Talking Sh*t

Navigating the Midlife Transition: Insights on Menopause

Jana Season 1 Episode 17

She’s a registered dietitian. A licensed therapist. A woman who gets it.

In this powerful conversation, Jennifer unpacks what so many women silently endure during perimenopause and menopause—not just the hot flashes or hormone shifts, but the emotional storm no one talks about.

💔 The grief of a changing body
 💔 The guilt around food and emotions
 💔 The fear of losing control—and yourself

It’s not just about age. Or weight. Or “getting through it.”
 It’s about listening to your body when the world tells you to push harder.
 It’s about choosing self-trust over self-criticism.

In this validating and deeply relatable episode, Jennifer reveals:
 ✔️ Why women feel so lost during menopause—and how to find your way back
 ✔️ How diet culture and perfectionism sabotage emotional well-being
 ✔️ What true self-advocacy looks like in a broken healthcare system
 ✔️ Why healing means feeling—and food is never the enemy

If you've ever felt like you're falling apart while trying to hold it all together...
 If you're craving permission to stop performing and start being...
This conversation is your invitation.

You’re not failing.
 You’re evolving.
