  • Perimenopause, Plainly Explained with Dr. Michael Lavie
    Feb 3 2026

    Text Di

    We unpack why so many women in their 40s feel “off” before cycles change, how hormone fluctuations drive anxiety and sleep loss, and when lifestyle fixes or hormone therapy make the biggest difference. We also discuss PCOS, ultrasound clues, and the limits of “normal” labs.

    • defining perimenopause as fluctuation-driven symptoms
    • why single-point labs miss dynamic hormone swings
    • practical triage of sleep, stress, and nutrition
    • training adjustments for longer recovery and DOMS
    • melatonin, short-term sleep aids, and caution
    • when hormone therapy helps despite normal labs
    • age ranges, ultrasound signs, and luteal issues
    • PCOS nuance, follicle selection, and cycle resets
    • listening to your body and seeking second opinions
    • treating only what harms quality of life

    Dr. Michael (Mickey) Lavie is a senior obstetrician-gynecologist at Lis Maternity & Women’s Hospital (Tel-Aviv Sorasky medical center) specializing in gynecologic oncology.

    In his private clinic Dr. Lavie is actively involved in advancing women’s health, with a focus on the impact of exercise and nutrition on a wide range of conditions, including PCOS, menopause, physical activity during pregnancy, and preventive medicine in women’s cancers.

    Married and a father of three.

  • Stop Letting Apps Tell You How To Feel
    Jan 20 2026

    Text Di

    Ever feel like your watch knows more about your body than you do? We flip that script by showing how to rebuild interoception—your internal dashboard—and use it alongside data so you can train smarter, recover faster, and perform better without the anxiety loop of constant checking. Instead of steering by yesterday’s sleep score or step count, we explore the difference between lagging indicators from wearables and the leading indicators your senses provide right now.

    I share why discipline without feedback turns into blind compliance and how real progress comes from adaptation, not endless grind. We dig into practical shifts you can use immediately: a weekly analog training session guided by rate of perceived exertion, a nervous system audit that measures true downshifting over hours slept, and a pause-first approach for those foggy moments when you can’t tell if you should push or rest. Expect clear language, memorable analogies, and tools that restore you as the CEO of your own health.

    You’ll hear how high performers sustain strength and leanness for decades by listening closely, not by maxing out daily. We unpack simple body cues—jaw tension, breath depth, energy texture—that reveal whether your system needs stimulus or softness. The goal isn’t to ditch science or toss your watch; it’s to build the translator in your brain so numbers have meaning and your choices match your physiology.

    If you’re ready to stop driving by the rearview mirror and start reading the road ahead, this conversation will give you the framework. Listen, take one recalibration for a spin this week, and tell us what your body says when you finally give it the mic. Enjoyed it?
