Okay, well, this was a flight, not a drive, but my wife and I just got back from the iHeart Podcast Awards in Austin, Texas. That was a lot of fun, and I knew it was going to be a hectic trip, so I booked a comfortable Airbnb for us that was very walkable to downtown. It was perfect.

Yeah, and nothing worse than spending half your trip stuck in traffic when you're trying to enjoy a new city, walking, even running around on foot. That is the way to do it, man. Agreed, yeah. And you know what hit me while I was there, Matt? How brilliant it is to list your own place on Airbnb when you're traveling, especially now that you can team up with a co-host who handles everything for you. Find a co-host at Airbnb.com slash host.

I at one time was homeless. Being in your own place makes a difference. I'm able to cook when I couldn't. When I go into my bedroom, I can stretch out. That lets me know I have transitioned from homeless. If these walls could talk, it would say freedom.

You're listening to I Choose Me with Jenny Garth. Hi, everyone. Welcome to I Choose Me. This podcast is all about the choices we make and where they lead us. My guest today is known for her role as Dr. Addison Montgomery on the hit shows Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice and her role on the wildly popular Netflix show Emily in Paris.

On this podcast, we talk about choosing ourselves. And today, we're going to discuss a huge way we can all choose ourselves. It's an important message, and I cannot wait to talk all about it with my guest. Please welcome Kate Walsh to the podcast. Hi. Oh my gosh, I'm really excited to talk to you. We're doing this because this subject matter that you are here to talk about is so important, and I can't wait for you to share this information with our listeners.

I remember, though, the moment you came on to my TV. I loved your character, Dr. Addison. Yes. No, doctor. I started with an M.

Yeah, Addison Montgomery. Addison Montgomery. Oh, that's so close. God, you're Addison Montgomery. You were so badass. You were wonderful. And I don't know. I just... Something ignited in me as a woman when I saw you on screen because you were strong and beautiful and intelligent. I don't know. I really loved your character. Thank you. Thanks so much. You're so welcome. I mean, I could sing your praises, but, you know, we all... I mean, it's all the things. So thank you very, very much. And I'm so...

to come on and talk to you about, you know, advocating for our health and partnering for me with Grail and MSED testing. Very exciting. Yes. I mean, I don't know anyone whose life has not been touched by cancer or getting that terrible call or test results. And

And including me, you know, both my parents were diagnosed with cancer. My dad died of lung cancer. They didn't have any kind of early detection in those days. My mother, gratefully, was a breast cancer survivor. And after a double mastectomy, was able to live another life.

30 years, you know, in great health, but early detection is where it's at. We know that with early detection, there are more options. So when I was approached by Grail for the multi-cancer early detection test, I was super excited to partner because this is

literally technology that we've never had before. That's what's so exciting. And I love, I, you know, I don't love that you have this passion behind why you're involved, but there's such a meaning to your why when you're spreading this information. So that really comes through, I think. And people know that it's so authentic and like, this is something we have to talk about.

That you have this personal connection. I'm so sorry about your dad. Oh, thank you. But what a, I mean, I'm, I've got to be honest. I'm terrified of getting cancer. It is. I mean, I'm terrified of getting any illness. Like I don't, I don't want that. I don't think anybody wants that. No, no. And it's so powerful. Um,

technology today because what you're talking about, this M-SED test, what is the full name of it? Multi-cancer early detection. Multi-cancer early detection. Yes, and it's incredible technology. It's one blood draw and it can test for many different types of cancer, even some of the deadliest. Now this is suggested in conjunction with regular cancer screenings, so it's not meant to replace

ovarian or you know colon retinal cancer screenings or what have you or breast cancer your screenings regular mammograms and ultrasounds this is you know in conjunction and you can find out if you're if you're a candidate for you can go to genpossible.com there's a quiz there you know we suggest talking to your doctor about it seeing if it's right for you but we know

It's a fact that with early detection, there are more options for treatment, full stop. And we also know that there's a big psychological component to self-care and well-being. It's scary. It's scary to go and advocate for yourself. It's scary to look your fears in the eye and go, oh my gosh. But I was so interested. I mean, it truly is generation possible. We did not have this. We didn't have it.

