Women hear a lot about their health. What they don’t always get are straight answers — or the feeling that someone is really listening. Take Her Word for It is a women’s health podcast from Hoag built on a simple idea: women know their bodies, and what they’re experiencing deserves to be heard and taken seriously. Hosted by Anusha Wijeyakumar, a Hoag wellness consultant, each episode gets candid about the questions, changes and experiences that shape women’s lives — from hormones, sex and menopause to mental health, relationships, prevention and everything in between. Anusha brings real questions to Hoag physicians, clinicians and experts who pair the science with something just as important: listening to women. Together, they sort through the noise, challenge outdated assumptions and get to answers women can actually use. When a woman tells you what she’s experiencing, take her word for it.

It’s time to talk about the part of wellness that almost always stays behind closed doors. We are spending a fortune on fitness trends and clean eating yet completely ignoring our sexual health and relational intimacy. This week, Anusha sits down with OB/GYN and sexual wellness expert Dr. Stephanie Davis for an unfiltered, evidence-based reality check on female desire. Together, they move past the superficial advice to explore how modern stress, chronic burnout, and conditions like PMOS (Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome) physically hijack your hormone cascade and shut down your libido. Whether you are navigating hormonal shifts, feeling completely disconnected from your partner, or simply exhausted by the mental load of daily life, this episode delivers a data-backed blueprint to lower your nervous system’s alarm system, establish psychological safety, and reclaim your pleasure - without spending a single dime.
