Hey friend,

Have you ever felt like you’re invisible when it comes to your health?..

According to a 2020 survey by AARP, 45% of women aged 45 to 60 reported not being taken seriously by their primary care doctor when discussing their perimenopausal or menopausal symptoms. That’s almost half of us!

In today’s episode, I’m going to break down the three biggest lies about hormone imbalance during perimenopause and menopause.

In this episode you will learn:

• Why symptoms like hot flashes and mood swings don't just “go away” on their own.
• The go-to birth control method that can masks symptoms without fixing the root cause of hormonal imbalance.
• Why HRT may not be the magic bullet it’s often made out to be, and what alternatives can be just as effective.

If you're tired of being blown off by doctors or fed one-size-fits-all medical solutions, this episode is for you. It’s time to get out of the hormonal waiting room and take control of your health—naturally.

we’ll uncover the truth about what’s really going on with your hormones and how you can begin to feel better in 2025—starting today.
