Gorgeous, this episode is a ride.

Today, I’m joined by my dear friend and perimenopause truth-teller, Nicole Jardim, hormonal health educator, practitioner, and author of Fix Your Period. Nicole is in the thick of her own perimenopause journey right now and — in true Nicole fashion — she’s breaking it down with honesty, wisdom, and the humor that makes you feel like you’re having wine on a couch with your best friend.

If you’ve ever wondered…

“Is this perimenopause… or is my life just unhinged?”
“Why is my doctor telling me I’m ‘too young’ when I’m very much falling apart?”
“What if I’m the ‘healthy one’ who still feels like a shell of myself?”
“Will hormones help? How do I even start?”

…pull up a chair, Gorgeous. This one’s for you.
