Afterpause with easy meal prepping.

Under 5 min is my goal during the work week. I eat all protein and my skin and hair love it. It’s the one area I see women struggle with. Tofu, beans and legumes, fish, chicken, steak- it all works. Do you.

This is a 3.5 chuck roast. So simple: in my Dutch over, seasonings I like, some broth. Forget about it in the oven for 4-5 hours, shred, and I like to crisp it up under the broiler. I serve it over purple potatoes (my fav), with greens in the side. Great the next day in buckwheat tortillas with pickled onions, slaw, and my homemade dairy-free ranch dressing.

Find my recipes on my website- I used to be a recipe developer. I keep it real easy.

Afterpausing with my grandson. I want to feel strong, vibrant, s*xy, and alive so I can maintain my babysitting role. I have 5 kids- the odds of me having over 15 grandkids is pretty high.

I pan seared chicken, let it rest. Sautéed onions, yellow and green zucchini, peas, and a 16 oz. can of chopped Italian tomatoes, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes. Boiler the whole box of pasta for 6 minutes. Chopped the chicken and added everything together. Easy, delicious, nutritious, and enough for lunches.

I call BS on all the clinicians out there who tell their menopausal patients to wait and see what happens with their already elevated cholesterol. It happens ALL THE TIME. Just say this isn’t your area of expertise and refer her out.

GrandmaPause doesn’t mean no s*x life.

No libido is not acceptable. You must know your numbers. You may need to ditch your doc.

Start here: “I’d like my testosterone tested: total, free, and SHBG. I want a baseline.”

When your doc says it’s not standard: “ISSWSH published clinical guidelines specifically supporting testosterone testing for postmenopausal women with low desire. I’d like to follow that protocol.”

When she pushes couples therapy on you: “I’m not ruling that out. But I want to rule out a physiological cause first, the same way we’d test my thyroid if I were tired.”

When she says the ranges aren’t validated: “I understand that. I still want the data.”

If she won’t budge: “Can you refer me to a NAMS-certified menopause specialist? This feels outside your focus area, and I need someone who specializes in this.”

If she doesn’t know of any resources, you go to or .
