Blueprint Breakers

My conversation with Kim Jacques, Intuitive Eating Coach for women, started with a focus on good health and having a positive relationship with our bodies, but we explored the dynamics of aging, and embracing our full selves as we head into midlife and beyond!

We hear about Kim's personal health journey and what it took for her to learn to be connected and listen to her body. Have you heard the term "Middlescense"? I hadn't heard of it until speaking to Kim and it made so much sense in describing this season of life!

About Kim Jacques

Kim has been a wellness professional since 1999 with a passion for helping people reconnect to the power that exists within their own bodies. Her career was inspired by her own recovery from a childhood injury and she has been an educator, massage therapist, polarity therapist, health coach and the founder of a community wellness center.  Kim embodies her "midlife crisis" by embracing the definition of "crisis" as a time when difficult and important decisions must be made. In 2020 she made what she calls a midlife informed "pandemic pivot" selling her wellness center and personal belongings in exchange for a sabbatical and an abundant minimalist lifestyle. During this time she became a certified Intuitive Eating Counselor & shifted her career towards helping women to discover what exists beyond the mind games of dieting so they can enjoy a beautiful relationship with food and their bodiesMidlife changes can seem complicated and confusing, but Kim provides simple mindset and lifestyle strategies to help women thrive through midlife & beyond.

Knowledge is power! Finally, conversations are happening about menopause.

75 million women are in perimenopause, menopause, or postmenopause in the U.S., with 6,000 more reaching menopause each day.

75% of women who seek medical care are left untreated.

38% of those in late perimenopause experience symptoms of depression.

80% of OB-GYN residents admit to being ill-prepared to discuss menopause.

In today's episode, Amy shares what she learned from the recent live event Menoposium by "Let's Talk Menopause".

She also shares another resource, Menoclarity, a group of experts who focus on sharing balanced information about menopause without hype or scare-mongering.
