  • The unique aspects of female biology for longevity: Why women are naturally built for a longer lifespan and how menopause can be seen as an opportunity for reinvention.

  • Addressing the shortcomings of current longevity protocols: How standard medical approaches and most longevity research often overlook or misapply male-centric models to female biology.

  • The hidden costs of burnout: Exploring the cellular and systemic impact of burnout, and the importance of support, boundaries, and self-care tools for women.

Episode Highlights

following the wrong playbook
"This conversation is for every woman who's ever felt dismissed, drained, or like her health just isn't adding up because the truth is women were biologically built for longevity, and the problem is we've been following the wrong playbook. " ALEJANDRA
our crown
"If you have a handle on inflammation, you are not just gonna live a long life, you're gonna live a high quality life." ALEJANDRA
rewrite that narrative
"My work helps rewrite that narrative by offering, you know, female centered, female focused strategies that respect the cyclical rhythms, stress patterns, and nutrient needs" ALEJANDRA
of course
"You can't apply a testosterone based model to an estrogen driven body and expect the same results. ALEJANDRA
its not about 'pushing through'
"And so this resilience, this innate resilience that we're we're born with, it really isn't about pushing through. 'Cause that seems to be like the more male focused approach. It's about recovery boundaries and honoring your biology"  ALEJANDRA
