Trying to figure out perimenopause & menopause? I've got you!

I'm a naturopathic physician of 15 years and specialized in menopause care. Naturopathic menopause care is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it's a holistic one - evaluating nutrition, lifestyle, digestion, thyroid, adrenals and genetics as thoroughly as your hormone changes.

I offer bioidenticle hormone therapy, non hormonal therapies, and functional lab analysis along with nutrition and lifestyle optimization.

Menopause can be challenging on many levels, it doesn't need to be completely disruptive.

Being a lifelong athlete, I'm intimately aware of how hormone changes influence training and performance, and the gap (or non existence) of research, support and guidance for female athletes. If you are an active woman, menopause support needs further individualization.

There are multiple ways we can work together, more information is available in my bio. DM me with questions.

You've got this!!👊

There’s a lot that changes in perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause. Despite it being a normal transition, it can be turbulent and isolating.

Savonn and I have put together a program to give you tools, strategies and community to help you navigate all of it.

Why not learn how to age strong and move through menopause with confidence and intent surrounded by women who get it. Who are in it with you.

Comment “pause” for more info. We have a few in-person spots left, virtual options are available too.

Leaning into the discomfort and effort is how you grow, heal, and make gains. You also need to allow yourself the opportunity to lean out and take a breather from time to time.

Healing, be it heart or body, is hard. Growing, improving, getting stronger, getting healthier, getting back on your feet, there are no shortcuts, no hacks or easy way out.

Even though the discomfort or pain may not let up, you can give yourself moments to not engage, to lean out, to just say f*ck it I can’t do this today. When you allow yourself space to feel your feels and absorb all the work you’ve done, you come back stronger and ready for more.

Be it physical, emotional, or psychological injuries or major health changes or events, it all takes energy. It can all be hard. Recovering from a pretty big climbing accident and navigating perimenopause - some days I feel like I’ve been wrestling a gorilla. A perimenopausal gorilla. I’ve learned that I’ll make it back, I sometimes just need a moment to breathe.

You don’t need diets to feel good or get your body back in menopause. You don’t need to eat low carb either.

Anything too restrictive or extreme inevitably brings unwanted side effects. If you restrict carbs too much your body might put on weight, lower thyroid function and raise cortisol.

Your body is changing in perimenopause and menopause, dieting isn’t the solution. Your body needs fuel. Get specific with your body instead of following random trends.

Changes in body composition are very common in perimenopause and menopause, it’s often the first symptom women really notice.

The hormone shifts that start in perimenopause change your metabolism in a way that raises inflammation and encourages belly fat.

The good news, you can fight back by adjusting your nutrition and movement routines. It’s not about dieting.

Get your testosterone checked too, it could be contributing. Comment “labs” to get my Menopause Screening Labs Checklist to make sure you’re ready for this phase of life!

Perimenopause is when things start to change - your periods might get longer, or shorter, more painful, irregular. PMS might take you out with wicked breast tenderness or even depression.

Changes in weight, body composition, motivation and even your ability to recover from your workouts can change.

Bloating, constipation or diarrhea can all happen too. Along with sleep disruptions.

As your hormones begin to shift, everything else does too. It doesn't have to be debilitating or confusing. You can still thrive and crush your goals with the right adjustments. Know what your body needs and get specific, all the hormone changes that come with perimenopause and menopause can be countered with nutrition, lifestyle and exercise modifications!

Drop me a 🙌🏼 if you're not ready to slow down in this phase of life!
