Navigating mid-life and aren’t sure where to turn? Unfortunately, the lack of education around this time of a woman’s life has left many feeling confused, frustrated, and unsupported. Luckily today we are joined by female hormone expert Bria Gadd for an episode all around supporting our hormonal health during perimenopause and menopause. 

Join us as we dive into a conversation around educating ourselves on midlife issues, what happens in the body during perimenopause, the four phases of women's cycles and their effects on sex, and how we can support each other through this process. Although this episode is full of wisdom for women, men can learn a lot about this season of life for the women in their lives as well.

Let this episode be a reminder that it is important to prioritize our health and that we can feel good despite these hormonal changes!
