Are You There, Midlife? | Perimenopause, Weight Loss, Fatigue, Brain Fog, Hormone Imbalance, Balance Hormones Naturally

The Go-to Podcast for Midlife Women Who Want To Balance Hormones Naturally

Ugh. I feel so bloated. I’m retaining more water than the Hoover Dam.

What? Not another pimple? It’s like puberty all over again!

Sleep? What’s that like? (I forget.:<)

Umm, I just turned 40….. Aren’t I too young for this?!?

Hello Friend.

(Can I call you “friend”? ‘Cuz we’re already friends in my head:)

Welcome to Are You There, Midlife? It’s Me, Monica.

I’m Monica Topete, Certified Holistic Health Coach and Hormone Imbalance Survivor. And I’m on a mission to help women in midlife balance their hormones naturally without drugs, doctors (or divorce!)

It wasn’t too long ago when perimenopause came crashing through my door with a ton of luggage (‘cuz she was prepared to stay for A WHILE!)

I remember how overwhelmed, anxious, and pretty much clueless I was about what was happening to my body…and how desperate I was for a diagnosis!

But, after SEVERAL visits to my doctor who gave me a clean bill of health and lab results that came back “within normal range,” I finally decided to take my health into my own hands.

I spent OVER A YEAR combing through PubMed research studies, taking online courses in naturopathy and functional medicine, and becoming my own human guinea pig to crack the hormone code and create a research-based program that really worked to balance my hormones, put the kibosh on perimenopause symptoms, and lose stubborn weight–and keep it off–for more than 10 years!

And now, I want to share it with you.

Join me as I demystify the hormonal transition in midlife and spill the ”tea” on what to expect when you’re expecting perimenopause…and beyond.

From anxiety to insomnia, body fat to funky body odor (yeah, that’s a thing!), I’ll unpack all the ”weird stuff” going on inside our midlife bodies, plus give you the latest science and holistic solutions to balance it all.

Are you tired of dealing with heavy, painful periods that look like a crime scene?…

Or struggling with symptoms like chronic headaches, fatigue, or brain fog that….(Oops! What was I saying again?)...

Are you beyond frustrated doing “all the things” to lose weight—but are still packing on the pounds faster than a sumo wrestler in training?…

Then, you’re in the right place.:)

There is a way you can balance your hormones naturally that doesn’t involve band-aid solutions like antidepressants or birth control pills (which are a BIG mistake! HUGE!)...and that only provide temporary relief without fixing the root problem.

In this podcast, you’ll learn how to:

- End painful periods and PMS

- Improve your sleep and reduce hot flashes and night sweats

- Alleviate hormonal headaches, fatigue, joint pain, and gut issues

- Reduce mood swings and depression (without meds)

- Move the scale on stubborn weight and belly fat

- And talk to your partner about perimenopause (without sounding like you’re totally insane!)

- It’s time to take back control of your hormones and show ‘em who’s boss!

...Without ever stepping foot inside a doctor’s office or resorting to crazy hormone pellets.

No need to make an appointment or even change outta your PJs.

Just come as you are–wherever you are–and listen in as I discuss ALL things hormones and midlife–with a bit of saucy humor.

(‘Cuz laughing is better than crying, unless it makes you pee.:)
