Could menopause be closer than you think? What if it’s already starting in your 30s without you knowing?

I bring on gerontologist and biohacker Zora Benhamou, host of Hack My Age, to reveal the hidden hormonal shifts most women miss. Zora shares why progesterone quietly dips in your mid-30s, how strength and mobility become your best defense, and why baseline lab tests are game-changers before symptoms kick in. We also talk about practical biohacks that help you build energy, confidence, and resilience now and for decades to come. 

Whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or already approaching perimenopause, this conversation will show you how to prepare early so you don’t just get through menopause, you thrive.
