Feeling stuck in perimenopause?
Navigating perimenopause can feel overwhelming, especially when women’s health is so often treated like men’s.
But it’s time to change that!
We’re so used to these deep-seated societal beliefs about women in midlife– putting us at a disadvantage when it comes to whole body health and disease prevention, especially as we age.
So if you’re struggling to get answers in perimenopause from your doctors, I’m here to connect the dots and empower you with knowledge.
In this episode, we break down women’s healthcare, common perimenopause symptoms, and how to recognize the early signs of hormonal shifts. Plus, I’m sharing a sneak peek into my upcoming book, The Perimenopause Revolution, coming this fall!

“Many women are plagued with confusion over issues like these, and they're having a difficult time connecting the dots because they're being told otherwise. Yet, when it comes to perimenopause, in order to understand what's not normal, you must first know your own baseline.”

Can LIGHT alone really help treat debilitating diseases?
Think…
Inflammation. Chronic pain. Arthritis. Gut diseases. Thyroid issues. Skin conditions. Mental health and cognitive function. Even CANCERS…
It’s true. Light CAN be a solution to all of these conditions.
How? All humans are hardwired to respond to light– our hormone shifts and energy signals adapt to light. So treatments like red light therapy help you tap into your body’s biology and highlight what’s available in nature… only at an accelerated rate.
Red Light expert Jonathan Otto joins the podcast today to explain how red light as a non-invasive, pain-free, chemical-free treatment method can help reverse cancer and other chronic diseases.
Sounds too good to be true? You’ll get all the facts here on how red light therapy may be just what you need to overcome setbacks and feel totally rejuvenated in your health!

“Even though women live longer, we’re not living healthier. And if red light therapy and having these modalities are going to help you to live a better, more fulfilled and more alive life for longer– I mean that to me, that's the name of the game.”
“With people using red light therapy, it's like a one and done. What's happening is people will save so much money, it's almost ridiculous. In that sense, it doesn't cost you anything, because there are so many things that it can replace.”
