My guest today is one of many people who felt like she was losing her mind as she entered menopause. 

Dr. Arianna Sholes-Douglas is an integrative healthcare practitioner and visionary in the field of women’s health. She has practiced medicine for three decades and is the author of  The Menopause Myth: What Your Mother, Doctor, and Friends Haven’t Told You about Life after 35

The menopause was intense for her, and inspired her to reassess everything in her life, including her long career in medicine, eventually making the decision to transform her work life and start a practice supporting women in menopause with an integrative, holistic approach.

In our conversation:

- We walk through Dr Arianna's 'signs you’re healing in menopause' and how they showed up for her personally, including the patterns that she broke through menopause, how to find our way to self forgiveness, and how to set boundaries.

- How our brain chemistry changes in menopause and how this is reflected in the shift from people pleasing to ‘what do I need?’.

- Dr Arianna's 'Jewels for the Journey' and the sacred role of menopause in our lives.
