Welcome to episode 39 of Antigravity Wellness! Feeling exhausted by 2 PM? Forgetting why you walked into a room? Lying awake at 3 AM despite being completely drained? You’re not alone—and you’re definitely not broken.

In this special episode, Dr. Nicole Smith, DNP, shares her full guest presentation from the Women in Business Conference 2025 in Kennewick, Washington. She reveals the truth about perimenopause and menopause that’s affecting over 50 million working women in the United States—and what to do about it.

In this episode, you’ll discover:
✨ Why 73% of perimenopausal women report symptoms affecting their work performance—and what’s really happening in your body
✨ The 4–10 year hormonal transition that starts in your mid-30s to late 40s (and why no one prepared you for it)
✨ Why the healthcare system is failing women—and the new model that’s changing everything
✨ The fitness and nutrition trap: why fasted cardio, endless HIIT classes, and eating salads all day are making you worse
✨ Actionable strategies you can start TODAY: protein goals, smart training, hydration, stress management, and more
✨ How to advocate for yourself in healthcare settings and what labs to request from your provider
✨ The workplace changes that are helping women thrive (not just survive) through this transition

The Real Talk:
60% of perimenopausal women experience memory and concentration issues. 80% report crushing fatigue. 85% struggle with sleep. And 25% are considering leaving their careers entirely because of symptoms they don’t understand.

But here’s the truth: Your power isn’t diminishing—it’s transforming. Your best years aren’t behind you—they’re ahead of you.
