Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health around peri-menopause and menopause.  

Dr. Lovely has a chat today with Family Physician, Dr. Shana Johnston.  After working nearly 30 years in a volume based system of medicine, Shana burned out and left practice.  This also happened to correspond to her late peri-menopause.  She calls this time, the tunnel of menopause, a portal.  A graduation of sorts where we are called to come home to ourselves.  A gorgeous chat between dear friends, they discuss how spiritual practices become so much more important during the times of challenge, like perimenopause.  

Dr. Shana has a fascinating story and a deep knowledge of humanity from working many aspects of medicine in her professional career.  Delivering babies and assisting with end of life care, she sees herself as the helper in "life's airport:  arrivals and departures."  She has much to share with us about how menopause acted as a major life change agent for her and how it can do the same for you - for the better!  Menopause is ultimately a deeply spiritual transition to our higher, more authentic self, if we allow it.

She is presently gathering women together for her Menopause: Let's Talk About It workshop.  She is generously offering our community a 25% discount for her online courses and workshops with the code: LOVELY.
