What Lifestyle Medicine Means For Perimenopause
About this episode
Ever heard the term “lifestyle medicine”? You probably assume (like I did) that it means to eat well, move your body, and get some sleep. But I actually looked into it and realized there was more to it than I thought.
In this episode, I am breaking down the 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine, plus the seventh one that nobody else has added before.
Lifestyle medicine is a root-cause approach to your health, built to treat, prevent, and sometimes even reverse chronic conditions, which makes it essential in perimenopause and menopause.
I am walking through all six pillars, why each one hits harder once your estrogen starts to drop, the seventh pillar I refuse to leave off, and exactly where to start so you do not feel overwhelmed.
If you are leaning on HRT or a GLP-1 and quietly wondering whether that is enough on its own, this one is for you.
What You’ll Learn
- What lifestyle medicine actually is, and why it is so much more than eating well and working out

- The seventh pillar nobody puts on the official list, and why it is the one that makes everything else stick
- Why your HRT, GLP-1, and supplements can help, but were never built to do this job alone
