Exploring Perimenopause: Insights for Women's Health with Jill Chmeilewski The Simplicity Sessions

In this episode, I am joined by Jill Chmielewski as we cover crucial conversations about understanding perimenopause, highlighting the importance of tracking symptoms and informed decisions about hormone replacement therapy (HRT). We discuss the profound effects of HRT on sleep, body composition, and mood, and the role of diet, stress management, and strength training for hormonal balance. We stress the need for women to seek help without hesitation when symptoms become overwhelming.

Jill created The Beginner's Guide to Hormone Replacement Therapy to help women navigate the wild ride from perimenopause through menopause and beyond. In 2022, she launched Pausing Together, an online community for women to connect, learn, and open up discussions on topics that affect "PAUSAL" women.
