Sadhvi Siddhali Shree

It’s hard to describe all the feels because we’re still riding the wave ahead of our official release on Jan 30th on AppleTV and Amazon Prime. What you all see are the fun photos but behind the scenes there is so much happening for our little team, navigating a giant. We’ve learned not to expect outcomes as part of our path nor desire it, so everything has all been amazing from the outpouring of love and support, the viral trailer (in our world it’s viral, ha!), to all the stories and comments, to the private stories shared with us mostly of struggle, silence and dismissal that has turned empowerment and self advocacy. There’s more to share, so much to do, so much ahead with the tsunami wave called Balance. The photos I selected in this post represent key moments from the premiere for me - being with our dear friends and exec producers @thejeanniemai and @milano_alyssa , celebrating a special moment with our spiritual teacher @acharyashreeyogeesh , to our hand signs of I don’t know what with @rosieacosta , seeing my friends from high school and the Iraq war, my teacher from high school who together we stumbled into tv video production by ourselves and “figured it out” which personally saved my soul and sanity (wait for the memoir), to all the smiles with our experts, spending time with @menopause_doctor who’s friendship has been key throughout the entire process (she even came to the ashram in Texas and met our cows), truly no words.. to see our producers, exec producers, team @zacktzfilms and @cesarramoss_ - I’m so grateful and proud of them - writing this is starting to bring tears to my eyes, which im not ready for yet.. because we have to do a TV interview in studio. Thank you to each and everyone one of you for your message, comments, stories and if you’ve never communicated but somehow you’ve been in touched, thank you. No thanks are enough. It’s not about us; it’s about the message. It’s about the mission. It’s about impact. Honesty, truth, purity and no-ego. Let’s goooo, we got this! Thank you and much love — @siddhalishree 📸 @bellamarieadams

Our official @balancedocuseries trailer debuted on @people . Excited to share this long awaited series and perimenopause journey with all of you. For too long, women have been left to navigate perimenopause and menopause in silence — confused, dismissed, and questioning their own bodies without clear answers. BALANCE: A Perimenopause Journey is a four-part documentary series that brings real stories, lived experience, and medical perspectives into the open — not to tell women what to think, but to finally give language to what so many have been feeling alone.

@cnn played an interview of me today (recorded last year) talking about my journey from war, to being a monk and making films. Truly blessed and humbled to have been given so many opportunities to raise awareness about trafficking and the need to support for victims and survivors. Last year, I was shocked it played in China and I was connected with the UN Resident Coordinator to China @sidchat1 - an amazing soul doing so much work (and a fellow veteran). We’ve talked several times and he’s very inspiring and cause-driven. What I’ve learned through this short filmmaking journey thus far is that it’s important to document things that mean a lot to us thru any creative medium… you’ll never know who it will stumble upon and help. We read so many quotes on social media and they get passed around as memes, positive thoughts, reflections, etc. The reason we have that access is because someone recorded it and shared it. We’re all in this together. Share your story. Share your struggles. Share your words of wisdom. It may touch someone’s soul one day and maybe save their life. You. never. Know. I’m always in a state of gratitude and so appreciate everyone’s support in our journeys, projects, and visions to help the world become a better place. Thank you @leifcoorlim for the opportunity to share my story. Thank you @eileenshahbazian for catching the CNN feature today and letting us know - we had know idea it would play today. It is human trafficking awareness month, so if you haven’t yet, please watch our film @survivingsextraffickingfilm on @starz @amazonprime @itunes . #cnn #siddhayatan #jain #sadhvi #monk #filmmaker #monklife #jaisiddhatma #sadhvisiddhalishree #acharyashreeyogeesh #jainism #jainsadhvi

This is the university world premiere of Balance: A Perimenopause Journey. And Texas Woman's University didn't just host it once. They hosted it at all three of their campuses because they understood what so many of us already know: this conversation is long overdue. I am a featured panelist at every stop of this tour. Denton. Dallas. Houston. All three. Because the film is only the beginning of what needs to happen in that room. Every single time the lights come up, almost every hand goes up. Women who finally have the words for something they've been living through alone. Women who have been told they're fine, they're just stressed, they're just getting older. Women who, without answers, quietly blow up their lives and don't even fully understand why. Answering those questions, being in that room, watching something shift for women who have felt invisible for years. This is why I do what I do. And I have to acknowledge the two extraordinary women behind this film. These amazing women behind the film are monks. Literally. They have dedicated their lives to giving voice to those who cannot speak for themselves, moving from documentaries on human trafficking to animal cruelty, and now to this. Because they recognized something important: what women experience in perimenopause is its own kind of violence. Silent. Invisible. And long overdue for the spotlight. One stop left. Houston, we are coming for you on May 14th at TWU Houston. If you are in the Houston area, come. Bring someone you love. Details at TWU. Balance is streaming now on Apple TV and Prime Video. #BalanceDocuseries #Perimenopause #WomensHealth #Selfority #TWU

Perimenopause doesn’t read textbooks. For one woman, it’s anxiety. For another, sleepless nights. For someone else, brain fog, rage, weight changes, or feeling unlike herself. Every story is valid. Every experience deserves to be heard. — Conversations between Sadhavi Siddhali & Dr Priyanka Mehta #perimenopause #womenshealth #doctorsofinstagram #medicalinfluencers #balancedocuseries

I had such an amazing time returning to my alma mater, @txwomans for an eye-opening conversation about perimenopause and menopause. One thing I love most is helping normalize these conversations because so many women are experiencing symptoms and changes without enough education or support. This documentary series was informative, empowering, and such an important watch for women at every stage of life. Make sure you check out @balancedocuseries and show some love to the incredible producers and team behind this important conversation including @siddhalishree and @sadhvianubhuti . You can stream it now on Apple TV and amazonprime . 💜 #Menopause #Perimenopause #MenopauseAwareness #WomensHealth #HotFlashes

Fear around health decisions can feel overwhelming — especially when it comes to hormones. With so much conflicting information, many women are left unsure, anxious, and hesitant to explore their options. What often gets missed is this: fear is not always about the treatment — it’s about the **lack of clarity and safe conversations.** Not every approach has the same level of evidence. While lifestyle changes, supplements, and herbs may support wellbeing, they may not always address deeper risks like bone loss — where we do have strong evidence for hormonal therapies. The goal is not to push one path. It’s to create a space where **you feel informed, heard, and supported** to make the right decision for your body. You don’t have to navigate this alone. With the right conversation, fear can turn into clarity. 💛 🧿 This content is for educational and awareness purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to the filmmakers behind @balancedocuseries @siddhalishree and @sadhvianubhuti . Your vision, courage, and commitment to telling this story are truly extraordinary. It’s because of your work that @peripowerevent came to life. Thank you for traveling all the way here and for sharing your wisdom, presence, and purpose with all of us. You’ve sparked something so meaningful, and I am endlessly grateful. To our incredible panelists, @kimeinhornmd , @perrindowningmd , @trainer_diane_ , and @sashasilverman1978 , thank you for showing up so generously, sharing your knowledge, and answering questions with such honesty and care. This event would not have been possible without each of you. The conversation was powerful, and I only wish we had more time, because there were so many voices and questions still waiting to be heard. My hope is that what was shared in that room continues to support and empower every woman who was there, not just in that moment, but in her everyday life. 💫
