You Are Not Broken

De: Kelly Casperson MD
  • Resumen

  • Empowering women (and the partners who love them) to live their best mid lives. Combining the power of mind-work, body-science and relationships, I joyously smash the societal barriers that are keeping us from living our best intimate lives. Whether you are young or past menopause, single or in a long-term relationship, it is never too late or too early to realize YOU ARE NOT BROKEN. With humor, candor and ease, I break down the stories that we have been told about being sexual beings, to help us play, and normalize our intimacy and health. Nothing in this podcast is personal medical advice, of course.

  • 307. Doctored - Charles Piller and Fraud in the Quest to Cure Alzheimer's
    Mar 9 2025
    “Demonstrates how some of the most accomplished and elite scientific gatekeepers may have lied, cheated, squandered trust and endangered lives.” —The Wall Street Journal In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, Dr. Kelly Casperson interviews investigative journalist Charles Piller about his newly released book, 'Doctored,' which delves into the misconduct in Alzheimer's research. They discuss the amyloid hypothesis, the role of whistleblowers, the FDA's controversial drug approvals, and the systemic issues in medical research. Piller emphasizes the importance of scientific integrity and the need for independent oversight in research while also exploring emerging theories in Alzheimer's treatment and the impact of lifestyle factors on prevention. Takeaways The amyloid hypothesis has dominated Alzheimer's research but has significant flaws. Whistleblowers play a crucial role in exposing misconduct in scientific research. The FDA's approval process for drugs can be influenced by industry relationships. Lifestyle factors such as diet and exercise can impact Alzheimer's risk. There is a growing interest in alternative theories for Alzheimer's treatment. AI can assist in detecting research fraud but also poses risks for falsification. Misinformation in health media can lead to public harm and confusion. Independent agencies are needed to investigate scientific misconduct effectively. The scientific community must improve transparency and accountability. There is hope for progress in Alzheimer's research despite current challenges.

Amazing!!! How did I not know these things?

Women’s sexual and mental health education is severely inadequate and sometimes nonexistent. I believe in Dr. Casperson‘s message “You are not broken”. We need to make this go viral!!

She continues to amaze me

A client shared Dr. C's information with me a few months ago. I have only started listening recently. I am 12 yrs post menopause and I struggle with trying to find my libido... it's hidden. I did not know I could see a urologist for this. Now I need to find one in Raleigh to go see.
Thank You!!!
