Do you ever feel like your hormones control your life?
Your hormones affect almost every system in your body, so when you're going through hormonal changes, it can really wreak havoc on your life. I asked Dr. Sara Poldmae to join me for this episode of the Leading Lady podcast to talk about what's going on with our hormones in midlife and how to take back control.
You don't have to feel terrible all the time. There are simple and gentle things you can do to support your body and regulate your hormones to improve your symptoms, whatever they may be. Headaches, fatigue, mood swings, and aches and pains are all common complaints, but there are so many other things you might be experiencing that you never knew were caused by hormones. Let's unpack it all in this episode.
Dr. Sara Poldmae is a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine and a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner who has been practicing holistic healthcare since 1998. She focuses heavily on women's healthcare, including fertility, PCOS, PMS, and menopausal issues, but she enjoys working with a wide variety of complex health issues.
Topics covered in this episode include:
How hormones affect almost every system in your body
Challenging the norm that you're supposed to feel bad during menopause and hormonal changes
How to feel your best at this time in your life
If you want to feel your best in midlife, this one's for you.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
