Jill Chmielewski is a Registered Nurse, Certified Health Coach, advocate for aging women, and is very much like me, on a mission to change the way we approach menopause and aging. She helps midlife women break free from the mainstream way of thinking where disease and decline are accepted as an inevitable part of aging ~ and embrace the notion that it’s absolutely possible to feel vibrant, happy, healthy, balanced, sexy, and strong through midlife and beyond.

Customer Reviews
Master biohacker
Zora is extremely educated and goes out of the box to find everything underneath the sun on how to optimize yourself from perimenopause into menopause and beyond. She tries to help women leave a fulfilling and vivacious life.
Much needed podcast on much needed topic
The transition to menopause can be lonely and confusing. Conversations like this can be so helpful in making one feel that they are not alone and that their experience is normal. I also follow the host on Instagram where she interviews women all over the world about their menopause experience. I get so much comfort from the much needed community she has created around this topic! Thank you so much for creating this space ❤️.
Grateful
To have women helping women at all ages of life. So much of media is about 18-35 year olds. After that it feels like women retract and hide. “Feels like”. But so many women thrive after 40 or 50 and these podcasts show us it possible. So much positivity and helpful advice.
