Opt to Thrive
Opt to Thrive is a health and wellness podcast designed to support, educate, inspire, empower and motivate midlife women to live their healthiest, happiest most fulfilled lives. Motivated by her own life experiences and the punch in the face that was the midlife transition, Dr Corina Sims created Opt to Thrive.
Dr Sims is a rural GP Obstetrician with a passion for connecting with and empowering other women to be the best version of themselves. Disappointed with the plethora of contradictory information targeted at perimenopausal and menopausal women and recognising the gap in medicine that has been identified GLOBALLY in managing women going through it she strives to bring evidence based information to those who are searching for the answers.
Listen in every week where on one week you’ll find either a short and sweet episode designed to uplift, inspire and give helpful tips to manage your mind and a longer episode the next created to educate and inform.
