Episode 43: All things Menopause with NP Angela Jones

In this episode, I’m joined by Angela Jones, a nurse practitioner who specializes in women’s health and menopause care. We talk about perimenopause, menopause, hormones, sleep, bone health, weight changes, and how to advocate for yourself if you feel dismissed by a provider.

Angela explains the difference between perimenopause and menopause, why symptoms can feel so unpredictable, and why women need better information and support during this stage of life.

We also talk about strength training, protein, sleep, vaginal dryness, hormone therapy, and what women can do to protect their long-term health and feel better in their bodies.

This conversation is informative, practical, and encouraging for any woman navigating midlife changes.

In This Episode
