There’s more information about hormone health than ever before, but not all of it is accurate. Jari Becker, RPh, shares why education should be the first step for women navigating perimenopause, menopause and hormone therapy.

This conversation isn’t about what you should or shouldn’t choose to do -- But it is about educating yourself, knowing what questions to ask, understanding what to check, and remembering to be your own best advocate.

Full interview on our website/link in bio.

📋 Guest Jari Becker is a licensed pharmacist with more than 30 years of experience and the Director of Women's Health at Town & Country Compounding.

All of that thinking and learning can build up an appetite. So how do we support those brains while finding a satisfyingly tasty snack?

Heart of Surfing is more than a day at the beach — it’s a community built on joy, acceptance, and connection. Every summer Saturday, families, volunteers, and surfers come together to create a space where individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities can feel confident, supported, and celebrated.

From the first wave to the last high‑five, you can feel the love on the shoreline. It’s a place where friendships form naturally, where encouragement is constant, and where everyone belongs exactly as they are. The ocean becomes a classroom, a playground, and a home — and the community that gathers here makes every moment unforgettable.

This is what wellness looks like when people show up for each other.

This is the Heart of Surfing.

There are many treatment options for urinary urgency and incontinence — far more than most people realize.

In this minisode of A Dose of Health, host Kate Cherichello and Dr. Siobhan Hartigan walk through the full spectrum of care, from lifestyle adjustments and pelvic floor exercises to medications, bladder retraining, and procedural interventions.

Dr. Hartigan explains:
• 🧘‍♀️ pelvic floor therapy & lifestyle changes
• 💊 medications & bladder retraining
• 💉 bladder Botox
• ⚡ sacral neuromodulation
• 🦶 tibial nerve stimulation — a modern therapy rooted in ancient Chinese medicine that uses ankle‑level nerve pathways to improve bladder signaling

She breaks down how each option works and what patients can expect when exploring treatment for urgency incontinence.

This minisode is part of A Dose of Health, a short‑form series from Healthy In The Garden State created to spotlight the incredible individuals and resources supporting physical, mental, and emotional well‑being throughout New Jersey — all in 15(ish) minutes or less.

If you are going to utilize a sweetener, local honey is one of the sweetest ways to keep both your health and your community in mind. It contains natural antioxidants, offers clean energy, and has antimicrobial benefits that help soothe your throat and support your immune system. Plus, choosing local means you’re getting nutrient‑rich honey straight from nearby hives: no long travel, no heavy processing, just pure Garden State goodness.

Save this for your next honey run and shop small at an NJ farm 🍯🌿