10 years ago. It's just, this is just so exciting to me that you can, you know, go and talk to your doctor and see, is this something that's right for me? And then I found out, which I didn't know that after 50 or 13 times more likely to, uh,

be vulnerable to cancer. So I was like, whoa, okay. So, I mean, my dad wasn't diagnosed until he was 58. My mother was always getting mammograms and had biopsies and ultrasounds and everything. And she wasn't, you know, she got it when she was 62. So it's just great to have this information, to have this access to this technology. I

And to go to genpossible.com and see, you know, it even shows you. And if you get nervous, because I get nervous when I go to doctors. For sure. I did too. I got nervous signing on to the podcast.

to the website that you just gave us last night. I took a deep dive. That's what I mean. Yeah. It's like, ah, I don't want to look at it. But it's, it is the most important thing. We're nothing without our health. And so, but there is a questionnaire on there if you saw that, so it can help you even understand how to have a conversation with your doctor. And I just, just,

Did you? Yes. What was your experience? Well, I wasn't shocked that it suggested that I talk to my doctor about getting the test. And I've already sent an email. So I'm very grateful that this conversation is happening because I wouldn't have known about this technology and I wouldn't have had the impulse or the urge to

to take action. And I think that's what someone like you talking about this, that's why it's so important or just bringing this to people's awareness. Yes. I mean, it's good that April is national cancer prevention and early detection month. And yeah, I know that, like you said before, we've all been personally affected by cancer in one way or another.

And it's not fun. Nobody wants to hear that test result come back negative or positive, however it works. I'm not sure, but I'll know soon because I'm going to get it.

Good. I know. I plan to get it as well. It's also, it's just that for me, I think that there's so much information out there too, that can be overwhelming for people as well, that you're like, oh my gosh, what do I do? And then people are just like freezing and they're not going to do anything. You're like, I'm just going to go pull my, put the covers over my head and pretend this is not happening. Yeah.

So this is something that I think it's so easy and accessible. And again, you're not doing it alone. You go to genpossible.com, take the quiz, talk to your doctor, see if it's right for you. This is not something you just go in on your own and go, okay, and roll the dice and see. And just that...

again, not to hit the nail on the head too many times, but early detection is critical. It gives more options for treatment. We know that. I talk a lot about that with heart health and early detection and prevention. I think it's so key. And I'm really diligent about taking care of myself. I have some bad

bad family genetics in a few areas. So getting my scans and my exams is so important to me. And yeah, I want to know so that I can do something about it. I just completed my blood, my fresh blood work, my pap smear, my plaque test for my heart. I have my mammogram scheduled. And that's a lot to like coordinate and wrangle around if you're doing it on your own like I am.

And so the thought of going to one blood test, which can detect a lot of the things that I'm looking for individually, that's really cool.

It's, it's so great that it's one blood draw and it can test for even some of those deadly cancers. It's incredible. Actually, we've never had this to my parents generation did not have this technology. And we know too, just what you're saying. You were just saying that how much work it takes to get all this stuff done. And even my partner is like, I got to get my eyes test. I mean, these are basic things. Like, yeah, I think I should get my hearing test. And I'm like, have you done it? Have you made the appointment? Um,

No, I haven't. It's like people, and I think we're so, you know, socialized and we're in this, the great thing about this age of information is that it's changing our consciousness around self-care is changing, but it's still, I think for most people, the hardest thing to do, they put themselves last.

on the list. And it's like, no, and they wait until something is wrong. Right. But this is just the, you know, green light go to not wait until something's wrong. Have yourself checked out and statistics of like, oh my gosh, over 50, 13 times more susceptible to cancers. Right. Okay. Yeah. It's, it's like a no brainer, but I've been there. I've had that

calendar scheduled 9 a.m., call the doctor, schedule this appointment, whatever. And I will take that when I get busy, I will take that event in my calendar and I'll slide it to the next day. And the next day will come and go and I'll be like, oops, got to get that done tomorrow. And it will slide for weeks sometimes. And I feel terrible about that because I probably, actually, I know I wouldn't do that for anybody that I love. I would get that done at 9 a.m. on Monday morning when I said I would.

Right? Isn't that amazing?

Yes.

Yeah, they were pushing back about that. They're like, why do you need it? I'm like, because my mother had breast cancer. Like, it's still a little early for you. I'm like, no, it's not. So I've had to push and advocate so often. Aging is a natural process, as we all know. And we at the Deep Dive, we embrace it. But I will tell you one thing about aging that I don't care for.

