The menopause transition can feel overwhelming, confusing, and downright uncomfortable—it can knock us off balance in every way. What if we welcomed this change not as a crisis, but as a profound invitation to learn more about our body and find a deeper alignment with who we truly are?

In this episode, Aimee is joined by Janel Anderson—a Certified Functional Medicine Nutritionist, Board Certified Nutritionist, and Doctor of Natural Medicine—who has a true gift for making hormones make sense. Together, they dive into the science and the soul of hormones in midlife, blending practical wisdom with deep empowerment for women navigating perimenopause and beyond.

In this episode, we talk about

• The "personalities" of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone—and how they shape mood, energy, and desire

• Why perimenopause is a powerful threshold into our inner Fall

• How modern life can disconnect us from our body's innate wisdom

• Simple, actionable steps to ease symptoms and support your body through change

• The seasons and soul of womanhood—how our cycles mirror nature's rhythms

• Reclaiming midlife as a time of choice, agency, and authentic self-discovery
