Menopause does not begin the day your period disappears.
Years before, your body may already be trying to warn you.
Changes in sleep, energy, skin, hair, digestion, or mood can appear during a hormonal transition that many women go through without really understanding what is happening.
In this conversation, she explains why, from her approach, menopause should not be automatically assumed to be a stage of suffering, and what role nutrition, strength, rest, stress, and gut health can play in how we navigate these years.
She also addresses endocrine disruptors present in our environment, the microbiota, glucose spikes, and some daily habits that could be silently interfering with our hormonal balance.
Because perhaps this stage does not arrive for you to fight against your body.
But for you to finally learn to listen to it.
