Hot, Bothered & Balanced: How to Make Friends with Your Hormones in Midlife

Let’s be honest, menopause can feel like an emotional rollercoaster you never asked to get on. One minute you're fine, the next you're overheating, overwhelmed and wondering why your mood just flipped out of nowhere.

But what if menopause wasn’t something to fear or feel lost in? What if it was simply a transition, one that you can navigate with confidence, clarity and support?

That’s exactly what I talked about with Joe Steele on his brilliant podcast Hacked to Health, in an episode called Hot, Bothered & Balanced. We explored how women in perimenopause and menopause can stop feeling at war with their hormones and start feeling like themselves again, with no gimmicks, no quick fixes, just real, practical tools.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why menopause symptoms aren’t random — and how to decode them

  • The surprising ways hormones affect your energy, mood and metabolism

  • Simple food swaps that make a big impact

  • How to rethink midlife as a reset, not a crisis

  • Small lifestyle shifts that bring big relief

Whether you’re dealing with brain fog, stubborn weight gain, skin changes, or mood swings that seem to come from nowhere, this episode will leave you feeling seen, understood and empowered to take action.

Menopause doesn’t have to mean struggle. With the right strategies, rooted in nutritional science, self-care, and a dash of mindset magic, it’s absolutely possible to feel better, look radiant and get back your spark.
