And I’m on a mission to help women in midlife balance their hormones naturally without drugs, doctors (or divorce!)It wasn’t too long ago when perimenopause came crashing through my door with a ton of luggage (‘cuz she was prepared to stay for A WHILE!)I remember how overwhelmed, anxious, and pretty much clueless I was about what was happening to my body…and how desperate I was for a diagnosis!But, after SEVERAL visits to my doctor who gave me a clean bill of health and lab results that came back “within normal range,” I finally decided to take my health into my own hands. I spent OVER A YEAR combing through PubMed research studies, taking online courses in naturopathy and functional medicine, and becoming my own human guinea pig to crack the hormone code and create a research-based program that really worked to balance my hormones, put the kibosh on perimenopause symptoms, and lose stubborn weight–and keep it off–for more than 10 years!

What was I saying again?)... Are you beyond frustrated doing “all the things” to lose weight—but are still packing on the pounds faster than a sumo wrestler in training?…Then, you’re in the right place.:)There is a way you can balance your hormones naturally that doesn’t involve band-aid solutions like antidepressants or birth control pills (which are a BIG mistake! HUGE!)...and that only provide temporary relief without fixing the root problem.In this podcast, you’ll learn how to:- End painful periods and PMS- Improve your sleep and reduce hot flashes and night sweats- Alleviate hormonal headaches, fatigue, joint pain, and gut issues- Reduce mood swings and depression (without meds)- Move the scale on stubborn weight and belly fat- And talk to your partner about perimenopause (without sounding like you’re totally insane!)- It’s time to take back control of your hormones and show ‘em who’s boss! ...Without ever stepping foot inside a doctor’s office or resorting to crazy hormone pellets. No need to make an appointment or even change outta your PJs.Just come as you are–wherever you are–and listen in as I discuss ALL things hormones and midlife–with a bit of saucy humor.(‘Cuz laughing is better than crying, unless it makes you pee.:)---Next Steps:- Become an AYTML Podcast Insider: https://areyoutheremidlife.com/- Take my FREE Hormone Quiz: https://bit.ly/HormoneSelfAssessment- Book a 15-minute Hormone Clarity Call: https://bit.ly/hormonecall- Submit a Question to be Answered on the Pod: https://www.speakpipe.com/AreYouThereMidlife- Email Me: [email protected]Join Podchaser to...
