Menopause Breathwork and Nutrition

The Menopause Identity Crisis No One Talks About

Today’s episode is such an honest and important conversation about the emotional side of menopause- the identity shifts, mental load, and struggles so many women experience but rarely discuss openly. Joining me in this episode is Wendy Naumovski, a hair and makeup artist of over 30 years, salon owner, author of Wendy Talks Menopause. After decades of listening to women share their struggles from behind the salon chair, Wendy personally experienced menopause in a way that completely changed her life and understanding of women’s health. Today, we’re talking about: * the emotional impact of menopause * feeling like you lose yourself during midlife * why so many women feel unsupported * and how women can begin rebuilding confidence and identity again You can connect with Wendy on Instagram @wendy_the_brand [https://www.instagram.com/wendy_the_brand/] and you can find her book here: Wendy Talks Menopause [https://www.amazon.com.au/Wendy-Talks-Menopause-Learned-Thrive-ebook/dp/B0GQKJF4JC?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQPOTM2NjE5NzQzMzkyNDU5AAGn8CmBi0KMAKnmgP-byUUCrthj3OkCP2EK0Mvjt6g3ZU3Ln7IawJNaZzUzupg_aem_YWdncwBywsmNpPnchytZSzyvwmCP&brid=YWdncwGKdhxCTfxRgGQJuXwfzhuN]

The Midlife Health Trifecta

In this solo episode of The Healthy Menopause Podcast, I break down why menopause is far more than a conversation about symptoms, and why it should be viewed as a critical health intervention point for women. I introduce my Midlife Health Trifecta framework, exploring the three key systems most impacted during menopause: ✔️ Muscle ✔️ Bone ✔️ Metabolic health Drawing on the latest evidence in menopause physiology and exercise science, this episode unpacks: * why women become more vulnerable to muscle decline and frailty during midlife * the silent impact menopause can have on bone density and osteoporosis risk * how hormonal changes influence metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, and body composition * and why resistance training and targeted exercise are some of the most powerful tools women have to support long-term health This episode is a powerful reminder that menopause is not the beginning of decline, it’s an opportunity to intervene, build strength, and protect future health.
