I have developed a course that will help peri-menopausal women — well people who don’t feel well as they move into their 30s, 40s, or early 50s — go from fatigued, irritable and foggy-headed to energetic and focused women so that they can go through this life transition called perimenopase in a state of wellness and be able to take part in all of the life activities they enjoy.
Do you or someone you know have symptoms that may include fatigue, insomnia, foggy thinking, low s*x drive, body changes, bloating and mood changes that have been evaluated by a healthcare practitioner and told all testing completed is normal and are given no answers to address your symptoms?
If those symptoms sound painfully familiar, I would love the opportunity to speak with you or someone you know about the course and share how I can help you address the symptoms you are having during perimenopause. Make sure to check out the testimonials below from women who have taken the course!

I am currently doing research to develop an online class to help women in the peri-menopausal years (basically age 35 to 50ish) who have developed symptoms that can include fatigue, insomnia, foggy thinking, low s*x drive, body changes, breast tenderness and mood changes. These women have often been evaluated by a healthcare practitioner and told that all testing completed is normal and are given no answers to address their symptoms.
If you are experiencing or know someone who is experiencing this change in life, I would love to connect via Zoom to ask a few questions so I can make sure to develop a course that addresses the most common and most challenging symptoms of peri-menopause.
I have set up a calendar on Calendly for you or someone you know to schedule an appointment to chat with me about this project within the next thirty days. Below is the link to schedule an appointment:
