I’m excited to share my latest guest podcast episode, where I sit down with Jeanne Collins for a truly meaningful conversation about what it takes to rebuild your health from the inside out.
In this episode, I open up about my own midlife turning point – corporate burnout, rapid weight gain, panic attacks, and the abrupt shift of perimenopause. These weren’t just physical symptoms; they were signs that my life, my habits, and my nervous system were completely overwhelmed. What followed was a full transformation rooted not in quick fixes, but in learning how to nourish my body, regulate my stress, and create sustainable practices that helped me feel grounded again.
Jeanne and I dive into the real challenges women face in midlife:
• Emotional eating and the deeper needs behind it
• The mindset shifts that make long-term change possible
• Hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause
• Why weight loss requires a different strategy in your 40s, 50s, and beyond
• How nervous system regulation impacts cravings, energy, and consistency
If you’re navigating burnout, feeling out of balance, or struggling with midlife changes, I hope this episode gives you clarity, direction, and proof that transformation is absolutely possible.
