Perimenopause can feel like a slow unraveling. You’re waking up at 3 a.m. Your anxiety feels new. Your periods are changing. Your skin, your sleep, your stress tolerance — all different. And yet, you’re told your labs are “normal.” In this episode of The SEAM Podcast, Amy Cohen Epstein sits down with naturopathic physician Dr. Gusty Swift to talk honestly about midlife hormone shifts and why so many women feel dismissed during this stage of life. Instead of prescribing for symptoms alone, Dr. Swift explains her root-cause approach — looking at the thyroid, adrenals, and ovaries as an interconnected system, and addressing the nervous system as a key driver of perimenopausal change.

In this deeply personal conversation, Natasha Gregson Wagner returns to The SEAM Podcast to reflect on grief, legacy, and the quiet ways love is passed from mother to daughter. Speaking with Amy Cohen Epstein, Natasha shares how losing her mother, legendary actress Natalie Wood, shaped her identity, her motherhood, and her understanding of safety, love, and remembrance.

This conversation moves through grief without stigma, the long arc of healing, and the intimacy of mother-daughter bonds — especially as Natasha raises her own daughter, Clover. Natasha also opens up about her fragrance brand, L'Amour Mère (meaning "Mother Love" in French) is as an act of emotional alchemy: transforming loss into beauty, ritual, and connection across generations.

January often arrives with a familiar mix of motivation and pressure: new goals, new systems, and yet another promise to “do better.” In this episode of the SEAM Podcast, host Amy Cohen Epstein sits down with Kerri O’Hara, founder of The Curated Day Planner, to examine why traditional approaches to planning and New Year’s resolutions so often fail women and what actually works instead. Designed with neurodivergent women in mind, The Curated Day Planner emerged from Kerri’s own experience navigating ADHD, burnout, and the invisible mental load that shapes daily life.

When you’ve heard the words “you have cancer,” it’s almost impossible not to compare yourself to the person you were before diagnosis. For integrative cancer coach and breast cancer survivor Isabel Galiano, that comparison became a quiet form of self-punishment—until she learned to measure her life from a different starting line.

In this conversation, Isabel traces her story from caring for her mother through colon cancer at 50, to her own breast cancer diagnosis at 32 just after her honeymoon, to a devastating recurrence less than two years after being declared cancer-free. She shares how she moved from being a “guest” in her own treatment—doing only what doctors told her—to becoming an active participant in her care, studying health coaching, nutrition, and functional medicine to build a toolbox for healing and long-term survivorship.
