My 335 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: mom walked through the door, like, what are you watching? 336 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: Because if you can imagine a woman is like in 337 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 1: a certain position having the surgery. 338 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 2: Knew well. 339 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: She was like, what are you watching? And I'm like, 340 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 1: a laparostopic hiss directed me and she was like, did 341 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: you what is that? And I said, well, that's what 342 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: I want to do. And I used to watch this 343 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: show called Heartbeat, which was all about obgyns, and I 344 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: was like, and that's what I want to do too. Wow. 345 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: So I decided that I wanted to, you know, be 346 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: the safe place for women, especially because I have a 347 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: history of domestic violence in my family, that I wanted 348 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: to be that safe place for women to express what's 349 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: going on not just with their bodies, but also spiritually, physically, financially, mental, 350 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: them emotionally, so when you come to me, we having 351 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: a full conversation. Right, Well, it's not like you a 352 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: servant of the Lord, because goodness, all right, I have 353 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: a question, all right, what's one myth about menopause you 354 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: wish women would stop believing one myth about menopause? Well, 355 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: this is an interesting question because right now they're actually 356 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: changing the FDA black box warning on hormone replacement therapy. 357 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: So a lot of people thought that they could not 358 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: utilize hormone replacement for the last twenty years due to 359 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: an article that came out or a study that came 360 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: out that told them, you know, it's going to kill them. 361 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: They're going to get more breast cancer, cardiovascular disease, all 362 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: that other stuff. So the myth is that more women 363 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 1: wo men are able to utilize supplements and or hormone 364 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: replacement therapy medications in order to help them navigate perimenopause 365 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 1: and menopause. So are for someone who like me, who's 366 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: like so far away from all of this perimenopause, can 367 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: you explain to me and our listeners what exactly is 368 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: menopause and perimenopause? Like, what is it? Because when I 369 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: love to start where so it's a change, right, and 370 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: I will tell you that if you live past the 371 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: A up to the age of sixty, you are going 372 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 1: to go through the change. Just like when you were born, 373 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: you went through adolescence, puberty, you're going through the change. 374 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: So perimenopause menopause is the change of our hormones. And 375 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,959 Speaker 1: I like to start with menopause because it's just like 376 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: more of a definitive space before I get the definition 377 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: of perimenopause. So menopause is when our hormone levels estrogen 378 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: progesterone dropped to such significant lows that we no longer 379 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: have a periods, so we're not menstruating for twelve months. However, 380 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: there's more than fifty different symptoms that are associated with 381 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: having the drop in your estrogen progesterone and your tsosterone. 382 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: So menopause officially is twelve months without your period or cycle, 383 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: and then after that is what people call postmenopause. But 384 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: I also like to say one myth to people, menopause 385 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,239 Speaker 1: lasts for your the rest of your life. That's the 386 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: that is the area you are in in your life 387 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: for the rest of your life. Once you stop having 388 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 1: your periods, you're in menopause. See I used to think 389 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: is like when you stop liking men men, know, pause 390 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: pause on these men because of you know, so. 391 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 2: That's what you say that teenage years. 392 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,239 Speaker 1: So that's funny you say that because you know one 393 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,479 Speaker 1: of the symptoms of the many symptoms is you can 394 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: have decreased libido, decreased desire. And I remember a few 395 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: of my friends to be like, oh my god, I 396 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: don't know what's happening. When they hit their forties, like forties, 397 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: was like, yes, baby, yes, they wanted to have sex, 398 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: the whole thing, right when you hit four and then 399 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, all of that energy just like 400 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: he continues to wax and wane. And that's where we 401 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 1: call the perimenopause. So prior to you going through menopause, 402 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,959 Speaker 1: which means you're not having periods anymore, the perimenopause is 403 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: that time before, and that time before can be anywhere 404 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: from five to ten years prior to your actual menopause. 