If you’ve been feeling off—more tired, more puffy, more frustrated than ever before—and you’ve asked yourself, “Is this perimenopause? Is this menopause? Or is my body just broken?” … this episode is for you.

In today’s episode, LaDawn Hickman returns with truth, transparency, and lived experience to break down the real difference between perimenopause and menopause—and why understanding where you are hormonally is the first step to finally feeling like yourself again.

She opens up about her personal health journey, shares what most doctors aren’t talking about, and equips you with grace-based, phase-specific strategies to support your weight, energy, and peace of mind—while keeping it simple.

  • Real talk about symptoms like insomnia, anxiety, and belly fat
  • LaDawn’s story (including misdiagnoses, caffeine, and corporate stress)
  • 3 empowering strategies for each phase—rooted in grace, not guilt
  • A faith-based reminder that you’re not broken—you’re evolving
  • What’s Next?!
