HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We believe that women of any age deserve to feel beautiful, confident, and empowered in their skin. Aging is natural—and so are the many noninvasive skincare and anti-aging options available today.

Feeling your best doesn’t have to mean Botox, fillers, or cosmetic surgery. So what are the best noninvasive treatments for aging skin, especially for women who want natural results?

This week, we’re joined by Board-Certified Dermatologist Dr. Doris Day, a nationally recognized expert in skin health and anti-aging dermatology. Dr. Day shares a variety of science-backed skincare treatments and products that women over 50 should know about. From the critical role of daily sunscreen in preventing premature aging to innovative technologies like Sofwave for skin tightening and collagen stimulation, she explains how women can maintain healthy, youthful-looking skin without invasive procedures.

Whether you’re curious about noninvasive skin rejuvenation, anti-aging skincare routines, or the latest dermatologist-recommended treatments, this episode offers practical, expert insights to help women feel beautiful—inside and out.

13% of women over 50 struggle with the symptoms of an eating disorder. * Whether it is a recurrence or brought on by life transitions, hormones or stress, the numbers are rising.

For our last episode of 2025, we are joined by Mallary Tenore Tarpley.

Mallary is an assistant professor of journalism at the University of Texas and author of the new book, Slip: Life in the Middle of Eating Disorder Recovery. Mallary shares her personal experience along with clinicians, researchers, and others with lived experience. We discuss the space between sickness and health and how therapists should be focusing on treating the personality traits in addition to the symptoms.
