In this deeply personal episode, I open up about my recent journey through menopause, the discovery of high insulin, and what it all means for my body and my health. For months, I carried the weight of frustration (pun intended), doing all the “right” things yet seeing no change. Getting some answers has shifted things for me. I now have a better understanding of what’s happening, which feels empowering.

I’ll share why I see menopause as a milestone worth celebrating, how I’m reframing what my body is asking of me, and why compassion and curiosity matter more than willpower. If you’ve ever felt confused by your body or stuck in a cycle of frustration, this conversation is for you.

And by the way... I recorded this while in a bit of a funk. Because sometimes, the most meaningful conversations come from our real, unpolished moments.