405 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: Most people go through like the stage change that one 406 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: year between the ages of forty eight and fifty two, right, 407 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: but that time before that, that is that perimenopausal time. 408 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 1: And you know, a lot of people think about fertility right, 409 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: So their reproductive time, so that perimenopause you can still 410 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: get pregnant. Your hormones are just like doing this. Yeah, 411 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: so your hormones are doing this. And it's just like 412 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: I tell people, the way we start is the way 413 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: we end. So if you had puberty, if you remember puberty, 414 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: that's what mental pause is like as well. So that's 415 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 1: why I've never had a ZiT in my fucking life. 416 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 1: Excuse my French, but all of a sudden I got 417 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: zits on my jawline. Is that a symptom of perry? Perhaps? Yep? 418 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: Face So estrogen? So estrogen, the decrease in estrogen, progesterone, testosterone. Right, 419 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: Remember I told you there's fifty different symptoms or more 420 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: that people can have. Now, Estrogen is in the in 421 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: every part of our body, our skin, our hair, are 422 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: you know, our our brains, our heart, everywhere is estrogen. Okay, 423 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: So when you're starting to see things start happening. And 424 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: then also depending on what you're doing for your nutrition, 425 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: and I recommend people to eat what we call the 426 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 1: Viva life five fruits, vegetables, nuts, rains, beans, drinking our 427 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: water and if you eat meat that make sure it's 428 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 1: you know, high quality, as clean as possible. But if 429 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: you're if you are eating outside of those things, you're 430 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: going to see your body respond even more to having 431 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: this decrease in estrogen. So that is what is going around. 432 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: Your hormone levels are dropping and you are starting to 433 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 1: see the our bodies respond, our tissues respond, our organs 434 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: respond to that. Should we be taken like estrogen? Sorry, 435 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: So it is that is a very personal conversation. So 436 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: every single person should have that conversation with their provider 437 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: because we have to think about what's your family history, 438 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: what's your personal history, and there are certain things that 439 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: if you are active, like if you have active breast cancer, no, 440 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 1: we're not going to give you hormone replacement, right, we 441 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: may and sometimes we can do something local to the vagina, 442 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: but that's one of those things we have to have 443 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: that conversation about. If you have excessive i mean, excuse me, 444 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: uncontrolled hypertension, we have to have a conversation about that 445 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 1: because the cardiovascular risk could increase depending on what your 446 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 1: cardiovascular risks are. So it's not that it's a complete no, 447 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 1: but we have to have a conversation with you about 448 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 1: your personal history. In order to recommend. Now, hold on, 449 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: you said you could do something to the vagina, what 450 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 1: is it? Tighten it, make it more wet, like what 451 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: is it for? Shop for shop? 452 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 2: So, as you know, your vagina is very like responsive 453 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 2: to estrogen, So the estrogen, collagen, the juiciness, all of that, right, 454 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 2: we need to make sure that we are able to 455 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 2: keep that, like you said, moisten wet, if. 456 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: That's what you so choose and how you so choose 457 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: to use it. One thing I tell people, and this 458 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: is a I don't know if it's a mythory, Well 459 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,719 Speaker 1: it's a truth on my basis. If you don't use it, 460 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 1: you will lose it, Okay. 461 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 2: So the point of the matter is get worried about that. 462 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: I'll go through like spirits. Well I don't. 463 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 2: But and so what I say is if I use it, 464 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 2: I don't like you. 465 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: We gotta make sure it's clean, healthy, and as wet 466 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: as you want it to be.

When we talk about estrogen replacement, that is 499 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 1: definitely the the therapy that is going to help you 500 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: with your hot flashes. That's like the gold standard to 501 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: help prevent the hot flashes, which is what most people 502 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: hear about. But then there are other opportunities for us 503 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: as well if you don't want to use estrogen based 504 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 1: or progesterone based products. 505 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 2: Is this true or false? Like does having a direct 506 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 2: me cause perimenopause or menopause Earlierly? Like that stage to 507 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 2: happen early, Because when you talk about knowing your family 508 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 2: history and stuff like that, I don't know a woman 509 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 2: in my family who's not over you know, fifty who 510 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 2: have not already had a hysterectomy from my mom, aunt's 511 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 2: older cousins. So I can't pinpoint what's what Like, I 512 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 2: am always happy when I see my period, right right, 513 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,959 Speaker 2: So yeah, I love seeing my period because I mean, 514 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 2: I'm still I'm still youthful. I can still get pregnant, 515 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 2: pop that couch. I can do all things, okay, But 516 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 2: how do you know when everybody like, I don't know 517 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 2: when my mom would have went through menopause, especially now 518 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 2: you're saying like when menopause starts, it doesn't stop, like 519 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: that's just the rest of your life is menopause. Right now, 520 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 2: I don't know the difference between PMS and or menopause 521 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 2: with these old ladies. 522 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand, I understand. It's me. Yeah, so ask 523 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: your question again because I got in, you know, with 524 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: the PAPTA. I got throw off with the pop. Sorry, 525 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, pop couci because listen, it's women in menopause 526 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: still popping their koucie. Don't get yes, absolutely, which is 527 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: why I need to mention this that we still need 528 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: to even though people are like, oh, I can't get 529 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: pregnant because I've gone through menopause, my eggs and run out. 530 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: The likelihood of me getting pregnant is very, very low. 531 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: But I never put anything past the higher power. We 532 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: still need to prevent STDs. So gotneria chamitia herpe' heppatitus HIV. 533 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: So because people are living longer, stronger, and thriving past 534 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: their fifties, we still need to reprevent all of that. 535 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 2: But go back to your menopause quicker right, oh with 536 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 2: instaur Yes, that's what. 537 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: So. So it's interesting because hysterectomy means removal of the uterus. 