Did you know perimenopause can start in your 30s — long before most people expect it? In this eye-opening conversation, I sit down with Kim Benoy, host of Midlife with Courage, to break down what peri- and menopause actually are, how they affect the bodies of people with uteruses, and why it’s about so much more than just hot flashes.
We cover:
-
The wide range of physical and emotional symptoms (many people don’t realize are related)
-
How hormone shifts impact daily life
-
Essential oils that can provide real, immediate relief for some symptoms
-
Why early awareness is key to navigating this transition with confidence
🎧 Whether you’re approaching midlife, already there, or simply want to be better informed, this episode is packed with supportive information and actionable tips.
