    Why You Don’t Feel Like Yourself in Perimenopause with Louise Kerwin

    Today I’m joined by Louise Kerwin, a Naturopath, Clinical Hypnotherapist and Alignment Coach from Australia who works with high-achieving women navigating perimenopause and menopause. Louise believes menopause is about far more than hormones. Her work explores the connection between the nervous system, stress, nutrition, identity and the beliefs we’ve carried for decades. She helps women understand why they no longer feel like themselves and guides them towards feeling strong, confident and connected to the woman they’re becoming. Today we’re diving into the emotional, physical and mental side of perimenopause that often gets overlooked.

    Beyond the Marketing: The Science of Menopause Supplements

    Today I’m joined by Yin, a product development technologist with more than 20 years of experience in food, nutrition, and dietary supplements. Originally from China, Yin moved to New Zealand at 19 and has spent her career developing consumer health products backed by science. Like many women, her interest in menopause became personal when she entered perimenopause herself. That experience inspired her to create MenoMora, a brand focused on supporting women through every stage of menopause using evidence-informed nutrition and a holistic approach. Today we’re diving into what the science says, where supplements fit in, and how women can make informed choices without getting lost in all the marketing.

    How to understand labels with Minal Patel, a qualified Naturopath and Food Scientist.

    Today’s episode is one every woman over 35 needs to hear.We spend so much time talking about calories, protein and supplements, but how often do we stop and look at what’s actually in the food we’re buying? Food labels can be incredibly confusing. From “natural” and “low fat” to “high protein” and “no added sugar”, there are so many marketing claims that it’s hard to know what’s genuinely healthy, especially during perimenopause and menopause.Today’s guest is Minal Patel, a qualified Naturopath, Medical Herbalist and Food Scientist. Before helping women rebalance their hormones naturally, Minal spent years working in the food industry, giving her a unique understanding of food labels, ingredients, allergens and what really goes into many of the products on our supermarket shelves.Today we’re cutting through the marketing, learning how to read food labels with confidence, understanding which ingredients matter most during perimenopause and menopause, and sharing simple shopping tips that can support your hormones, energy, gut health and weight loss. If you’ve ever stood in the supermarket wondering what to buy, this episode is for you.

    Skin & Menopause with Françoise Krings-Servais, co-owner of Vivéa Skincare

    Today we’re talking about something that almost every woman notices during perimenopause and menopause, but very few people prepare us for how dramatically our skin can change. Many women suddenly notice dry skin, increased wrinkles, sensitivity, redness, itching, flushing, loss of elasticity, or products they’ve used for years no longer working. Today’s guest is Françoise Krings-Servais, co-owner of Vivéa Skincare, a New Zealand skincare brand created specifically for women in perimenopause, menopause and beyond. What I love about Vivéa is that it was created by women who went through this stage themselves and realised there was a huge gap in the market. The range has already won two Gold Awards from the New Zealand Society of Cosmetic Chemists for innovation, and today we’re going to talk about what really happens to our skin during hormonal change and what women can do to support it.

    Why muscle mass is important for women over 40 with guest Eske Dost .

    One of the biggest mistakes women make during perimenopause is focusing only on losing weight.The scales might go down, but if you’re losing muscle instead of fat, your metabolism slows, you’re more likely to regain the weight, your bones become weaker, your balance declines, and everyday tasks become harder as you age.Today’s guest is Eske Dost from Inspire Change NZ. Eske is a wellbeing professional with expertise in strength and conditioning, nutrition and weightlifting, helping people build stronger, healthier bodies.Today we’re going to unpack why muscle becomes so important after 35, what actually happens during perimenopause, and how building muscle can completely change not only your body composition, but your health, confidence and quality of life for decades to come.
