The Truth About Later Motherhood: What Your Doctor Isn't Telling You With Dr. Zaid Fadul

Dr. Zaid Fadul, Harvard-trained physician and CEO of Bespoke Concierge MD, joins me for a deep conversation on women's health in their 30s and 40s—where self-advocacy becomes non-negotiable.

We explore the overlooked health blind spots for women, from bone density loss and declining VO₂ max to the hormone disruptions caused by microplastics and processed foods. Dr. Fadul shares why "mom guilt" is a health risk in itself, how to model resilience for your kids, and the truth about late motherhood from a medical lens.

You'll learn why the "low-hanging fruit" of diet, movement, and rest still reign supreme over the trendiest biohacks—and how tech, screens, and femtech innovations are shaping women's health for better and worse.