It's the symptoms that stem from changing hormones, especially as you get closer to perimenopause and menopause. That's why, listeners, I want to tell you about Happy Mammoth's Hormone Harmony. It's all over social media.

Happy Mammoth, the company that created Hormone Harmony, uses science-backed ingredients that have been proven to work for women. Hormone Harmony is perfect for those menopause symptoms that put a woman's life on hold. Hot flashes, night sweats, racing thoughts, low moods, poor sleep, gas, no desire to be in bed next to someone, if you know what I mean. Yeah, Hormone Harmony can help with all of these things.

We love LA. We have lived in LA for almost 40 years, you guys.

And it never gets boring because there's so much to do. When it comes to LA, for me, it's definitely the food. There's so much food here. So many options. The walk-up windows and the rooftop bars, the year-end alfresco dining. That's my favorite. Los Angeles is really a culinary thrill ride. Sure.

sure to leave visitors hungry for more. You never know. You could have tacos for breakfast, sushi for lunch, Italian for dinner. There's so many options here. Or maybe you're more into shopping.

We all know how important it is to take care of our physical and mental health. But what about our sexual health? I've been there, feeling stuck and frustrated because I was never in the mood. That's why I started taking Addi. And let me tell you,

I've seen firsthand what a difference it can make. Addi is the only FDA-approved pill for certain premenopausal women frustrated by low libido that's clinically proven to increase our interest in sex, give us more satisfying sex, and lower the stress we feel from low libido.

But one of the things I wanted to circle back to what you were saying, like me first or that way, if it was your friend, you wouldn't push it off. If it was your friend that had a really important appointment, you or with her or whatever with them, you wouldn't put, put, put them on hold or push it and push it. But one of the things I did, cause I, even though I did play a doctor on TV, I would get super nervous. And so I brought people, I would bring someone with me to my appointments, you know, like when I was going through back in the day, fertility stuff, I'm like, I,

I'm going to go in this office, I'm going to leave my body and dissociate because I'm so scared and nervous. And I can't. So I'd bring a friend with me. I remember my girlfriend came. This was in L.A.,

And she brought her little Yorkie. And I'm like, okay, Corinne, you're coming with me because you take notes and ask the questions that I'm going to probably forget to ask. So I think that, you know, maybe that's a new way to think about putting me first or putting ourselves first, you know, is like bring a friend with you. And also, let's be honest, I'd rather have a coffee any day or, you know, run a mile than go to the doctor's appointments, you know? So I'm like, okay, maybe make it fun.

Make it like a lunch. We'll have lunch and you can come with me. And then next month we'll have lunch again and I'll go with you. I like that idea. Girl time. That's called stacking, by the way. That's like, you know, when you stack things in your calendar. I do that all the time when I have something like a lunch or something. I really am so busy I can't do it. But I'll stack that on my way to another meeting. And then I'll stack a workout somewhere. You know, like I'm a day stacker. So that theory works well for me.

Yes. Yes. You know? Yeah. Cause it's not, I think that's, it's getting support. And I think that, you know, again, I can only speak for myself, but it's, I think to deal with medical stuff and with our health is just, it can be really intimidating and, and it's still new. Yeah.

Not just this technology with Grail's MZ stuff, but it's still so new, this consciousness, this idea of prevention and early detection. So it's just important. We're just retraining ourselves in the way we think. And with this...

with the access that we have with this early detection testing, it's really, it is truly gen generation possible. So it's, it's exciting. Yep. And you said before early detection, prevention, longevity, it's all about implementing things in our daily routine that will have a positive impact, you know,

for our overall health, not just the things that we're the most scared of. And I was wondering, what are some of your healthy practices, anything that you think people should be trying out other than this amazing test? Well, one of the things, I mean, I'm sure that, you know, look at when I was in my 20s and 30s and even 40s, I had a totally different lifestyle. You know, I was working

I could survive on four hours sleep. I would thrive. I was like, I'm fine. You know, go out and then go to work 17 hours, then go out, you know, go home, go out, whatever, eat burgers and drink and smoke and do coffee and all the things. And then that changes. You're like, that no longer works for me. That doesn't, that just doesn't work. And yeah,

Yeah. So those days are over. Those days are over. My life completely changed. I think it's really cool. This younger generation has so much consciousness and awareness and, and, and are so in many ways, so just so much healthier. But I,

I work out. I changed even my workout stuff. Like once I learned about the possibility of having a compromised bone density for me, I'm like, oh, weight training. I have to incorporate weight training into, you know, beyond just, you know, and Pilates is great. I've always loved Pilates, yoga, yoga.

