In this episode of Biohacking Eve, host Judith Mueller and guest Danielle Ruiz, CEO and Chief Medical Officer of Everest Health, explore the complex impact of general ageing, perimenopause, and menopause on women’s social health. They discuss the hormonal shifts that influence self-perception, relationships, and career performance, highlighting the vital role of social engagement in physical and emotional well-being.

Danielle shares insights from her work at Everest Health, showcasing how personalised interventions—from hormone therapy to lifestyle changes, EMDR, and hyperbaric oxygen treatments—can optimise health and longevity for women.
