Are Hot Flashes Hormones or Something More? A Side of Menopause Nobody Talks About

What if everything we've been told about menopause is only half the story? In this episode of the Menopause Mindshift Self-Love Podcast, I sit down with Rev. Dr. Joanne Angel Barry Colon, author of The Menopause Portal, who's spent over four decades in the health, fitness and wellness industry.   We flip the narrative on menopause completely and explore the other side of the coin, from what your hot flashes and 3 AM wake ups might really mean, to how moon cycles connect to our own cycles, to the trauma and grief we hold in our bodies and how to finally release it.   Dr. Joanne shares why our body is our biggest messenger, how astrology can be your navigation system, and why this chapter isn't the end but the best time of a woman's life. Whether you're deep into the metaphysical or brand new to it, this conversation will get you thinking about your symptoms, your energy and yourself in a whole new way.   Dr. Joanne's info: www.wholisticfitnessny.com https://www.facebook.com/wholisticfitnessny [https://www.facebook.com/wholisticfitnessny] https://www.instagram.com/wholisticfitnessny [https://www.instagram.com/wholisticfitnessny] https://www.youtube.com/@WholisticFitnessNY [https://www.youtube.com/@WholisticFitnessNY] https://www.linkedin.com/in/wholistic-fitness-barrycolon-2468jab [https://www.linkedin.com/in/wholistic-fitness-barrycolon-2468jab] https://www.tiktok.com/@wholisticfitnessny [https://www.tiktok.com/@wholisticfitnessny] https://www.skool.com/blood-sisters-portal-4909/about [https://www.skool.com/blood-sisters-portal-4909/about]   💖 Ready to Rise?
