Episode 50: Less Stress, More Strength: A Perimenopause Conversation
In this episode, we cover: On this episode of Positively Altered, Dr. Cindy welcomes wellness advocate and former real estate leader Nikko Papadakos. Nikko shares her raw and relatable journey through perimenopause—years marked by burnout, physical symptoms, and the haunting question, “What’s broken in me?” She opens up about how she reframed “brokenness” as an invitation to change, learned to manage stress, and built a healthier life through fitness, nutrition, and boundaries. With candor and humor, Nikko reminds women they’re not alone in this season—and that with awareness and small shifts, joy and resilience are possible again.

About Nikko Papadakos
Nikko built a very successful real estate career, yet her most successful year was the worst years of her life. She was navigating perimenopause and had never heard the word. Therefore, she had no idea how to support herself through that distinct biological transition; it led to burnout. She healed through that season with a fire in her belly to help other high-achieving women create joyful and sustainable success.