538 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: But if you ask the woman if I you've had 539 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: a hysterectomy, many of them don't know whether or not 540 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: they got their ovaries and rears remove, right, so it's 541 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: not even a partial hys direct me. The removal of 542 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: an ovaries is called a oopharectomy, that's what it's called. 543 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: The removal of the tubes is called a salping jectomy. 544 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: The removal of the uterus is called a hysterectomy. So, yes, 545 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: you have to very much get into the nuance with 546 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 1: people about that. Now, sometimes when you remove the uterus, 547 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: some of the blood flow that would be going to 548 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: the ovaries decreases, so people can see the changes. Like 549 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: I said, you can have some minstrul excuse me, you 550 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: can have some perimenopause symptoms that seem to come on 551 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: maybe not faster, but because you have decreased blood flow, 552 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: you're getting those types those same type of symptoms. It's 553 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: more when that estrogen level is gone. So if you 554 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: have your ovaries removed, then yes, no longer are you. Yes, 555 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: you are in medical or surgical menopause right then and there. 556 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: So you can have surgical menopause, meaning that I took 557 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: out your ovaries or decreased the significant flow to your ovaries. 558 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,959 Speaker 1: You can have medical menopause, which means I gave you 559 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: medication to stop the function of your ovaries. Or you 560 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: can have what a quote unquote natural menopause, where you've 561 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: just matured and aged into menopause. And that is a 562 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: questions because so many people are like, welly have my 563 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: uterers taken out? I don't know if I'm gone through menopause. 564 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: If you listen to your body, you will absolutely know 565 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,239 Speaker 1: when you stop cycling. But we have to be in 566 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: tune with our bodies. And that's why I teach a 567 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: lot about mindset and knowing yourself from the inside out. 568 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: I had a friend she was fighting breast cancer, and 569 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: she said that she was going into early menopause because 570 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: of the medicine is that this happened from chemotherapy will 571 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: send you into early menopause. So that's what we call 572 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: medical menopause. So yes, you can you can actually end 573 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: up starting to have the symptoms. You can fully go 574 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: into menopause, or you can go into a state of 575 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: you know, stopping where those medications are stopping the hormones 576 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: from functioning that they normally do. And that's the whole purpose, 577 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: especially when you have an estrogen or progesterone positive breast cancer. 578 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: So you can either be paused or you can actually 579 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: fully go into the menopause. And everybody is a little 580 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: bit different how they respond to those therapies and medications. 581 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 2: And don't they they're like medication that can I was 582 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 2: gonna say, don't they have like a medication that can 583 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 2: like basically if you're going through chemo, that can like 584 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 2: guard your eggs correct. 585 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: So they do put you on medications that can help, 586 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: like I said, make that pause happen so that it 587 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: can help protect right, But we don't know until you 588 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: come off with all the medications whether or not what 589 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: functionality you're gonna have. And that's typically not something that 590 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: they're just gonna do for you. You gotta pay for that, 591 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: right like, because well, no, that that a lot of 592 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: times is a part of your therapy, and they should 593 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: be having the conversation with women in regards to how 594 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: do I protect my ovaries, how do I continue to 595 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: maintain my fertility? And also and then I'm thinking you're 596 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: talking about potentially egg harvesting, so when I harvest my 597 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: eggs so that I can save them so that I 598 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: can use them for later, either in my uterus or 599 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: womb or somebody else's. And that brings me to my 600 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: next question. Does stress play a part in how quickly 601 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: your body goes into the change? Absolutely? 602 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I think that especially for Black women, we are 603 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 2: known to go through menopause perimenopause about eight months to 604 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 2: a year earlier than women women are kind of part right, 605 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 2: non women of color, I guess you could say Caucasian women, 606 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 2: whatever you want. 607 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: To say, bege. So, yeah, and I do believe that 608 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: that is associated with the amount of stress and weight 609 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: that we carry from racism, structural racism, discrimination, prejudice, and 610 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: then just having the weight of the world on our shoulders, 611 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: you know, the financial responsibilities, the mental and emotional responsibilities 612 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: that we carry more than most people do. Stop stressing. 