Have you ever thought about what you want the last years, months or weeks of your life to look like? What if you or a loved one is diagnosed with an unexpected illness, or you are injured in some way - what do you hope your care will be? Where will you be? Who will be taking care of you? Who would you want making decisions for you about your health, your care and even your life if you were not able to do so for yourself?With the health care system in crisis across Canada, asking these questions and planning are more important than ever. This is an important part of the work the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association does, helping to prepare for the future of healthcare in Canada. It provides education, raises awareness and influences public policy to ensure that we and our loved ones prepare and get the care we all want and deserve when we need it the most. In this vital episode, CHPCA CEO Laurel Gillespie shares her own journey facing a life-changing illness and having to plan end-of-life care and she shares what she's learned to now help others do the same.

Feeling bloated, gassy, backed up? Have you noticed changes in your bowel movements as you've aged? You're not alone. Nearly 40% of older adults have one or more age-related digestive symptoms each year. Gastroenterologist Dr. Colleen Parker takes us on a fascinating tour of our gastrointestinal system and our gut microbiome, and tells us what changes as we get older, why we might experience more issues such as constipation and bloating and what we can do about it. What role do hormones, menopause, stress and even medications play in our digestive changes? What about the mind-gut connection? Is leaky gut really a thing? She also helps us determine what is a "normal" bowel movement from an abnormal one and when to seek care. Finally, she tells us when and how laxatives like Senokot can be used to help ease symptoms and get things moving again.

So, you're learning more about menopause every day, but how much does your workplace support you in your journey? Does your boss know or care what you're going through? There are 10 million women aged 40 and up in Canada. Two million are between the ages of 45 and 55, and if they're in the workplace, many are in their peak earning years. The majority of us will experience menopause symptoms that interfere with daily activities and 10% of us will leave work due to debilitating symptoms. So, how can workplaces be supportive during this period and allow us to be as productive as possible? That is the conversation in this podcast episode.

Everyone seems to be discussing hormone therapy these days, but there is still a lot of confusion among women and doctors about who can and cannot take it. It's time to get the answers with the doctors that the other doctors go to for guidance - menopause specialists Dr. Michelle Jacobson and Dr. Iliana Lega. Why do fears about hormone therapy persist? Can someone with a history of breast cancer in their family take hormone therapy? Are there any other conditions that preclude someone from taking menopause hormone therapy? Who can take MHT, starting at what age and for how long? What about people who simply don't want to take it. What are their treatment options? The answers will surprise you.

October is Menopause Awareness Month, and in recognition of this, I’m dedicating every episode to unique and important conversations about menopause. In April, I hosted an incredible event with leading experts: Dr. Sheila Wajayasignhe, Janet Ko, founder of the Menopause Foundation of Canada, and menopause coach and fitness expert Amanda Thebe. Together, these experts tackled all the big questions: - What is menopause, and does everyone experience it?- How severe can the symptoms get, and are any of them dangerous? - What treatments are available, and is hormone therapy suitable for everyone? - How do I access proper care, and what can I do if my doctor isn’t taking me seriously? - How can lifestyle changes help manage symptoms? - What can I do if my mental health is suffering? - How does menopause affect sex drive and urinary incontinence? - Why am I gaining weight, and how can I stop it? Plus, we addressed even more audience questions, diving deep into every aspect of this life transition. We cover it all—so tune in to listen, learn, and even share a laugh on the next episode of *Aging Powerfully with Melissa Grelo*.Episode supported by Always Discreet (@AlwaysDiscreet on Instagram)!

She was the face of fashion for almost 30 years as the host of Fashion Television - the show that gave us front row seats to the biggest names in Paris, London and Milan. Jeanne Beker blazed a trail that nobody has been able to replicate ever since. Now, in her new book, "Heart on My Sleeve", she takes us into her closet and shares amazing stories each connected with a special item of clothing. From encounters and interviews with the most famous people in the world, to finding love again after two divorces, to sharing her breast cancer diagnosis and recovery. I also share the time I first saw Jeanne at work in the same building and ask her what challenges she faced coming up in the TV business.

Welcome to the season two premiere of Aging Powerfully with Melissa Grelo! I'm kicking off the season with some big time inspiration from someone who is the definition of aging powerfully: Grammy-winning singer, dancer and choreographer, Paula Abdul! At 62, she continues to tour, perform grueling shows and singing live. How does she do it? She shares her regimen including how she eats, sleeps and moves her body. In the first half of the episode, we discuss Paula's big break into showbiz, the famous family who helped launch her career and how she learned to handle fame. In the second half of the conversation, Paula talks about aging in a business that favours the young, going through menopause and managing injuries and pain at the same time. Finally, Paula shares her advice to younger women and tells us who her favourite pop stars are today, including how she helped singer-dancer Tate McRae get a start in the business.

It's an uncomfortable truth: Canada is not immune from racism, nor is our healthcare system. If you have to interact with the healthcare system, will you get the care you need? Will you get the care you deserve regardless of your age, your race, your gender or the language you speak? Will your elderly parents get the care they need and deserve? Family physician and preventive medicine specialist Dr. Onye Nnorum breaks down systemic racism in medicine and how it can impact all of us. She also discusses solutions to improve the system so that we can all feel safe and heard by our healthcare practitioners.

Have you sneezed or coughed and had a little pee accident? Are you suffering from urinary incontinence? Has sex ever been painful for you? These are just some of the symptoms of genitourinary syndrome. Up to 80% of menopausal women can suffer from it. It is caused by low estrogen levels in the tissues of the urinary tract and the female genital tract. Why is understanding pelvic floor health important? Well, urinary incontinence is one of the top reasons women are admitted to long-term care homes and it can have drastic effects on mental, social and physical health. On this episode of the show, physiotherapist and researcher Dr. Sinead Dufour and Erin Craven, CEO of UROSPOT - clinics that focus on pelvic healthcare for women and men - discuss the vital importance of understanding and treating the pelvic floor for overall health.
