On this episode of Bone Talk, we’re excited to be talking to Dr. Ellen Albertson, aka The Midlife Whisperer™. Dr. Albertson is a psychologist, registered dietitian, health and wellness coach, Reiki master, and mindful self-compassion teacher. With over 30 years of experience in counseling, coaching, and healing, she brings a holistic approach to her transformational work.

Tuning into Bone Talk feels like pulling up a chair to a thoughtful, necessary conversation that often goes unheard. Produced by the Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation, this podcast moves beyond simple medical advice, weaving together the real human stories and expert insights that define the landscape of bone health. Each episode brings a different voice to the forefront-you might hear a researcher explaining a breakthrough in treatment, a caregiver sharing their daily challenges, or a policy advocate discussing systemic change. It’s this mosaic of perspectives from patients, doctors, innovators, and advocates that gives the discussion its depth and urgency. While osteoporosis is a central focus, the dialogue naturally expands to encompass holistic well-being, nutrition, fitness, and the science of healthy aging. The goal isn’t just to inform but to equip you with practical strategies and a sense of community, emphasizing how protecting bone strength is fundamentally about preserving your independence and capacity for an active life. This isn't a clinical lecture; it's a resource built on genuine conversation, making complex topics accessible and relevant for anyone invested in their long-term health.
