My Story
Midlife, menopause, and
the layer that brought me back.
I've spent years helping people regulate their nervous systems, clean up their nutrition, move their bodies, and address root causes through functional medicine. I know what the body needs. I've lived it and taught it.
Then menopause arrived. And it didn't ask permission.
I was training five days a week, eating whole foods, doing the somatic work I teach. From the outside it looked like I should have felt amazing. But something had shifted. Inflammation and weight up. Sleep got messy. Energy just wasn't there the way it had been — and no amount of doing the right things seemed to move the needle the way it used to.
So I started looking for the next layer. I had been quietly researching peptides for over a year. Between the menopause symptoms interrupting my daily life and watching my mother decline from late-stage dementia, my motivation to invest in my own longevity had never been higher. That's when I began my first peptide, GLP-1/GIP + B12 microdose. Within the first two weeks the weight started coming off and my energy started returning. My sleep improved. And by six weeks, lab markers that had been drifting out of range were restored. The numbers confirmed what my body was already telling me.
Four months in, the results have only compounded — ten pounds down, sleeping like I used to, the energy of my forty-year-old self back, and feeling more optimized than I have in years. I have also begun stacking additional peptides — MOTS-c and Tesamorelin/Ipamorelin — each chosen deliberately based on my labs, my current goals, and where I am in this chapter of life.
This is not a weight loss story. It's a reclamation story.
