Sleep is crucial for overall well-being, but for women going through perimenopause and menopause, sleep can become elusive. Hormonal shifts, increased stress, and other factors disrupt sleep patterns, leaving women feeling drained.
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Betty Murray and together we explore the intricate relationship between hormones, gut health, and sleep, offering valuable strategies for finding relief.
Dr. Betty Murray is a women’s health advocate, nutrition expert, PhD researcher, certified functional medicine practitioner, author, and speaker. Betty helps women over 40 harness their hormones to lose weight, optimize sleep, restore energy, and thrive. During her research for her PhD, Betty made several key discoveries that lead to hormone & metabolic imbalances that plague women over 40. Restoring balance to these key metabolic and hormone pathways is the basis of her Menopause Metabolism Mastery Program.
