How To Prepare for Perimenopause

If perimenopause is the storm before the calm, how do we prepare for it? In Part 2 of our month-long series on PERIMENOPAUSE and women’s health,, Dr. Jen Ashton (Founder, Ajenda), and Aarti Sequeira (Food Network) and I get real about the routines, remedies, and experiments we’re using to navigate this stage. From chia seeds vs. basil seeds, to hormones and hairpieces, to the power of pelvic floor therapy, nothing is off the table. Dr. Jen breaks down why protein and fiber are key (with an easy formula you’ll actually want to write down), while Aarti and I share the very real, sometimes hilarious, science projects our own bodies have become. Preparation isn’t about perfection. It’s about experimenting, listening to your body, and finding what works best for you. This conversation is part of our month-long series on PERIMENOPAUSE and women’s health.
