Hi, I'm Natalie Jill and I help women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond redefine, rebrand, and laugh

with aging. Welcome to midlife conversations. On this podcast, I do what I do best, taking complicated

information that is relevant in this point of our lives now and break it down simply with

actionable steps you can implement

to level up your life. I also regularly interview some of the most inspiring people living

their best midlife years now. On this show, I cover topics about our shifting hormones,

weight struggles, our mood and focus changes, raising teenagers, our relationships, career changes, beauty, and more.

If you are new here, I encourage you go back and listen from episode one when this podcast was

previously called Listen Up for the full transformative experience.

So excited to chat with Pelle and Patricia.

I've been drinking her bone broth, following her stuff, reading her books for years. And I've gotten to know her recently on a more personal level.

Oh, I love that. I love that. Okay, so take us back because you were originally a chiropractor.

How does one go from a chiropractor to a naturopathic doctor to this bestselling author and advocate on these things?

Tell us what happened here.

Well, I found out that when I was in practice, and I have to say the education that I received was phenomenal because I had human anatomy for two years. So I actually understand really well where the organs are and how they're innovated

and how they work. I had geriatrics, pediatrics, spinal anatomy for two years, an intricate

look at the immune system and how it looked.

So the education was very valuable.

But what I found out was what really lit me up was the biochemistry behind all of it.

It wasn't structure and function.

It was what was going on inside the body.

And when I got out into practice, I didn't have all my board exams done. I had three of the four. And I was certified, though, to do nutrition. So I thought, okay, well, let me start out working in these offices. I'm going to do nutrition. And I found that I was really, really good at it. I found out that, you know, it's just, it's like it's the best feeling in

the world when you find, you feel like you're a fly paper to something that, you know,
