Hey —
There's an independent magazine I've been reading called After Forty Feel. It's research-led editorial for adults 40-60. Their angle is: read the actual published research (NEJM, Lancet, JAMA), translate it into plain language, link to every source so you can verify everything.
Two things that stood out:
1) They don't take supplement-brand sponsorships, ever
2) Every claim links to the primary paper
The recent cover story on HRT after the 2024 reanalyses was the clearest thing I've read on the topic in years.

Worth your inbox if you're in the 40-60 window or thinking about it.
For partners
If you've enjoyed the magazine, the highest-leverage things you can do:
Forward one Sunday letter to one specific person who you know is navigating this decade. Generic "you might like this" shares convert at 2%. "I thought of YOU when I read this" forwards convert at 30%.
Reply to the Sunday letter with feedback, corrections, or topic requests. Every reply increases the inbox-deliverability score for everyone, and Alexander reads every one.
If you're a clinician, the HRT conversation checklist is designed to be printable and handed out at perimenopause visits. Free, no permission needed.

The why
The wellness-content economy rewards volume and supplement sponsorship. We've made a deliberate choice to optimize for trust and depth instead. That model only works if the audience grows through real recommendation, not paid acquisition.
