| 2/23/26 |  Your Heart Is Talking: The Silent Signs of Heart Disease in Women | Why You Can Feel Fine and Still Be at Risk What if feeling perfectly healthy isn't the whole story? In this powerful episode of the Prime Women's Crazy Good Aging Podcast, we tackle a truth every woman needs to hear: heart disease is the number one killer of women — and it can be silent for years. No dramatic warning. No crushing chest pain. No obvious red flags. Just life as usual… until it isn't. "But I Felt Fine." Our guest, Cynthia Pharr, considered herself the picture of health. She exercised. She ate well. She lived fully and actively. A routine stress echocardiogram — ordered simply because her cholesterol was creeping up — changed everything. Without symptoms, without feeling sick, Cynthia learned she had a severe genetic valve condition. Over time, additional testing revealed complex heart issues that ultimately led to open heart surgery and an implanted defibrillator. The most powerful part of her story? She never felt "heart sick." Her message is one every woman needs to hear: Feeling fine can be dangerous if it causes you to skip appointments, ignore symptoms, or decline testing. Why Women Are Often Missed Joining the conversation is Dr. Zarina Sharalaya, interventional cardiologist and specialist in women's heart health. She shares what too many women experience: Symptoms brushed off as anxiety or reflux High blood pressure ignored because "you feel okay" Family history overlooked Risk factors under-tested and under-treated Women are often diagnosed later and treated later. Prevention changes that. Know Your Numbers. Know Your Risk. Dr. Sharalaya outlines the essentials every woman should track: Blood pressure (anything consistently above 130 matters) Cholesterol A1C (blood sugar) Lipoprotein(a) — a genetic cholesterol risk marker High-sensitivity CRP — an inflammation marker Calcium score (especially after age 50) She also emphasizes something many overlook: your family tree may hold hidden heart risk — even if no one had a heart attack. A heart murmur was dismissed for years. Congestive heart failure labeled as "old age." Genetic markers you didn't know existed. Your heart history may be quieter than you think. Menopause Changes the Equation After 50, as estrogen declines, cardiovascular risk increases. Blood pressure may rise. Cholesterol may shift. Even lifelong healthy habits don't make you immune. Prevention isn't panic — it's power. The Takeaway You don't need to be afraid. But you do need to be informed. You do need to ask questions. You do need to advocate for yourself. If you've ever said: "I feel fine." "It's probably nothing." "I'll deal with it later." This episode is for you. And if you love a woman in your life — share it with her. Your heart is talking. Make sure you're listening. Listen now to this vital episode of the Prime Women's Crazy Good Aging Podcast and take one small step toward protecting your future. | — | ||||||

| 2/4/26 |  Dating Over 50 Is WILD (Midlife Dating Stories You Can't Make Up) | Dating in midlife comes with freedom, confidence—and a whole new set of challenges no one warned us about. In this episode of Prime Women's Crazy Good Aging, guest host Amanda talks with her friend Alicia, a single woman in her early 50s navigating the modern dating landscape. What unfolds is a refreshingly honest conversation about dating apps, first-date expectations, safety concerns, and how priorities change as we get older. Alicia shares how dating apps often feel stacked against women over 50, why many women feel pressured to fib about their age just to be seen, and how profile pictures don't always tell the truth. She also opens up about the emotional toll of dating disappointments—and how hard it can be not to take rejection personally. One of the most powerful moments of the episode centers on safety. Alicia recounts a date that began innocently enough and quickly turned frightening, highlighting the extra vigilance women must practice when meeting someone new. It's a sobering reminder that while dating can be fun, protecting yourself always comes first. The conversation also explores intimacy in your 50s—how it's less about building a life from scratch and more about finding someone in the same stage of life. Someone who values health, independence, emotional connection, and shared experiences. They laugh about red flags they once ignored (strip clubs, anyone?) and celebrate green flags that matter now, like responsibility, self-sufficiency, and emotional maturity. Most of all, this episode reminds us that while midlife dating isn't easy, it can be empowering, clarifying, and even hopeful. Because dating in your 50s isn't about finding someone to complete you—it's about finding someone to life with. 👉 Listen to the full episode and join the conversation. 00:00 – Meet Amanda & Alicia: Why Midlife Dating Deserves Honesty 00:49 – "Disappointing": One Word to Describe Dating in Your 50s 01:26 – Expectations vs. Reality When Dating Again 02:15 – Playing the "Would You Date Anyone Here?"

She shares practical, life-affirming strategies to lower blood pressure without sacrificing joy, from adopting Mediterranean-style meals to stress management techniques that don't involve giving up your favorite wine. The conversation also addresses the disproportionate impact of hypertension on women of color and the urgent need for medical self-advocacy.
