Cuz were already friends in my head:) Welcome to Are You There, Midlife? Its Me, Monica. Im Monica Lane Topete, Certified Nutrition Coach Coach, Peri Menopause Educator, Personal Trainer, NASM Behavior Change Specialist, and Hormone Imbalance Survivor. And Im on a mission to help women in mid life balance their hormones naturally without drugs, doctors (or divorce!) It wasnt too long ago when perimenopause came crashing through my door with a ton of luggage (cuz she was prepared to stay for A WHILE!) I remember how overwhelmed, anxious, and pretty much clueless I was about what was happening to my bodyand how desperate I was for a diagnosis! But, after SEVERAL visits to my doctor who gave me a clean bill of health and lab results that came back within normal range, I finally decided to take my health into my own hands. I spent OVER A YEAR combing through PubMed research studies, taking online courses in naturopathy and functional medicine, and becoming my own human guinea pig to crack the hormone code and create a research-based program that really worked to balance my hormones, put the kibosh on perimenopause symptoms, and lose stubborn weightand keep it offfor more than 10 years! And now, I want to share it with you. Join me as I demystify the hormonal transition in midlife and spill the tea on what to expect when youre expecting perimenopauseand beyond. From anxiety to insomnia, body fat to funky body odor (yeah, thats a thing!), Ill unpack all the weird stuff going on inside our midlife bodies, plus give you the latest science and holistic solutions to balance it all. ...Are you tired of dealing with heavy, p Language: en Genres: Alternative Health, Health & Fitness, Nutrition Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it Trailer: |

Do You Have A Hormone Imbalance? Take my FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz Ever wondered if what you’re feeling isn’t “normal”… it’s hormonal? According to emerging midlife health research, hormone shifts in our late 30s and 40s can start years before full-blown perimenopause—affecting everything from our sleep and mood to body odor, belly fat, and energy. Yet most women never get a real explanation for what’s happening in our bodies…until we’re already in the thick of it. In today’s episode, I’m sharing a really candid conversation I had recently with one of my podcast besties, Joy Johnson of The Journey To Becoming Podcast—where we get into all the crazy midlife symptoms no one prepares us for (and what’s actually driving them beneath the surface.) In this episode, we discuss your most commonly asked questions, including: ✅ What can women do in their 30s and early 40s to set their hormones up for success before perimenopause hits? ✅ What are the worst foods for hormone imbalance (and why do they hit harder in midlife)? ✅ How does hormonal birth control impact our natural hormonal production? ✅ What is the best exercise for weight loss and hormone balance in perimenopause? ✅ What sugars have the least effect on blood sugar and metabolism? ✅ How important is protein and how much should I be eating? ✅ Is weight gain and fat gain inevitable in perimenopause? If you’ve ever wondered what you can do now to make perimenopause easier later, this conversation gives you the clarity you’ve been craving—plus practical, science-backed tips to start implementing today! — FREE RESOURCES: Do You Have A Hormone Imbalance?
