  • Midlife Awakening & Soul Work: Breaking Patterns, Healing Trauma, and Finding Your True Self with Vanessa Bennett

    Midlife Awakening & Soul Work: Breaking Patterns, Healing Trauma, and Finding Your True Self with Vanessa Bennett
    Apr 16 2026
    Have you ever checked every box society told you to check - the career, the relationship, the life and still felt hollow, disconnected, or like you were living someone else's story? In this powerful episode of The Body Pod, we sit down with Vanessa Bennett, depth psychologist, Jungian therapist, and author, to explore the kind of healing that goes far beyond traditional talk therapy. Vanessa breaks down what depth psychology actually is and how it differs from conventional Western therapy by diving into the unconscious mind, working with archetypes, dreams, and symbolism to uncover what your psyche is truly trying to communicate. Whether you've been in therapy for years and still feel like something is missing, or you've never set foot in a therapist's office but sense that something beneath the surface is calling for your attention, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

    Vanessa introduces one of the most relatable frameworks we've heard for understanding life transitions: the feather, the brick, and the Mack truck and explains why so many of us, especially women in midlife, don't slow down and listen until something catastrophic forces us to. She unpacks the difference between ego work and soul work, why Western psychology often stops short of real transformation by simply getting us "back to functioning," and how symptoms — whether emotional, psychological, or even physical like heart palpitations or autoimmune disease — are actually the psyche's way of demanding to be heard. We also dive into archetypes, including the caregiver, the martyr, the trickster, and the victim, and how understanding which archetypes you're embodying can unlock profound self-awareness and break deeply ingrained patterns that have been running your life without your conscious knowledge.

    We get deeply personal in this episode. Vanessa opens up about losing her home and her entire community in the LA wildfires, what it truly means to metabolize grief, and how relocating to Costa Rica became an unexpected catalyst for her own healing and forced slowdown. She shares her philosophy of following your breadcrumbs and leaning into whatever sparks a sense of aliveness in you, without needing it to make logical sense as one of the most powerful tools for navigating midlife awakening, identity shifts, and the quarter-life and midlife transitions that leave so many of us quietly asking, is this really it? If you're ready to stop brushing off the feathers and start doing the deeper soul work, this episode is your invitation.

  • Dr. Kelly Casperson on HRT Myths, Hormones, and Why Exercise Beats Everything

    Dr. Kelly Casperson on HRT Myths, Hormones, and Why Exercise Beats Everything
    Apr 9 2026
    In this bonus episode, board-certified urologist and menopause expert Dr. Kelly Casperson joins host Hailey Babcock to answer your most pressing questions about perimenopause, post-menopause, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Whether you've been told you can't take hormones, you're confused about estrogen patches vs. pills, or you're wondering why your belly fat, brain fog, and joint pain suddenly showed up — this episode is for you.

    Dr. Casperson breaks down why the majority of women who believe they can't take hormones are actually mistaken, debunks the outdated 10-year rule, and explains why transdermal estrogen carries far less risk than oral estrogen. She covers the science behind vaginal estrogen for bladder health and labial thinning, the role of progesterone for sleep and bone health, and why testosterone for women is underutilized and under appreciated.

    You'll also hear the truth about breast cancer risk and HRT, why visceral fat increases during menopause (and why it's not your fault), how hormones affect cognitive function and dementia prevention, and what the research is pointing toward in the next five years. Plus: what products to skip, when peptide therapy may not be worth it, and why — even with all of her hormone expertise — Dr. Casperson still says nothing is better than exercise.

    Topics covered include: HRT myths and contraindications, vaginal estrogen, bladder leakage and Botox for overactive bladder, progesterone without a uterus, testosterone for low libido and beyond, perimenopause vs. post-menopause, abdominal fat and the metabolic syndrome of menopause, brain fog, tinnitus, hair loss, foot pain, gum/bone health, LP(a) and cardiac risk, peptide therapy, and how to find a hormone-informed provider.

    🎙️ Dr. Kelly Casperson is a urologist, author of You Are Not Broken, and host of the You Are Not Broken podcast. Find her at kellycaspersonmd.com.
