Modern Menopause by Parlor Games

Modern Menopause is where midlife gets real—sticks to the science and has a few laughs along the way. This is the podcast for women who are done whispering about hot flashes and pretending brain fog is “just stress.” We talk about perimenopause, menopause, and everything that comes after with honesty, intelligence, and a whole lot of laughter. No “that’s just aging.” We break down the science so it makes sense—and so you feel empowered instead of overwhelmed. Joining you each week is Dr. Robyn Kutka, an expert in naturopathic medicine and hormone health, alongside your host Morven, a licensed professional counselor, who asks the questions you’re already thinking. Together, they bring warmth, candor, and plenty of laughter to topics that deserve to be talked about out loud. Midlife isn’t a crisis. It’s a recalibration. Let’s do it well—and have some fun while we’re at it. Learn more about <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href

  Permission to Rediscover Pleasure, with Jackie JacksonDaley

  Sep 8, 202634 min

  For decades, sex meant focusing on what your partner needed, not what you did. Board-certified sexologist Jackie JacksonDaley joins Morven and Dr. Robyn to talk about what changes when women finally ask what they want — from vanishing libido to the real reason so many couples feel mismatched in the bedroom. Plus: an honest, no-shame conversation about toys, boundaries, and why "self-exploration" isn't as intimidating as it sounds.

  A Renaissance Woman of Menopause: Denise Pines, Executive Producer of The M Factor

  Aug 25, 202645 min

  She built a tea company for women in menopause, produced a documentary that screened at the UN, founded Wise Pause Wellness, and it all started with one very inconvenient hot flash. This week Morven and Dr. Robyn sit down with Denise Pines, a producer, entrepreneur, policy advocate, and filmmaker. You might recognize her as the woman behind The M Factor documentary series. Denise gets real about the moment that hot flash sparked a career pivot, why so many doctors have zero training in menopause care, and the wild story of a teacher who accidentally changed the trajectory of her entire life.

  Episode #19

  She Was Sure It Was Estrogen. Her Saliva Test Said Otherwise.

  Aug 18, 202634 min

  Ten years post-menopausal, feeling stuck in fight-or-flight, convinced the fix was obvious — she just needed her estrogen back. It's one of the most common assumptions women make during midlife, and one of the easiest for a provider to miss. In this episode, Morven and Dr. Robyn walk through a real, side-by-side case study — two years of actual saliva test results — to unpack why "your hormones must be low" isn't always the right answer. You'll learn why blood work often comes back looking perfectly normal even when you feel far from it, what a cortisol curve can reveal that standard blood panels don't always show, and how this client's actual results pointed somewhere no one expected. If you've ever been told your labs look fine while you feel the opposite, this conversation is for you. The information provided is intended for educational and informational purposes only.

  Tired of Being Tired: Menopause and Sleep, Decoded

  Aug 11, 202618 min

  Can't fall asleep? Wide awake at 3 AM? Sleeping but not actually resting? You're not imagining it. Morven and Dr. Robyn dig into why progesterone and estrogen changes may affect your sleep, what cortisol has to do with it, and the daytime habits (not just bedtime ones) that actually move the needle. Plus: real listener questions on 3 AM wake-ups, sleep trackers, and when to loop in your doctor. Expect practical, doable tips — not just "turn off your phone."