I love like, you know, all of the things I sort of mix it up. But weights was a big thing for me to incorporate into my practice. People have always been so scared of weights. They think they're going to get like. They're going to get big and bulky. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. It's not, it's not true. I've been doing weights for a number of years now and I don't feel like I'm a, I'm going to go grease up and do the show. I know. No, that's, I think that that is sort of like a, yeah, a misnomer that you think you're going to become. I, but I get it. You're like,

oh, I don't want to get bulky. But I, but it's truly amazing that it actually helps strengthen your bones. I mean, it's, I've taken tests before and after and you're like, oh, you were sort of in osteopenia. Now you're not like, okay, great. It's working. So I love things that are effective. I eat, I like to eat food. I like to cook. I'm half Italian. I'm like, I'm going to cook.

And I'm going to eat, but everything in moderation and sleep is a big one. Sleep hygiene. It's been in the zeitgeist for a number of years now, but it's really, really critical for me. And I feel it. And then hormone health, all of it. I'm like, guess what? Here I am. It's happening. Oh, yeah. And what can you do? You have to embrace it and just love yourself even more through all of it.

Because if we try to fight it, it's not good for us. It adds more stress, changes our hormones. It just sort of offsets everything and puts your body in that state of stress. And it's not doing the things it's supposed to be doing, which is keeping us healthy and strong. Yeah. And I think too that, I don't know, I can only speak for myself, I guess, but I feel like, I'll say as women, there isn't a lot of teaching or consciousness around rest, around

acceptance around like, okay, this is like, now it's changed. Things are changing. I think there, I think there's more of it than ever before in many ways, like, and there's more options for women and we're living longer and,

and, and healthier, but it's also like, oh yeah, we have to like, part of that is acceptance. Like I am not who I was in my, in my twenties. I'm not who I was in my thirties. And I love who I am. That doesn't, it's not a negative thing, but it's also everything is different.

And just like you said, to try to fight that is ridiculous. It's like, no, I can't try to go back, you know, get that. I feel like so, you know, being in the industry that we're in, I feel like I've seen so many, I won't just say women, so many people try to fight it so, so hard instead of embracing it and resetting the narrative in their head, because we both come from an industry that gave us pretty toxic narratives about aging. And I think all women understand,

in the world are given a lot of toxic messages about how we should look and how we should feel and how we should present ourselves and all of those things. But yes, it's about accepting where you are and embracing it and like loving yourself enough to hold your own hand through any of those uncertain times when you're

When you're grappling with like, I'm aging and I'm changing, my body is changing and my needs are changing. It's something really interesting to sort of like embrace and investigate as we got, because I'm 53, I just turned 53 recently. And I've learned more in my 50s about most things in life, but specifically about myself than I ever have before. Yeah.

Yeah, same, same. Isn't it cool? It's really cool. And I think you find your people and you find community, you find people that are like-minded in that sense of community.

Because other, I mean, resistance is futile, but also like, oh yeah, our bodies are changing. How cool. Just like, I'm not going to look the way I looked when I was seven, when I'm 10 or when I'm 13 or 21. Like, no, we are constantly evolving and changing. And we have this great gift of living longer and an awareness of how to take really good care of ourselves. Yeah.

hey there folks i am matt and i'm joel from the how to money show matt it's april i've got spring break on my mind please tell me you got something fun lined up oh dude typically i am a planner but we're actually switching things up this year we're going to go a bit more spontaneous i've been searching on airbnb for some inspiration you know we've narrowed it down to trying to find some warmer temperatures we kind of got that spring fever so we're gonna try to find something along the coast maybe

Maybe some sand to dip my toes into. I like it. But how about you? Okay, so we've actually got our plans locked in. I'm taking the fam to this charming little Bavarian-style town called Helen. It's up in the Georgia mountains. I know about Helen. Yeah, well, I found the perfect cabin on Airbnb, completely with a hot tub, which I'm definitely going to need after running a trail half marathon while I'm up there, too. Oh, that is right. I forgot about the half marathon, man. It sounds like an adventure...

