Hey friend,

Today, I’m super excited to share this bonus episode about weight gain, belly fat, and what to expect in menopause.

It’s from a recent discussion I had with Robin Rhine McDonald, host of the Vision Driven Health podcast, for a 6-week series on healthy hormones. 

This juicy episode is jam-packed with answers to the questions I get asked most about menopause and hormonal changes…including the million-dollar question:

Is weight gain in menopause inevitable?...

In today’s episode, you will learn:

  • How hormones change throughout the menopause transition

  • Why inevitable hormone changes, starting in perimenopause, are still such a mystery. (Spoiler alert: Medical gaslighting is real!) 

  • What’s different about losing weight after 40 versus in your 20’s or 30’s

  • And the top mistakes women make to try to lose weight in menopause

Plus, I’ll share some of the biggest dial movers to lose stubborn weight–and keep it off–in midlife. 

So, grab a pen, a notebook, and your favorite cup ‘cuz we’re about to stir the tea on all things menopause.

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!
