When I was in my mid-40s, I started hearing the word perimenopause.
Like many women, I didn’t know much about it. My friends and I compared notes—feeling hot when everyone else was cold, anxious for no reason, restless at night—but none of us had answers.
That changed when I began working with Feisty Media. We launched a brand dedicated to active women navigating menopause, and I dove deep into the research that Selene Yeager was presenting to us each week.
By the time I showed up at a new doctor’s office a few years later, I thought I was prepared.
Armed with a notebook full of symptoms—anxiety, joint pain, a frozen shoulder, weight gain—I was ready to have a real conversation.
But when I mentioned perimenopause, my doctor brushed me off. She said my regular periods ruled it out. When I pushed, she sent me for hormone tests. A few days later, the portal message came:
“Your hormone levels are normal. You’re not in perimenopause.”
I was stunned. One of the first things we teach about perimenopause is that hormone tests only show what’s happening that day—they don’t diagnose the transition. I’d done the research, found a qualified provider, and still felt dismissed. And I’m not alone, women in our community tell me stories like this every week.
Here’s the truth: perimenopause is real, it’s confusing, and it often gets overlooked by the very people we turn to for help.
That’s why we created the Perimenopause Starter Pack—a simple, science-backed course that helps you finally understand what’s happening in your body and what you can do about it. Because when you have the right tools and knowledge, everything changes.
Inside the Starter Pack, you’ll learn:
✅ What’s really happening with your hormones, how long the transition lasts, and how to spot the early signs
✅ How to make sense of mood shifts, sleep issues, irregular periods, and other common (and surprising) symptoms—without confusing medical jargon
✅ Practical steps to support your body—from getting the right bloodwork to small but powerful tweaks in exercise and nutrition
And right now, you can get it for just $29 (regularly $79).
