In this masterclass replay episode, I open up about the real, often messy journey through perimenopause and menopause. As a functional medicine diagnostic nutritionist and medical exercise specialist, I've seen firsthand how overwhelming and confusing this stage of life can be—not just for my clients, but in my own experience as well.

Let's dive in!

Key Topics Covered:

• Recognizing and understanding symptoms of perimenopause and menopause (brain fog, apathy, sleep issues, mood changes, weight gain, digestive challenges, etc.)

• The importance of listening to your body and tracking patterns over time

• Navigating information overload and focusing on what matters for your unique health

• How to advocate for yourself and communicate effectively with healthcare providers

• The role of metabolic health, digestion, and hormonal changes in women's health

• The impact of gut health, food sensitivities, and histamine on overall well-being

• Personalized testing: blood work, stool, and hair analysis for deeper insights

• The limitations of conventional lab results and the value of functional medicine approaches

• Strategies for supporting your nervous system, hormones, and emotional health

• The importance of education, community, and personalized support during perimenopause and menopause

• Practical advice for lifestyle, nutrition, and supplement choices

• How to become the CEO of your own health and make empowered decisions