And you know what? While you're enjoying that hot tub, you could actually have your own place listed on Airbnb, earning some extra cash while you are away. True. And now with Airbnb's co-host feature, I hear it's easier than ever. For anyone who's been overwhelmed by the idea of hosting, a co-host can do the hosting for you and help manage your reservations and your guests. Find a co-host at Airbnb.com slash host.

I at one time was homeless. Being in your own place makes a difference. I'm able to cook when I couldn't. When I go into my bedroom, I can stretch out. That lets me know I have transitioned from homeless. If these walls could talk, it would say freedom. JPMorgan Chase Community Development Banking understands that the buildings we invest in are more than just four walls. They are you. They are us. They are the Bay Area.

I should also mention in the holistic aspect of all that meditation, community joy. I have a joy list. I'd have a dry erase board in my office and I have a list of 20 things, 20 fun things to do. This was on suggestion of an old, an older lady friend mentor of mine. She's like, what's your do a joy list, write down 20 things that give you joy and,

and try to do five a day. And I was like, hold up. That's a lot. But listen, this is really interesting. She's like, it can be as innocuous as taking a nap or a walk or calling a girlfriend or hanging out with your cats or dogs or whatever. It can be as big as an exotic travel. It could be seeing a movie. It could be cooking. It could be enjoying grocery shopping. So it can be...

any of these things, you know, um, singing, just dancing around the house. So I just make a list of 20 from, you know, like I said, exotic travel or travel to just, I like cooking, you know, cats, cats are at the top. So then my guy, it's like Andrew, but, um,

He's around here somewhere. Yeah. But it's like you actually find out. First of all, for me, I was super aware of how much conditions I put on fun. Like, oh, it has to be earned. I haven't done X, Y, and Z. I need to earn that fun or earn my joy. And like, nah, that starts to go. So that is really my little joy list. And then meditation. Love that.

Meditation's a big one. Do you meditate every day? I do and I don't. I'm in and out. But I also try to be kind about that. I'm not a rigid person. And I'm like, my life is different every day. And so I'm also, look, I live in Australia most of the time. I still have my apartment in New York. But I'm really lucky to be by the ocean. Nature is one of my greatest salves and joys. So I...

I, you know, kind of want to see keep my schedule. I have a friend who says she has a ventilated schedule. So if I can, so as much as I can, I can stack to go up, then I have like real like chill days of like, what's what's the world going to bring? What's life going to bring me today? I like that.

Yeah, I tend to get super wrapped up in my schedule and my calendar and all the entries in it. And I got to check everything off in the day or else I have even more to do the next day. But I think, yeah, it's really important. I'm absolutely going to put a joy list up on my wall. I'm telling you just 20 things. It could be a nap. It can be a crossword. It can be just anything.

calling a girlfriend. It's just, but just to be conscious of it. And then I have it and I take it off and I'm like, okay, did I do my five things today? And then you're aware of like, actually, this is really cool. I can, cause I have that habit of anxiety and worry of like, oh, and the meditation definitely helps with that. But I'm working out all the things help, but I'm like, oh, there's not enough time. And I'm like, okay, but okay.

Okay. But that's just a thought and a feeling, but actually look at all the delightful things that I got to do today, you know? So I, those are such, such good tips. It's funny. You said you played a doctor on TV for many years.

Because I don't know about you, but like people think that you are a doctor somehow in your real life. I guess you are really good at playing the doctor. So there you go. Thanks. Yeah. No, it's so crazy. Switching gears for a second. I mean, a lot of our listeners love Emily in Paris.

Yeah. Are we going to be seeing you coming back or how's that going to work out for you? I don't know. Not this season. I have no idea. I would love to go back. I mean, it was what a joy. I mean, working in Paris and I love Darren's story. So fun. And I mean, and, um,

Yeah, I mean, he's just a delight and love. I just, so that was so fun. So I have no idea. We'll see. But it's, I loved playing that character. It was so ridiculous and funny and creating their costumes with Madeline Patusi and Patricia Field. It was just delightful. So it was a good dream. I mean, just that alone was...

