In this eye-opening episode, join me, as I sit down with the incredible Amita Sharma, co-founder of Nourishdoc, to shed light on the often-taboo topics of menopause and perimenopause. We dive deep into the physical and psychological toll these life phases can take on women, including the rarely discussed subjects of miscarriages and the journey through perimenopause. Amita shares her personal and professional evolution, from a career in architecture to her passion for holistic wellness, inspired by her own experiences with perimenopause. Discover the importance of balancing hormones naturally and the impact of lifestyle choices on both body and mind. We explore the power of holistic practices such as aromatherapy and yoga, and how comprehensive self-care and a supportive community can guide women through the challenges of menopausal changes.
