Sharing a special episode this week, from Dr. Sharon Malone. On Dr. Sharon’s new podcast, The Second Opinion, women take back the conversation on health with straight talk, real experience, and the care we all deserve. You’ll hear prominent female advocates, experts and patients just like you sharing how they confronted gaps in our healthcare system and got second opinions that saved their lives. Alongside each guest, Dr. Sharon tackles the questions and topics we’ve been conditioned to ignore — the ones we search for at 3 a.m. but never bring up at the doctor’s office. From dismissed symptoms to systemic failures, she pulls back the curtain on what’s really going on in women’s health and gives women the tools to advocate for themselves and each other. In this episode, Dr. Sharon talks to Board Certified Ob/GYN and Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgeon, Dr. Karen Tang. The two unpack the evolution of Obstetrics Gynecology, the different OB-GYN subspecialties, and surgical options for reproductive health. Plus, Dr. Tang shares experiences patients may have on the surgical table and why you may want to choose a minimally invasive surgery for gynecologic conditions.

#312: If you’ve ever felt like you’re too loud, too soft, too opinionated, too emotional, too ambitious—or just too much—this episode is for you.

Nicole Walters is back on the podcast, and in true Nicole fashion, she’s not holding anything back. After walking away from a 12-year marriage, becoming a mom again at 40, writing a bestselling memoir, and rebranding her platform, she’s learned exactly what it costs to become your truest self. And why it’s always worth it.

We talk about what happens when you stop downplaying yourself to stay likable, why clarity often comes after loss, and how to stop shrinking yourself just because it makes other people more comfortable.

If you’ve been tiptoeing around your own evolution—afraid of how it might look, or who it might upset—you need to press play on this episode.

We talk about:

• The cost of shrinking to be palatable
• Using your platform when your values are louder than your fear
• The difference between responding and reacting
• Her postpartum experience and why having a baby at 40 changed everything
• Being misunderstood and doing it anyway
• How to know when it’s time to leave—your job, your relationship, your old self

#311: Have you ever hit a wall—mentally, creatively, emotionally—and wondered how you were going to get through it? I have, many times.

When I’m low on motivation or facing something that feels bigger than me, I’ve started asking myself a simple question: What would Beyoncé do? Not in a “she’s perfect” kind of way, but because she embodies discipline, reinvention, and showing up even when it’s hard.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing why Beyoncé is one of my go-to sources of inspo when I need to recalibrate, plus a few lessons I’ve pulled from her rehearsals, performances, and fearless approach to business. Whether it’s a new creative project, a tough decision, or just getting through a blah week—channeling a little Bey energy can go a long way.

If you’ve been needing a mindset reset or a reminder that you’ve got this (even when it feels like you don’t) this episode is for you.
