  • S3E3: Dr. Sharon Malone-Women's Health
    2024/11/06

    Please join us for this highly insightful and encouraging episode where we talk with Dr. Sharon Malone. Dr. Sharon Malone is a DC-based OB/GYN and Certified Menopause Practitioner on a mission to empower women to take charge of their health. Dr. Sharon Malone is a nationally known expert in women’s health and the New York Times Bestselling author of Grown Woman Talk. She is the Chief Medical Advisor at Alloy Women’s Health, a telehealth company that focuses on women over 40. Before joining Alloy, Dr. Malone was a partner at one of the oldest and most successful OB/GYN medical practices in Washington, D.C. She is board-certified by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and certified by the North American Menopause Society as a Certified National Menopause Practitioner. Throughout her professional career, she has been active in advocating for reproductive rights, reducing teen pregnancy, and eliminating health care disparities. Dr. Malone has been honored with the Health Award from the Black Women's Agenda, Inc., and was named on the 2024 Forbes 50 over 50 list.

    Dr. Malone is the youngest of eight children. During World War II, her parents, both of whom were raised in the rural South, moved to Mobile, Alabama, during the migration from farms to cities. She has seen health care from both sides—as a physician and a child of parents who negotiated health care for themselves and their families in the Jim Crow South. Despite living next door to two hospitals, preventative health care was never a part of her family’s life. As a result, Dr. Malone’s mother would lose her life to colon cancer, diagnosed too late for treatment. This searing life experience has informed how Dr. Malone has chosen to practice medicine and brought focus to the healthcare issues she has chosen to pursue.

    In addition to her interest in women’s health, Dr. Malone is an avid reader, an amateur genealogist, and a lover of music. She is married to former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. and lives in Washington, D.C.

  • How Digital Addiction Affects Our Brains (with Austin Pearlmutter)
    2021/11/09

    We sit down with Austin Perlmutter to discuss how toxic social media and mindless internet scrolling has become something that our brains have been hardwired to do.

    While it isn't currently coined "addiction" in our country, the ways that our brains are stimulated based on social media is directly correlated with dopamine rush. It very closely mimics addictive behavior. We have become trained to depend on it for stimulation.

    How can we break these trends and what can we do to offset the symptoms setting in across the U.S. such as anxiety and depression as a result of overuse?
