The Midlife Feast

#161 - Season 6 Kickoff: Kitchen Table Talk: My Sister and I Dish on Menopause and My New Book


Listen Later

This week’s episode is extra special for TWO reasons! For one, we are kicking off Season 6, and my sister Friedel is interviewing me! We’re diving into my new book, Eat to Thrive During Menopause, and why I felt called to write it after my own surprising start to perimenopause at 37.

Instead of talking about what to cut out, I share why I focus on what to add, such as fiber, phytoestrogens, and carbs that actually satisfy. We also bust some common menopause myths and talk about how intuitive eating can help you feel at peace with food in this season of life.

Friedel shares some of her favourite recipes from the book  (pumpkin flax muffins, anyone?) along with some of her behind-the-scenes memories of me while I was writing it! 

Join us for a sweet conversation about food, midlife, and finding joy in this season of life.
