SUMMARY:Thrive Book Circle: Generation M by Dr. Jessica Shepherd
DESCRIPTION:This month\, Thrive for Longevity Book Circle explores Generation M by Dr. Jessica Shepherd. A menopause and perimenopause guide focused on helping women live well through the midlife transition with information\, confidence\, and better care. The title centers the women currently reshaping the menopause conversation and supports Thrive’s goal of making hormone health more visible\, practical\, and empowering. \nTogether\, we’ll use the book as a starting point for a thoughtful conversation about hormone health & menopause mastery\, what the ideas mean in real life\, and how women can translate new knowledge into more informed choices for the years ahead. \nCome ready to share what resonated\, what challenged you\, and what you want to explore further. You do not need to have finished the entire book to participate. Bring your curiosity\, your questions\, and your perspective.

SUMMARY:Brain Health: The Cognitive Biomarkers Emerging Now
DESCRIPTION:June is Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month. Women make up two-thirds of Alzheimer’s diagnoses\, and the biological reasons why are only now being understood. What’s more\, cognitive decline begins measurably decades before symptoms appear\, and the biomarkers that reveal this trajectory are transforming preventive brain health. \nThis session covers brain health as an assessable\, trackable system rather than a mystery you address only after cognitive symptoms appear. We’ll walk through what standard neurological screening currently offers\, what emerging biomarkers can reveal about your brain trajectory\, and the specific connections between hormone status\, metabolic health\, and cognitive risk. If you have a family history of Alzheimer’s or dementia\, this session is particularly important. \nStandard of care markers we’ll cover include standard cognitive screening (Mini-Mental State Exam\, MoCA)\, thyroid panel\, B12\, vitamin D\, and homocysteine as related to cognition. Emerging markers include APOE genotype (specifically for APOE4 carrier status)\, plasma p-tau 217 and other Alzheimer’s blood biomarkers now becoming available\, GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein)\, advanced lipid markers as they connect to brain health\, comprehensive hormone assessment as it relates to cognitive function\, and MRI-based volumetric analysis when appropriate. \nYou’ll leave with understanding of brain health as a trackable system\, clarity on which emerging tests are worth pursuing based on your family history and risk factors\, and the framework for a preventive brain health conversation with your physician years before cognitive symptoms would appear.

SUMMARY:Skin\, Sun\, and Vitamin D: The Screening Conversation Most Women Skip
DESCRIPTION:July is UV Safety Month and Sarcoma Awareness Month. Skin health is one of the most consistently under-assessed areas in women’s midlife healthcare\, and the vitamin D conversation has become genuinely confused across current guidance. Both areas benefit from the biomarker literacy approach. \nThis session covers skin health assessment\, vitamin D interpretation\, and the connections between sun exposure history\, skin cancer risk\, and systemic vitamin D status. We’ll walk through what a proper full-body skin examination should include\, the specific skin cancers most missed in women\, and how to interpret vitamin D testing when the “normal” range varies dramatically between labs and practitioners. \nStandard of care markers we’ll cover include annual dermatology skin exam\, vitamin D 25-hydroxy\, and standard basal and squamous cell carcinoma screening. Emerging markers and assessments include high-resolution dermoscopy and full-body photography for melanoma tracking\, vitamin D 1\,25-dihydroxy in complex cases\, skin cancer risk stratification tools\, vitamin D optimization targeting beyond baseline sufficiency\, and the specific dermatologic changes to monitor in perimenopause and menopause. \nYou’ll leave with a clear framework for annual skin assessment\, understanding of vitamin D testing beyond a single number\, and the specific questions to ask your dermatologist about your personal skin cancer risk profile.

SUMMARY:Immune Function: The Markers That Reveal Resilience or Depletion
DESCRIPTION:August is National Immunization Awareness Month. Beyond the vaccine conversation\, immune health is a foundational system that most women have never seen assessed beyond an occasional CBC (complete blood count). The immune markers that reveal chronic depletion\, infection history\, and inflammatory patterns are increasingly available\, and they matter more in midlife than at any prior point in life. \nThis session covers immune function as a measurable system. We’ll walk through what a standard CBC actually reveals about immune health\, the emerging markers that provide much richer information about immune resilience\, and the specific connections between hormone status\, stress\, and immune function. If you’ve been sick more often than seems reasonable\, take longer to recover\, or have autoimmune concerns\, this session provides the framework for a deeper conversation. \nStandard of care markers we’ll cover include CBC with differential\, standard antibody titers for immunization status\, and ANA (antinuclear antibody) as a general autoimmune screen. Emerging markers include comprehensive immune subset panels (CD4\, CD8\, NK cells\, B cells)\, specific antibody titers for viral reactivation (EBV\, CMV\, HHV-6)\, autoimmune expanded panels\, immunoglobulin subclasses (IgA\, IgM\, IgG with subclass analysis)\, and specific inflammatory patterns that predict immune dysfunction. \nYou’ll leave with an understanding of immune function beyond a simple white blood cell count\, the specific tests to request if you have chronic infection concerns or autoimmune symptoms\, and the framework for a genuinely informed immune health conversation.
