Highlights from today's episode include:

Alison Bladh 

And I think also, you know, women as we age, people don't want to talk about aging. We want to remain young forever, which is ridiculous, because that isn't how the body works is it? And I just think that women don't want to talk about it or nobody wants to talk about it because it has this negativity attached to it.

Alison Bladh 

A key thing that we really want to focus on is blood sugar management. So making sure that your blood sugar is stable. And you can do that quite well by avoiding ultra processed, highly refined sugary foods. They're not beneficial for health, they shoot your blood sugar up, and it's been shown in research if you've, if you're eating a high sugar diet, that it can stimulate menopausal symptoms.

Manon Bolliger  24:34

I think it's just also taking that time to honor oneself, even to look at what are we saying yes to and what are we not saying no to can really have a big impact on stress just to become very conscious about each step that we're taking.
