Episode 89
The Menopause with Nutritionist and Health Coach, Lisa G
Lisa believes in using food as medicine.
“The starting point for me with clients, if appropriate, is to balance out stress levels. I like to work holistically, it’s never ever just about the food you eat it’s all about small sustainable changes.”
I met Lisa on a retreat. She hosted my welcome interview and instinctively knew I was on the edge of burn out. I was so comforted by her warmth and expertise that I invited her onto the podcast.
From a young age Lisa suffered with polycystic ovaries and severe hormonal imbalances. After an early surgical menopause she was left unsupported and alone.
Lisa is a menopausal hormone expert and because of her own experiences dedicated to supporting women through any “hormonal storm”.
We talked about hormones and menopause but had so much to say that we may well record some more.
Stay tuned!
