Hello and welcome back to the podcast. My name is Leanne Vogel. I'm a functional medicine

practitioner and holistic nutritionist. And today we're talking about thriving through menopause

with my friend and colleague, Andrea Jones, from Abundant Wellness with Andrea. If you're dealing

with hot flashes, restless nights, shifting moods, oh, let me tell you, parimenopause. Menopause, it is not easy.

And if you're wondering what's happening in your body, this conversation is for you. So Andrea and I are

unpacking practical ways to support changing hormones through nutrition, movement, restful sleep.

We talk about functional testing and even

intimacy. What we want you to take away from today's episode is that chasing symptom relief

doesn't help in the grand scheme of things. We need to take a bigger picture approach, a whole

body approach so that you can feel balanced and energized and confident in this season

of life because it's really a new season of life. We're entering into a whole new expanse

and it can be really brutal for some. So I'm really excited to share these action steps with you.

This is a re-release of the episode that I did with

Andrea a couple of years ago. And how I decide what episode is going to get a replay or not,

I don't know what's going on, but many of us in this community are going through perimenopause

right now. And I've received a significant amount of questions about perimenopause, experiencing

menopause, hot flashes, management of symptoms, all of it. And so I wanted to re-release this

episode because it is just, it's a good one. It is a good one. I hope you enjoy our time with

Andrea.
