    That’s why I’ve brought expert Brian Keane onto the podcast to offer insight on optimally evolving your healthy habits to move with you through this wonderful season of life.

    Brian also shares the most overlooked opportunities for building sustainable, effective wellness habits in midlife.

                    “We can sometimes fail to see that the small things make a massive difference, whereas in other areas of life, you will do small things with your partner, with your son, with your daughter, and you know that they compound– putting them to bed, reading the story, having that time, you know that these small little things add up to building up that relationship and making it stronger. But with exercise, it's very easy to take an all or nothing approach.”

                    At the end of a busy year, you’re probably feeling like you’ve been running on empty while pouring into everyone else. 

                    So in this reflective episode, I invite you to pause and look back on 2025 with honesty and compassion for yourself.

                    Together, we address the exhaustion so many midlife women are carrying and create space for a much-needed reset after a full and demanding year. 

                    You’ll be guided through what truly worked in 2025, what you’re ready to release, and what you want to consciously carry forward as you turn the page. 

                    With a focus on discernment, alignment, and intention—hallmarks of the perimenopausal journey—this episode offers 12 powerful reflection questions to help you find clarity on all you’ve gone through this year.

                                “I feel like this is the season of slowing down or at least becoming a bit more discerning about what we're saying yes to and what we're saying no to.”

                                 “I want to invite you into an end-of-year reflection practice, not the kind that's overwhelming or guilt-inducing. Just real simple questions that help us reconnect with what worked, what didn't, and who we want to be, and who we need to be in the next year to come because without reflection, we are destined to repeat.”

                                “May 2026 be your most vibrant, energized, and aligned year yet– may you get all the wins, or at least one, right? Give me the wins!”

                                              “It's just one thing after the other. It's so exhausting. Even though you may be smiling, I bet sometimes you're not. And people pick up on that energy. Family picks up on that energy.”

                                              “The key is to remember that your energy is sacred. You have more power than you think to protect it. So if you take anything away from this episode, let it be this– you matter. Your well-being matters.”

And as you see that signal, the goal is [to] go refuel. Let me use this opportunity to go refuel. Perimenopause is the time to start getting some things in place to refuel: changing your diet, incorporating more protein, but also fiber. Looking at what you may be depleted in to refuel.”

                                                                 “I want to really change that narrative of what we do for our health, how we think of ourselves in health, and start those conversations earlier.”

We have to be expanded to come back, and if we don't allow for that growth, then we are not resilient. And we know that mentally and emotionally and physically, the body is built to be resilient, but we have to teach it that as well.”

What a lot of women don't realize is you can be having hot flashes but not consciously registering you're having hot flashes. So a lot of women are being woken up by hot flashes they didn't realize they were having.”

                                                                  ”We desperately need more practitioners who can answer those questions for women, whether it's a more natural, holistic approach that does or doesn't include hormone therapy, antidepressants, or any of the other things. Because the other problem is that these doctors are often doling out pharmaceuticals for sleep.”

                                                                  ”We now know that the impact of declining estrogen and progesterone on the brain [and] on the nervous system absolutely has an impact on anxiety, depression, and sleep.”

                                                                  In this episode, pioneering functional medicine expert Dr. Jeffrey Bland joins me to explore how immune system rejuvenation can be a game-changer for long-term health.

                                                                  We dive into the idea that food truly is medicine, and how targeted nutrition (while minimizing ultra-processed foods) can help the immune system recover AND strengthen. 

                                                                  Dr. Bland shares exciting insights on immuno-rejuvenation and spotlights an ancient yet “new” superfood—Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat—that’s paving the way for the future of nutrition and longevity.

                                                                  Ready for real healing to occur?

And when childhood trauma still comes back to haunt us in midlife and beyond, life can feel impossible. 

                                                                                    That’s why I’ve invited trauma expert Anna Runkle on for this powerful episode to help unpack why so many midlife women are still impacted by old trauma, and how that buried stress shows up in our bodies. 

                                                                                    We dive into the hidden ways trauma can lead us to isolate, dysregulate our nervous system, and disrupt key hormones like cortisol, dopamine, and serotonin. 

                                                                                    Anna and I break down how this cascade of stress and deregulation can spark inflammation, oxidative stress, blood-sugar swings, and even contribute to autoimmune issues that so many women face. 

                                                                                    But most importantly, Anna shares simple, compassionate tools to help regulate your nervous system and finally begin healing the deeper patterns driving overwhelm in midlife. 

                                                                                    Ready to feel more grounded in this season of life? Hit play and listen now!

Everybody gets dysregulated sometimes, but those of us who are traumatized as kids are often more prone to it. It happens more easily. It's more intense. It's harder to get out of.”

So the good news is you can learn to reregulate.”

                                                                                      In this episode, hormone expert Dr. Carrie Jones joins me to unpack the very real brain changes and hormone fluctuations that make midlife feel like a rollercoaster.

                                                                                      Dr. Carrie brings refreshing honesty about giving herself grace on the days when her brain simply says “no” and how that compassion is essential for all of us navigating this season of life. 

                                                                                      We dive into the midlife “reckoning,” when so many women realize it’s time to reevaluate who they are, what they want, and say goodbye to what no longer serves them. 

                                                                                      Together, we explore why midlife can leave you feeling out of whack, how hormones drive these shifts, and what you can do to support your brain with more clarity and ease. 

                                                                                      Tune in to feel validated and empowered as you move through this transformative stage of life!

                                                                                                      So that ends here!

                                                                                                                        Here’s your invitation to slow down, tune in, and truly support yourself through the midlife transition. 

                                                                                                                        Because all the changes in menopause, emotionally and physically, can seriously rock your identity. 

                                                                                                                        That’s why I’ve invited mindfulness expert Rosie Acosta on the podcast to explore the intersection of mindfulness and menopause, and how being in a community with other women can make this season of life feel less isolating and so much more empowering. 

                                                                                                                        Rosie shares how anxiety can become a messenger to your body rather than an enemy, and offers simple breathing techniques so you can feel grounded anytime, anywhere. 

                                                                                                                        Together, we redefine what womanhood and wellness look like in midlife and beyond—more connected and more intentional than ever.

                                                                                                                        Listen now to feel seen and inspired on your midlife journey!
