Are you feeling the emotional and physical effects of hormonal changes, like brain fog, irritability, or weight gain, but aren't sure how to handle them? It can be tough to find reliable guidance and solutions that work, especially as many of us are facing perimenopause and menopause. But don’t worry! Help is on the way!

In this episode, I am joined by Brett Eaton, an integrative nurse practitioner from Whole Health Chicago, to shine a light on these hormonal changes and empower you with practical advice. Brett brings her wealth of expertise to help us better understand symptoms like fatigue, libido changes, and unexpected weight gain.

We dive into strategies for tackling these challenges head-on, from holistic practices, and lifestyle adjustments, to the potential benefits of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), which could possibly protect our brains from developing dementia later on! We also address common concerns and misconceptions about treatments like HRT and the importance of personalized care.

Tune in and get empowering insights to help you feel more at ease with where you are and confident about navigating your eventual menopausal transition.

Being a mom is an incredibly rewarding job, but it becomes especially challenging when you're raising a child with special needs.

The feelings of isolation and overwhelm can be all-consuming, leaving you unsure of where to turn for support and guidance.

From navigating school systems that don't fully understand your child's unique requirements to managing the personal guilt and stress that come with the constant need for advocacy, it's a relentless test of strength and resilience.

In this heartfelt episode, I'm joined by Fiona Walsh, a remarkable mom of three and a mindset and leadership coach, who opens up about her own rollercoaster journey. Fiona shares her powerful story of understanding and supporting her neurodiverse child, offering insights into the emotional and practical aspects of parenting under complex circumstances.

We dive into real strategies for maintaining personal well-being, leveraging community support, and how embracing vulnerability can lead to a deeper connection with your children and yourself.

Join us as we shine a light on the paths through the challenges, bringing hope and empowerment to all moms in similar situations.

With love and light, Jana
