Keeping peri & postmenopausal women active and thriving to stay in pursuit of their wildest goals.

10/18/2025

✨ Happy World Menopause Day ✨

As a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP) and lifelong athlete, I’m passionate about helping active women navigate the menopause transition with strength, vitality, and confidence.

Menopause isn’t the end of your athletic story — it’s a powerful new chapter.
Through my Wild Pursuits Method, I help perimenopausal and postmenopausal women stay strong, prevent chronic disease, and feel at home in their bodies again.

Movement, nourishment, and evidence-based support can transform this phase from frustrating to empowering.

Let’s celebrate the women who keep showing up — on the trails, in the gym, and in life — and prove that thriving through menopause is absolutely possible. 💪🏽🔥

Strength training is one of the more valuable and supportive things you can do in midlife. As your hormones change in perimenopause and menopause, especially dropping estrogen, you lose strength and lean muscle.

Building muscle protects your bones, increases your metabolism, prevents diabetes and keeps you from becoming frail.

There are no shortcuts, bio hacks or magical diets. It’s about getting strategic, using your “no” button, and saying yes to the life you want.

You’ve got this! 👊🏼

What a wild and full adventure in the Pyrenees! It’s hard to succinctly describe all that attracted me to , one big pull was curiosity – could I (and my body) get to the start line and pull this off.

It’s a team event where and I definitely leveled up our teamwork and had a blast! The new friends and entire PSR community are just 🤯.

Like most things in life, just getting to the start line is a team event – is such a phenomenal coach! With her guidance and expertise, I built a level of durability and running performance I’ve never known. Michelle has been my PT for almost 6 years. Her ability to breakdown complex, nuanced issues and FIX them is nothing short of magic. She gave me my life back after my climbing accident and continues to give me the tools to keep living the life I want!

Kate Kelly, LMT helped me through pesky injuries and readily cared for Rocket too many times to count. Knowing your dog is being spoiled and loved on frees up a lot of energy to pound out the miles 🐾❤️.

Dr. Katz at Parkside Clinic + Kate Saul helped turn my grimaces into smiles and kept me moving with their pain management skills.

My biggest teammate in all of this was of course – never doubting, always supporting, putting his own goals on the backburner and relentlessly cheering me on through the process.

Thank you, TEAM!!

Dream big, try hard. You never know what you’re capable of otherwise.

I’ve been off social media for awhile working on other projects. Some professional, some personal. This one checks both boxes.

I have a lot of steep miles in front of me yet (literally) before the other projects come to fruition, so here’s celebrating a win along the way.

And letting you know I’m still working hard to keep you active, thriving and living your best life❤️.

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!!👊

What menopause cocktail are you? Perimenopause or postmenopausal - take my new quiz and find out.

There are many (many) symptoms of peri & postmenopause making each person's experience somewhat unique. There are also trends in this transition, hence the cocktail quiz.

It's for fun as surviving perimenopause and postmenopause requires a bit of humor.

Comment "Quiz" for the link or check my bio. Let me know what you think.

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.
