In this episode of Things You Can’t Un-Hear, I’m joined by leading exercise physiologist and women’s health researcher Dr Stacy Sims, who has spent decades translating complex science into practical, actionable advice to help women build strength, resilience and longevity of both body and mind.

We dive into why women have historically been underrepresented in medical and exercise research, and why the idea that “women are not small men” matters so much when it comes to how we train, eat, recover and age.

We also unpack the changing conversation around women's bodies. From the stick-thin beauty ideals of the Kate Moss era, to the focus on strength and muscle, and now the rise of GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic and Mounjaro. Are we at risk of returning to a culture where being smaller is seen as being healthier?

Stacy explains why muscle, bone density, nutrition and strength become increasingly important as women age, and what we can actually do to protect our future health span.
