06-27-24 Connecting During Perimenopause with Bria Gadd
Ever wondered about the secrets your body holds during perimenopause? How this stage of life affects not just your physical health, but also your relationships? Join us as we unravel these mysteries with Bria Gadd – a personal trainer, holistic health coach and integrative nutritionist with a special expertise in female hormones. Bria guides us through the facts and myths surrounding perimenopause and menopause, highlighting the critical transitions occurring during this period in a woman’s life. She emphasizes the importance of understanding this stage, as it affects 40 million women worldwide, half of whom don’t understand the distinctions between perimenopause and menopause.
We break down myths like menopause being caused by estrogen deficiency while discussing the role of progesterone. We also focus on the body’s need for more energy during certain periods, how this affects metabolism, and how low-impact movement can contribute to our overall wellbeing during this time. We then shift our attention to how cortisol and inflammation factor into our physical health, the significance of age and lifestyle habits, and how we can better handle and understand these changes.
Finally, we discuss the four pillars of health: sleep & rest, nutrition & fuel, movement & exercise, and pleasure. These pillars not only form the foundation of our health but also strengthen our relationships. Bria shares valuable insights into why some women struggle more than others during perimenopause and how we can ensure we are not one of them.
Wrapping up the episode, Bria leaves us with resources and advice for women and partners to smoothly navigate this challenging yet rewarding time in life.
