Why Women's Brain Health Is at Risk in Midlife (and What You Can Do Now) with Emma Heming-Willis & Helen Christoni

In this powerful episode, I'm joined by Emma Heming-Willis and Helen Christoni for an honest conversation about women's brain health, dementia risk, emotional overload, and the profound changes women experience in midlife.

Women are nearly twice as likely as men to develop Alzheimer's disease, yet most are never taught how menopause, estrogen decline, chronic stress, caregiving, and emotional suppression impact the female brain. In this episode, we unpack the difference between dementia and Alzheimer's, why brain changes can begin decades before diagnosis, and why midlife is a critical window for awareness and prevention, not fear.

We also explore how nervous system dysregulation shows up as irritability, withdrawal, resentment, or burnout, why so many women feel disconnected from themselves in their 40s and 50s, and how telling the truth, emotionally and relationally, becomes essential for both brain and body health.
