1:05:41Now Playing4.2.2026 #SecondOpinion w/ Dr. Ebony J. Hilton:Black Infertility Struggles. Vaping Risks. Aging Myths. What Doctors Want You to Know #SecondOpinion
This week, Dr. Ebony J. Hilton leads a powerful set of conversations that cut through confusion and get straight to what matters when it comes to your health.
Dr. Jackie Walters, OB-GYN, breast cancer survivor, and star of Bravo’s Married to Medicine, breaks down infertility—what causes it, why it disproportionately impacts the Black community, and why both women and men must be part of the conversation. She also addresses the stigma many still face and the reality behind delayed childbearing.
Aikisha Holly Colon—actress, author of Faith & Fertility, and wife of former NFL player and Super Bowl champion Willie Colon—shares her deeply personal IVF journey. She opens up about the cost of treatment, the emotional toll, and a devastating moment when not being heard by doctors led to the loss of an embryo. Her story puts a spotlight on access, inequity, and why having doctors who understand your experience can make all the difference.
The conversation then turns to vaping, as Dr. Yolanda Coleman, Chief Nurse, breaks down what’s really happening inside the body. With over 100 million users globally and millions of teens vaping, she explains the risks, the addictive nature of nicotine, and what families need to watch for as this trend continues to grow.
Finally, Stella J. Ringer, Founder and CEO of the Zeal: Aging Redefined podcast, challenges the fear surrounding aging. She shares how women can embrace every stage of life, from navigating menopause to redefining confidence, purpose, and fulfillment well beyond their 30s and 40s.
Dr. Hilton closes with a clear message: fertility is not just about having children—it reflects overall health, from stress and sleep to underlying conditions and long-term wellness. Paying attention early isn’t optional—it’s essential.