Being dressed by those two powerhouses in Paris. Like there's so many upsides of that job. Those are all on my joy list. I'm going to go get dressed by Trish Field in Paris. Yeah, it was just all a good dream. It was all a good dream. Like, wait, what? We're shooting at Versailles today? Oh, you've shut down the Eiffel Tower so we can go to the restaurant at the top? Okay.

Like, it's just nuts. It was just like so much fun. I'm so glad. And I think I'm so thrilled for all of the women on that show and the guys, but it's because it is just fun and escapist and delightful. And so, yeah, I don't know.

really good time but right now I'm doing what am I I'm just developing a show to shoot here a streaming show so we'll see how that goes you know it takes forever to develop you said you are happy where you are living in Australia I asked if you were going to be if you're working there and you said no I'm just here for love and I'm so I love that so much

Yeah. Yeah. You seem really happy and like whole. And I don't know, there's just a beautiful light coming out of you even at this early hour.

You're radiating good things. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. I want to circle back before we end this and remind people where they can go. Give us the website one more time. Absolutely. It's genpossible.com. This is for Grail's MSED test. MSED stands for Multicancer Early Detection Test.

go to genpossible.com. There's a quiz there to help you understand if you think this is viable for you, how to have a conversation with your doctor about it. You definitely want to have a conversation with your doctor and see what they think. What if they say no though, Kate? Like what if I went to the website, I took the quiz, I'm really intrigued by this. And I even watched the testimonials. Like I went...

Deep. And what if I go to my doctor and say, I have an experience similar to what you had and they push back and they say, oh, you don't need that. Or...

I can't order that for you or whatever. They should be able to order it. A, they should be able to order it. B, if you're over 50, then that's one of the things I had said earlier is I realized that you're 13 times more likely to be vulnerable to cancer. So that's a pretty high statistic. If there's any concern in your family, I mean, I just really encourage, I don't think you're going to get pushback from a doctor, but yeah,

there's all of the information is on gen possible. So, uh, yes, yes, it's there. And I always encourage people to really be, um,

advocate for their own health. You know, I certainly have had to and it's critical and this is a great asset. It is early detection. We know with early detection, there are more options for treatment and this is not meant, P.S. I want to also just reiterate, it's not meant to be substituting for the regular cancer screenings, mammograms, ultrasounds,

you know, ovarian, all of the other typical cancers that we are colon rectal. We, we still screen for those with those tests, but this has been, it's in conjunction, it's one blood draw. It can screen for many, many, many cancers. So yeah, it's, it truly is generation possible. Yeah. Yes. It's exciting. So exciting. I'm so glad that you shared this with me and with, with everybody listening. It's really important. And I think,

Also, I hear this a lot when it's sort of directed at me, but I'm just going to reflect it back to you. What you're doing by speaking up about your challenges in life, your health challenges, your mental challenges, whatever it is, it makes people feel so less alone, so braver. Yes.

When they have somebody leading the way like this. So I commend you for that. And thank you for using your voice. It's really so much. You're so welcome before I let you go though. Kate Walsh, what was your last? I choose me moment. Oh, what a great question. I'm going to, I'm not going to lie. It was amazing.

Uh, earlier today, it's just like, I just, it was really pretty innocuous. I'm like, I'm not going to do that work. I'm going to go take a nap. I did a crossword and I took a nap. Does that count? That's amazing. Oh, it counts. Big time. Okay. I'm going to go take a nap. I'm going to do a crossword first and then we'll take a nap. I love that.

I just gonna, I'm not gonna lie. I love bed. If I used to joke when I was in LA, if I could take bed down the 405, I would have, I love reclining. I love me too. So I love rest. I know me too. And I think

I swear to God, there should just be like a whole episode on relaxing and women. And that is it. So hard. Rest, rest, rest. It's really hard. I feel like rest means you have to deal with, for me, anxiety, the worry, the am I good and all the negative, all the stuff that comes like, wait, who do you think you are? What are you doing? Who are you? It's so important, though. We ought to take care of ourselves. We have to choose ourselves. And that's a perfect example.

Well, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Good day. I don't know. That's all I can say in Australian. Good day. I hope you have a wonderful day. Good day. Okay. Thank you. Thanks, Jenny. Take good care. You too. Thanks so much.
