Fertility & Perimenopause with Jennifer Redmond

In today’s episode, my guest Jennifer Redmond and I talk about 2 things that no one loves talking about - perimenopause and fertility & how these two things interact. 

This is an important topic - for all women - for those that haven’t entered peri-menopause yet, for those TTC, and for those that will be a new mom in their early/mid forties. 

There is a ton of valuable information and insights in this episode. So definitely take a listen, even if you think it doesn’t apply to you.

Jennifer Redmond empowers women to take a 360-degree view of their wellness and helps them implement customized dietary and lifestyle changes to boost fertility or manage (peri)menopause. A fertility and hormonal health expert, she is a Certified Integrative Nutrition Coach and graduate of the Women’s Functional and Integrative Medicine Professional Training Program. Formerly, as the co-founder and editor-in-chief of FertilityAuthority, and the Director of Communications for RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association she has literally written and edited thousands of articles on fertility and women’s hormonal health. Jennifer is also the Board President of Resolve New England, where she leads a Childfree after Infertility Support Group.

What we cover in this episode:

• Why we should be talking about perimenopause and fertility

• What are the signs and symptoms of perimenopause

• Jennifer’s nutritional tips for hormonal health - for supporting fertility & perimenopause

• Being a mother to young children while going through perimenopause and how it’s different

• The mental/emotional effects of hormonal change

• Why we shouldn’t fear perimenopause and instead notice it’s subtle changes

• How to support yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally through hormonal shifts

I really enjoyed recording this episode with Jennifer. Her wealth of knowledge and experience with hormonal health is so deep and her positive and warm energy made this somewhat taboo topic easy to talk about! 

If this episode spoke to you - I hope that you will check out what Jennifer has to offer for hormonal health support - for fertility and perimenopause! Also remember that a consistent nurturing yoga practice can help to balance hormones and support your fertility and any transitions you may be going through.
