-0600 min
