Episode Summary

Have you recently left your doctor’s office feeling more confused than when you walked in? 

Or finally worked up the courage to share the brain fog, crushing fatigue, or unexplainable mood swings—only to get brushed off with: “It’s just part of getting older”? 

I see you—because I was you—and I know how frustrating and lonely it can feel to navigate midlife changes when so few doctors truly understand what’s happening in your body. 

In this empowering episode, we dive into how to be heard at the doctor’s office during perimenopause and menopause, what to track before your appointment, the right questions to ask, and the signs it might be time to find a new provider. 

You deserve answers. You deserve care that sees the whole you. And you deserve to walk out of your appointments with clarity and a plan to feel your best. 

Tune in to this episode to reclaim your voice and your power in this beautiful season of life!

QUOTES

“Even today, the average woman waits 7 to 10 years for a proper diagnosis of conditions like Hashimoto’s and other autoimmune issues.”

“If you feel dismissed, it’s okay to find another provider. I know this can feel daunting, but your health and your quality of life is on the line. You deserve a provider who listens.”

“There are so many doctors and providers out there like me who care deeply, who understand what it’s like to be going through this transition, what it’s like to be a woman navigating the world, particularly the healthcare system, and what it’s like to struggle with symptoms, and you just desperately want answers to feel better again.”

“Once you understand what’s happening in your body during this profound transition… You can transform perimenopause from something that happens to you to something you navigate with power, knowledge, and most importantly, the right support.”

“8 out of 10 of the most common perimenopausal symptoms are brain-related. We’re talking sleep issues, brain fog, rage, mood swings, irritability, night sweats, zero stress tolerance, mental fatigue, anxiety, hot flashes…”

“It’s everything you need to get the results that you deserve. Perimenopause isn’t the beginning of your decline. It’s your wake-up call to step into the most vibrant, confident, unapologetic version of yourself for the next 40+ years.”
