Why You're Spending $200 on Your Hair But Not Your Hormones or Your Future — A Midlife Doctor on Health, Wealth & Reinvention | Dr. Susan Hardwick-Smith
What if the best investment you could make isn't in your appearance—but in your long-term health? In this inspiring episode of the Catch Her Spark Podcast, Jen Maldonado sits down with board-certified gynecologist and certified menopause practitioner Dr. Susan Hardwick-Smith to challenge the way women think about aging, hormones, wellness, and self-worth.
Dr. Susan shares her personal journey from practicing traditional OB/GYN medicine to building a women-centered wellness practice that prioritizes education, connection, and personalized care. Together, Jen and Dr. Susan explore why so many women struggle through perimenopause and menopause without the information and support they deserve—and how changing the conversation can change lives.
Throughout the episode, they discuss why menopause education is still lacking, how hormones influence physical and emotional health, the importance of creating safe healthcare experiences, and why investing in your health should be viewed as one of life's greatest priorities.
