Summary
In this empowering episode, I sit down with the brilliant Dr. Bayati—OBGYN, wellness educator, and co-founder of Perellel—to have an honest, hopeful conversation about perimenopause, metabolic health, fertility over 35, and why it's time to rebrand this entire life stage. We talk about how to support your hormones through nutrition, stress management, and strength training, why creatine isn’t just for men, and how supplements can actually simplify your wellness routine. Dr. B also opens up about the transition in her own practice, and how women can embrace this next chapter with strength, balance, and joy.
Whether you're in your 30s and noticing cycle changes or just curious about what’s ahead, this episode is a must-listen.
