“Women’s health is never textbook. Complexity is the rule, not the exception.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond

Right now, most health professionals are still being trained to treat simple, textbook cases of perimenopause and menopause, leaving millions of women without the comprehensive, evidence-based care they deserve. At the same time, there’s a growing wave of public awareness, policy changes, and cultural conversation that’s putting menopause squarely in the spotlight. Women in perimenopause and menopause are tired of being dismissed, and they are actively seeking something different.​

For women’s health practitioners, this growing need is a significant opportunity. In the United States alone, 1.3 million women enter menopause each year, and most of them want more support than they can get from social media and generic hormone protocols. Women in midlife are looking for practitioners who can combine nutrition, lifestyle changes, nervous system support, and coaching that fits their unique needs.​

In this episode, I’m kicking off our Confidence in Complexity series by exploring why perimenopause and menopause care are the next frontier in women’s health, and why this is the perfect time to specialize. We’ll look at the numbers driving this global shift, the new policies and employer benefits emerging, why this field is growing faster than almost any other area in women’s health, and how a lack of training in traditional programs has left a massive gap that you are uniquely equipped to fill.

Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!
