Wow. Am still trying to find the words to accurately capture what I experienced yesterday at Aging Powerfully with Melissa Grelo: LIVE in Calgary!
So for now I’ll just say this: make sure you get a ticket to Melissa’s next event.
@melissagrelo maybe adidas can sponsor the next one?! 😉💜
Can I just keep taking the birth control pill, or do I need to switch to MHT? 🤔 But there's some considerations! @drjenzelo breaks it down for us.

Recently I learned from our friends at Endy that I like a low loft pillow.
I need the support for my neck and shoulders. And Endy’s customizable pillow has been a dream come true. I was able to test out more foam one night and a little less the next until I found quite literally my perfect pillow.

Sleep is underrated.
That's what we're learning most from @endy 's Reclaim Your Rest sleep series!
In the latest episode of This Is Perimenopause podcast, Mikelle discusses the power of sleep when it comes to weight management with Gina Livy, creator of The Livy Method, and Dr. Olinca Trejo, naturopathic doctor and hormone expert.
In this conversation we cover:
💜 The connection between sleep and your hunger hormones and the domino effect that happens when you're sleep deprived
💜 Why ghrelin and leptin (your hunger and fullness hormones) get hijacked when you're not sleeping well, and what that means for your cravings
💜 How poor sleep tanks your insulin sensitivity, breaks down muscle instead of fat, and can mimic a pre-diabetic state in as little as one week
💜 What cortisol is doing to your body when you're stressed and sleep deprived, and why it makes fat loss nearly impossible
💜 What perimenopause does to your sleep, and why the struggle is so much more than just hot flashes
💜 The truth about alcohol and your sleep
Listen anywhere you find podcasts.

Our own Van and Erin joined @thisisperimenopause to break it all down: pressure points, hormonal changes, and why your mattress matters more than you’d think during this stage of life.
🎙️ Full episode out now on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
Save this if you’ve been waking up sore and just accepting it.
This Wednesday! We are so excited to welcome @ginalivy and @dr.olinca to the pod!
If you're struggling with a weight goal and feel like you're eating well and moving your body, but you're not seeing the progress you expect...
The answer might not be on your plate or at the gym.
Gina and Dr. Olinca, ND are here to break down the lesser known relationship between your sleep and weight.
Thank you to @endy the sponsor of our Reclaim Your Rest series all about sleep in perimenopause and for always helping us rise to shine. ✨️

You need to gather as much information as you can to see the patterns. And if it's not hormonal, you'll have ruled it out so you can confidently explore other causes.
This Hot TIP features Dr. Michelle Jacobson, gynecologist, menopause oncology specialist, and co-founder of the virtual clinic Coven Women's Health, an OBGYN-led virtual clinic. She is the doctor other doctors call. And we know why. 💜
For more Dr. Michelle Jacobson check out her episode of This Is Perimenopause or Hysterical Women. Both are available on Apple or Spotify.
