Hair on the pillow, clogging the drain, thinner at the part when shedding starts after 40, it’s frustrating and confusing. We cut through the noise with a clear, objective roadmap to figure out why it’s happening and what actually helps. From hormone shifts in perimenopause and menopause to underappreciated thyroid patterns, I walk step by step through the signs and choices that move the needle without wasting money on false promises, all from an unbiased perspective where I am not trying to sell you anything...very rare these days from the health & wellness space.  So you know I am legit.

Who am I? I don’t define myself by my past, but it’s a big part of my story. In 2010, my five-year-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer, and just a year later, I was too, but with thyroid cancer at 41. Fast forward to now, at 55, I’m navigating menopause and constantly learning what it truly means to thrive - body, mind, spirit and soul - to this next chapter of my life.

Along the way, I went back to college, became a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, earned numerous certifications, and started this podcast just before the pandemic. I come to you not only as a practitioner and a podcaster, but as a woman who’s lived it, someone driven by passion over profit, and a genuine desire to help others heal, grow, and live with more vitality, purpose, and joy.

I break down DHT’s role in scalp thinning and the telltale clues like new facial hair, acne flares, mood changes - then share practical interventions you can discuss with your practitioner. You’ll learn how to vet red light therapy for real results (the right wavelengths, power, and session cadence), when a follicle can be rescued versus when a transplant is the only option, and why consistency matters more than hype. We also tackle the big “hidden” drivers: chronic stress, medication-induced nutrient depletions, and blood sugar dysregulation that inflames the scalp and nudges androgen pathways in the wrong direction.

The goal isn’t a one-size-fits-all supplement; it’s a personalized plan built on bioindividuality.
