What does it really feel like to age inside a quantum health lifestyle? In this refreshingly honest conversation, I sit down with my friend and colleague, Kelly Bento, founder of Soleil-Well and expert in red light therapy, to talk about the real journey of midlife, menopause, and mitochondrial health.

We hold nothing back as we share both the frustrations (because yes, sometimes it sucks!) and the deep gratitude of moving through this stage of life with quantum awareness. From hormonal shifts to the power of light, from the vulnerability of changing bodies to the privilege of living in alignment with nature—we cover it all.

We also touch on red light therapy and why it’s a tool both Kelly and I rely on daily—but don’t worry, we’ve got a whole second episode coming soon in my Red Light Therapy Series dedicated to diving deeper into that!

✨ Whether you’re in menopause, perimenopause, or simply curious about aging well, this conversation is a dose of honesty, humor, and hope.

Listen in to learn:

• ​Why mitochondria are central to how we age (and how resilient we feel)
• ​How quantum health practices can soften the menopause transition
• ​The paradox of midlife: grief, gratitude, and growth all at once
• ​Why community and light-based healing matter more than ever right now

Kelly is living proof that aging doesn’t have to mean decline—it can mean deeper wisdom, embodiment, and vitality when we partner with light.
