As we wrap up , here’s a gentle reminder to take with you.✨

Menopause is a season of change, and while not every change feels easy, this chapter can also be an opportunity to get to know yourself in new ways, let go of old expectations, and discover what you need moving forward. 🌷

Thank you for tuning in throughout this month, for taking the time to learn, reflect, and be part of these conversations. Whether you’re navigating menopause yourself or learning how to better support someone you love, I hope these posts have reminded you that you’re not alone in this journey. 😌🩷

Menopause can leave you figuring things out as you go. One day, the things that used to feel familiar can suddenly feel a little different. Your energy, your routines, even the way you move through your day. 🍃

But what if you didn’t have to keep playing by the old rules? What if you could give yourself permission to experiment, adjust, and discover what works for you now?

You can have days when you’re frustrated and days when you’re hopeful. You can miss the way things used to be while still being curious about what’s ahead. There’s room for all of it. 🌷

What’s something you’ve given yourself permission to do differently during this season? Share them in the comments! 💬

Plot twist: This season of life can hold a little magic, too. 🌙✨

What a beautiful evening it was at this month’s Motivation Circle, The Magic of the Menopause Transition!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening of movement, meaningful conversations, and connection. It was wonderful to create space for women to learn, share, and explore the menopause transition with a little more grace and compassion.

Of course! Elite Fitness Co. deserves so much appreciation for providing such a relaxing space for us to gather and for choosing Melanie Larson, MA,RDN, CMCS and Elizabeth Boothby as the first partners in their Community Wellness Series. I am so grateful for the opportunity to be part of this wonderful initiative! 🩷

Here’s to giving ourselves more room to slow down, listen to our bodies, and embrace the changes that come with each season of life.

Until our next Motivation Circle!

It can be frustrating when your mind doesn’t seem to keep up with you the way it used to. 🧠

This feeling of frustration is understandable and valid, especially when you’re used to being the person who remembers everything and keeps things running.

But please don’t turn every moment of forgetfulness into a reason to criticize yourself.

You are allowed to have difficult days without making them a reflection of your abilities or your worth. 😌

🩷 Sometimes, compassion begins with the way we speak to ourselves.

✨ The more women gather, the longer they live! ✨

That’s a wrap on Whole Hearted Nourishment, A Half Day Retreat! 🧘🏻‍♀️🤍

Together, we explored what it means to nourish ourselves from the inside out, navigate life’s transitions with greater understanding, and make room for rest through an immersive sound healing experience.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this gathering so special! We’re grateful to our expert guides, Melanie Larson, MA,RDN, CMCS, Kimberly, and Casey Deiter, for sharing their knowledge and gifts, and to Amy Fanning for welcoming us into their beautiful and relaxing space.

This day was a lovely reminder that caring for ourselves doesn’t always mean doing more. Sometimes, it means pausing, reconnecting, and allowing ourselves to simply be. 🍃

We’re so grateful for everyone who helped bring this experience to life, and we look forward to creating more opportunities to connect, learn, and nourish our whole selves together.

📲 Stay tuned for future gatherings!

Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten why you went there, struggled to finish a thought, or felt like the simplest tasks suddenly take so much more effort?

And then wondered, “Why am I having such a hard time with things I used to manage so easily?” 🤔

But before you blame yourself, it may help to understand what could be contributing to these changes. Hormonal shifts, sleep difficulties, the mental load of midlife, and even previously unrecognized ADHD can all be part of the picture for some women. 🌷

➡️ Swipe through to learn why ADHD-like symptoms can become more noticeable during menopause. Share this with someone who might be wondering why her brain feels different during menopause.

I’m so excited for this month’s Motivation Circle at Elite Fitness Co. 🌙

We’ll be talking about something so many women experience but don’t always feel prepared for: the menopause transition.

If you’ve been feeling frustrated by changes in your body, wondering what’s happening, or simply looking for a space where you feel understood, I’d love for you to join us.

✨ The Magic of the Menopause Transition ✨

📅 Thursday, October 22 | 6–8 PM
📍 Elite Fit Co, 1364 N McDowell Ave, Petaluma

I’ll be joining Elizabeth Boothby of New Moon Yoga & Wellness to share practical guidance, explore ways to navigate this stage of life, and create space for honest conversations and connection. 🤍

My hope is that you’ll leave feeling more informed, supported, and compassionate toward yourself. Because this transition deserves understanding, not fear.

If you’ve been thinking about coming, consider this your invitation! Bring a friend, come as you are, and let’s learn from each other. 🧘🏻‍♀️

We’d love to see you there!

What an honor to speak with the culinary students at the United States Coast Guard Academy today! 🇺🇸

I dressed in my red, white, and blue in honor of my son, a United States Marine. ❤️🤍💙 It meant so much to be in that space as a proud Marine mom.

They invited me because of my work with Blue Zones Project Petaluma, and it was a joy to share my journey: becoming a Dietitian, starting my own practice, and what I’ve learned along the way.

My message to them? Getting back to the basics of eating real food is the best medicine for mind and body. 🥦🍠🫘

The people who will be feeding our service members are doing work that matters so much. Thank you to the students and staff for the warm welcome and the great questions. I left inspired!

What’s one “real food” meal that makes you feel your best? Tell me below. 👇

Life can make us very good at postponing ourselves. 🍃

We’ll get to it later. When things settle down. When everyone else is taken care of. When there’s more time.

But perhaps you don’t need to wait for the perfect moment.

Maybe you can start by noticing the parts of yourself that still want to be seen, explored, and cared for. Give them a little more room in your life. 🙂‍↕️

✅ For so many years, life can feel like one long list of things that need to get done.

Then one day, you realize you’ve become very good at taking care of everything except the things that make you feel like you.

Menopause can be a time to pause and reconsider what deserves your energy now. 🧘🏻‍♀️🩷

Not every empty space needs to be filled with another task. Some spaces can simply belong to you.

If you know someone who is navigating this season, share this with her. It might be the gentle nudge she needs to think about what she wants for herself, too. 🌷
