We’re back after a little pause (because, you know... life), and this episode is one we had to share. Amy brings on her cousin Nancy for a powerful and personal conversation about the moment that stopped her in her tracks...literally. What started as a flutter in her chest turned out to be something far more serious. Not one, but two heart attacks.

If you’ve ever chalked up symptoms to “just stress” or “maybe menopause,” Nancy’s story is your wake-up call. We talk about the danger of dismissing our own discomfort, what a heart attack feels like (spoiler: not always like the movies), and why so many women delay asking for help.

But don’t worry, this isn’t all heavy. There’s plenty of laughter and the kind of honest friend chat you can only get here. Because even the serious stuff feels easier when you’re not going through it alone.

In this episode, we unpack:

• Heart attack symptoms in women over 50 (they don’t always look how you think)
• Menopause and heart health (the conversation you should have with your doctor)
• What it feels like to experience SVT (supraventricular tachycardia)
• Why so many women delay asking for help or brush off early signs
• How to advocate for yourself at the doctor’s office
• Honest conversations about what it’s like to juggle caregiving, marriage, and your own well-being during midlife

🤍 Press play, then forward it to a friend.

👉 If you’ve ever brushed off symptoms or said, “I’m fine,” this one’s for you.

🩺 Quick heads up: We’re not doctors, so don’t take this as medical advice, but definitely take it seriously.
