So you have hot flashes? Hot flashes often occur in perimenopause & menopause, but there are other hormonal shifts that can produce them as well. Your body detects a change and release the mechanism to feel hot and start sweating. This temperature regulation issue means that your body is struggling to process hormones, mainly the liver & digestive system. Many women even have night sweats/hot flashes before their period starts! Although hot flashes are not necessarily bad, they are uncomfortable and signal that there is work to be done in the body. In this episode, I dive deeper into hot flashes, common mistakes when treating them and how to get those hormones on the right track!

I get asked ALL the time, "Why am I so tired?" Many doctors will just look at someone and tell them to "just lose 20 lb and you won't be so tired" when really there is much more to the picture. Something to consider with fatigue - are you able to feel better after more sleep? If not, there is definitely a deeper issue and it has NOTHING to do with laziness. Many times it's an adrenal/cortisol issue, so I wanted to spend some time on what this looks like. The goal of this episode is to open the conversation around fatigue, exhaustion and adrenal issues that so many of us face.
