Menopause is often lovingly referred to as the "change of life," but for those of us riding the hormonal dragon, it feels anything but gentle. It’s the powerful transition in womanhood marking a new chapter in our lives, much like when we went through puberty as young girls. It’s full of its own set of fiery challenges-the hormonal dragon that often breathes hot flashes, mood swings, and sleepless nights into our lives. It’s full of confusion, frustration, emotional highs and lows, and feelings of exhaustion. This mythical beast represents the tumultuous effects hormonal imbalances can wreak on our bodies, emotions, and overall well-being. It’s as if we suddenly wake up one morning, look in the mirror, and don’t even recognize the person staring back at us.
 | Hormones can often feel like the unsung puppet masters of our well-being, capable of turning our day from tranquil to tumultuous without a moment's notice. Hormones are the delicate balancing act that controls almost all of our bodily functions. When they are functioning healthily, they are a beautiful symphony. But when they are out of balance, they often feel like a group of 3rd graders who are picking up the recorder in music class for the first time. You know that sound! The nails on the chalkboard, screeching, squeaking annoyance of every parent's worst nightmares! Yet, what if I told you that there's a path through the smoke—a way to tame this dragon inside and even ride with it in harmony? Fear not, for there are natural, holistic methods to tame this dragon, bringing peace and equilibrium back to our lives. |
The journey through perimenopause and menopause necessitates a balanced approach that embraces the mind, body, and the healing powers of the natural world. Embracing nature as a source of support and equilibrium can guide us through the stormy seas of hormonal changes, showcasing the strength and resilience inherent in navigating this transformative phase of life. Utilizing natural methods to address these challenges positions us to find a sense of harmony amidst the upheaval, empowering us to forge a path forward with grace and confidence.
This is what I do! As a doctor, I help you find natural solutions to bring balance back to your body and learn to embrace the changes that you are seeing visibly. I help you understand the signs your body is throwing at you and interpret them to get to the root of the situation. Let's chat!

Starting something new is never easy. It can be scary, overwhelming and sometimes it’s just plain HARD! No matter how much we prepare our minds for change, sometimes taking that first step before a giant leap is the hardest part of the whole thing.
Change is scary and even when it’s for our good, it’s still scary. And today my brain is in that spot. I’ve hidden behind weight for so long, knowing that I needed to make changes but not being fully ready. What I’ve learned is that I have a bit of a perfectionist side about me. I’m afraid of failure. Everyone is watching! I’ve learned that I don’t set realistic goals because I don’t want to miss out on them and feel like I’m not worthy of ever achieving them. So instead, I have settled for status quo. I have settled for mediocrity in many areas of my life.
Anyone who has tried to lose weight (and failed) knows that the mental roadblocks can play huge roles, as big as diet and exercise! We create so many questions in our heads as to what it will look like when we are healthier. We have a fear of the unknown, especially if we’ve lived in a place of obesity for awhile. “Will my skin get saggy”? “Will I have enough money to buy new clothes when mine no longer fit?” For those who’ve lived with 30, 40, 50, 100 pounds extra, we also may wonder what it’s like to be skinny and that unknown creates anxiety for us.
For some of us in this group, we hide behind the weight because of trauma. Some will feel that if they stay behind the weight, they won’t get unnecessary attention that could lead to more hurt. They use the weight as a shield.
And for some of us in this group, being overweight is just what’s comfortable. We are used to this and it’s what we know. We know what to expect from day to day. We’ve altered our lives around what we know we can and can’t do. We look for elevators because stairs will make us winded and sweaty by the time we get to our appointment. We park close to the doors at the store so we don’t have to walk too far. We create excuses of why we can’t go place and become “comfortable” in our house, not wanting to leave. We create nightly rituals around a bowl of ice cream or snacks while watching late night TV. And these things become our “normal”.
I remember when I was pregnant with my second daughter and my OBGYN said “Well you’ve hit a milestone?” I was so excited and asked him what it was. He responded very nonchalantly with “You’ve hit 200 pounds”. He also informed me at that time that I had gestational diabetes. I remember being devastated, but at the same time, I believe those words are one of the big things that ultimately led me to overeat. He put me on Diet Coke instead of Coke (OMG! What are these doctors thinking???) and I started drinking a 2 liter a day because I just didn’t feel like I’d had enough. (When I drank Coke, one can did it, but with Diet Coke, I needed more to get the same feeling). After my baby was born, I lost some weight but managed to keep on a good 25 pounds or so. Then came baby 3, 4, and 5. With each one I was closer to 200 pounds at the start so I hit this number more quickly. It almost became a challenge to see how quickly I could hit it. And with each pregnancy I gained 40-50 pounds and I kept 15-20 pounds extra at the end. I remember very vividly telling my husband that I was done trying to lose weight and that everytime I started, I would get pregnant. Boom Chica Wow Wow! Those words eventually altered my brain to not want to lose weight. Why? Because I didn’t want to get pregnant! DUH!
Ultimately, thoughts like this led me to where I am today. About 60 pounds over weight, facing the seemingly daunting task of having to face my fears, face my worries and start this journey of getting healthier.
The workbook questions that we have for this 14 day reset are fantastic and make us dig deeper and look at why we have the connections to food that we have. Today’s question is to reflect on times you overate. What triggered it and how can we create better coping skills. I challenge you to really do these daily questions and to plug in ACTIVELY to the challenge group. We have to be willing to face this demon of food and addiction and doing it in a group is going to be the most empowering part of this whole journey!!!
So, today I’m being bold, as much as I don’t want to. I’m facing my fears, putting myself out there and saying that today, January 15th 2024, I’m starting on this journey at a whopping 221.3 pounds. OUCH! I can’t believe I just admitted that out loud! I’m going to work on journaling some of this as well as what I’ve learned in the days and weeks leading up to this challenge, and I invite you to do the same.
We’ve got this!
