Today’s episode of Feminine Roadmap is an empowering, encouraging message on how to thrive through menopause with Dr. Vicki Mondloch. Dr. Vicki is on a personal mission to empower women to be in charge of their healthcare, their lives and their hormones. Menopause does not have to be a horrific, hopeless experience, you CAN actually thrive through menopause with the right information and support. Dr. Vicki shares powerful research and case studies that show that imbalanced hormones lie at the core of women’s difficult menopause seasons. While menopause is a natural normal process that women go through, most women find themselves dismissed or their symptoms disregarded as if there is nothing that can be done for them outside of pharmaceuticals or toughing it out. There is hope and help because Dr. Vicki has written the owner’s manual for enhancing the best years of your life (Yes, the BEST years of your life), “Full Bloom: Health and Happiness Through Hormone Balancing”. She believes that not only is it possible to get through menopause without losing your sanity, you can actually thrive through menopause when you have the right doctor, tests, and protocols to support your body as it changes. So grab a cuppa something wonderful, a hand fan (if you need it), a notebook and get yourself ready to be empowered and get on the road to healthy, happy hormone balance so you can thrive through menopause! http://www.feminineroadmap.com/episode135/
