Listen "The Testosterone Awakening: Why Men Are Taking Back Control"
Episode Synopsis
I have been meaning to do this podcast for months!
And although I am talking about men and testosterone, ladies please pay attention. Too many men are suffering in silence as their version of menopause (Andropause) is sneaky and subtle and often dismissed.
Testosterone isn't just about muscle or libido — it's the foundation of a man’s vitality, strength, confidence, and health. But what happens when it starts to decline… and how can men fight back?
In this cutting-edge episode of Midlife Mayhem, Joanne dives deep into the misunderstood world of male hormones, unpacking why testosterone declines with age, what “normal” actually means, and how lifestyle, labs, and even peptides are helping men take control.
If you're a man over 40 (or you care about one), this is essential listening.
🔍 In This Episode, You'll Learn:
✅ Why testosterone declines with age — and how it’s not just aging
✅ What the medical world considers “normal”… and why that’s often useless
✅ The real difference between total vs. free testosterone
✅ The impact of aromatase (and why belly fat makes everything worse)
✅ How SHBG binds and blocks your testosterone — and what to do about it
✅ Subtle signs of low testosterone most men miss
✅ Top supplements to lower SHBG and aromatase naturally
✅ Why TRT might not help if you carry too much fat — and how to fix that
✅ The controversial but powerful role of peptides (Kisspeptin, HCG, BPC-157)
✅ How the right exercise strategy can increase testosterone
✅ The truth about andropause — and why it’s time we talked about it
✅ How men are reclaiming their edge with smart lifestyle upgrades and testing
