The “You’re Fine. It's Normal.” Lie: Dr. Kim Einhorn on How Women Can Get The Midlife Care They Deserve
In our "best of" recap of Season Six, we revisit our conversation with Dr. Kim Einhorn and why perimenopause isn’t “all in your head”—and you don’t have to white-knuckle your way through it.
Hello Warriors!
As we wrap up 2025 and lean into a season of reflection, reset, and a little well-earned exhale, we’re sharing the BEST OF SEASON SIX of The Suburban Warrior Podcast—because the conversations that change the way we care for ourselves deserve an encore.

Dr. Kim Einhorn
This week’s featured re-listen is one our community kept coming back to: my conversation with Dr. Kim Einhorn, board-certified OB-GYN and founder of The MP Collective, a membership-based gynecology practice dedicated to caring for women in perimenopause and menopause in Bryn Mawr, PA.
Why this episode? Because Dr. Einhorn says the quiet part out loud: the system isn’t built for midlife women. She breaks down why so many of us walk into appointments with a list of symptoms—brain fog, anxiety, joint pain, disrupted sleep, weight changes, low libido, UTIs, dry skin and eyes—and walk out with “You’re fine. It’s normal.”
In this conversation, Dr. Einhorn explains what’s really happening behind the scenes (hint: hormones can behave more like the stock market than a steady rhythm), why so many doctors were never properly trained in menopause care, and what it looks like to treat women with the time, dignity, and whole-body attention they deserve. She also shares why she built a practice rooted in listening first, then looking at the full picture—nutrition, fitness, stress, sleep, and prevention—so women can feel like themselves again (and sometimes better than ever).
If you’ve ever thought, “Something is off, but I can’t prove it,” or “Why does no one connect the dots?”—this episode will feel like a deep exhale and a roadmap forward.
Here’s to advocating for your health, honoring your body through every transition, and stepping into the season ahead with grit and grace!