613 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna get old fast, and that's another reason why. 614 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: You know though, that's the only thing, right, get older faster. 615 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: But you will look it, I know, right, And a 616 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: lot of people are like, oh, I don't look my age, 617 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: and yeah, it's true. Many times we don't look our 618 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: age because I think that genetically, genetically, we have developed 619 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: protective mechanism so that we don't age in the same 620 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,719 Speaker 1: way that other people age. But I will tell you 621 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: if you are smoking, and if you are you know, significantly, 622 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 1: if you're OBEs, significantly overweight, if you are not managing 623 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: your cardiovascular health diabetes, it doesn't matter. You know, if 624 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 1: you're not doing those things, you're gonna look older than 625 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: you should. Amen to that. That's what I was going 626 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 1: to ask, like, when you how does fitness like, how 627 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 1: should we change our fitness when we're going to pair 628 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: mini pause, because I assume our metabolisms and things like 629 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,760 Speaker 1: that are affected by this as well. So you're absolutely 630 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: so it's slow. Your menabolisms are slowing down. And so 631 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: what I tell people is encourage young people already to 632 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: exercise whatever that is if it's dancing, dancing, zooma and 633 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: whatever it is, pilates, running, hiking, biking, getting out there 634 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,879 Speaker 1: and walking. Make sure you're doing that so young, if 635 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: you're young, put your kids in some type of sports 636 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: and make them do it. As you mature, continue doing that. 637 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: Find your community so that you can enjoy exercise. We 638 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: should be enjoying. We should be exercising five or six 639 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: times a week, if not seven, right, even if the 640 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 1: seventh day is going for a walk, but we should 641 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: be exercise and enjoying that. So and then as you are, 642 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 1: as you are aging, right, you should be increasing your 643 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: strength exercises. So that is why you know, even doing 644 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: resistance bans is so important. So adding weights you don't 645 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,399 Speaker 1: have to add, you know, significantly heavy weights. You don't 646 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: have to lift one hundred, two hundred pounds. You don't 647 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,280 Speaker 1: have to do that. You can lift twenty thirty pounds. 648 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 1: You can lift your own body weight. I mean, you 649 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: know you weigh one hundred and twenty one hundred and 650 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: sixty pounds or more. 651 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 2: N I never been able to lift my body weight 652 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 2: since I was an elementary. I can't never do a 653 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 2: pull up. 654 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, so be on there. But you know, we start 655 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: with we start with doing pushups. So in the morning, 656 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: when I wake up, I do my body scan and 657 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 1: this is part of my Vivi Life program that I do. 658 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: But I wake up, I do my body scan and 659 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: I ask myself, you know, what's going on in my 660 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: body from the top of my head down to the 661 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: sole of my feet, and how do I focus my 662 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 1: energy so I can heal that space. Then I get 663 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: down on the floor, I do my Calisenics and that's 664 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: push ups, that's crunches, that stretches, and I know it 665 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: sounds funny, right, So I don't know. My mom watched jacqu. 666 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 2: Lolaine, and you know I did a tibo when I 667 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 2: was in my twenties and thirties. Whatever you need to 668 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 2: do to keep moving and to keep that body, you know, strong, 669 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 2: those are the things that we need to do. 670 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,720 Speaker 1: I remember one time I went to this female doctor 671 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 1: and I was putting on weight and I was like, 672 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: but I just don't have time. My life is so busy. 673 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: I just travel and I work in two different cities 674 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 1: and I just don't have time. And she was like, 675 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,880 Speaker 1: I'm a mother of five, I'm a wife, I have 676 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: this practice and I still find time every morning to 677 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 1: get up and go to the gym. So what were 678 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: you saying? And then it becomes my hair and all 679 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: that other stuff. No, I schedule it. So one of 680 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: the things my family knows is the first hour of 681 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: the day is mine. That's where I meditate, journal and 682 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 1: get my exercise in, and then for the rest of 683 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: the day, I'm optimizing my nutrition, my hormones in my 684 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 1: sleep and I get my sleep. And so you're talking 685 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 1: to an obgyn who used to, you know, do thirty 686 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:14,280 Speaker 1: six hourships and still got her work out in because 687 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: it just makes you feel better mentally and emotionally, and 688 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: of course it's going to help the physical aspects your 689 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 1: heart health, prevent diabetes, prevent significant weight gain, all of that. Yeah. 690 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 2: The crazy thing is I have a consultation today at 691 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 2: a weightlifting gym. All right, Yeah, because I go to 692 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 2: the gym, but I don't be knowing what I'm doing 693 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 2: half the time, right, And I want to like, I 694 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:38,399 Speaker 2: just don't want shit to. 695 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: Move no more. 696 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 2: I want the body to stay kind of like the 697 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 2: same size, but I don't want no more jiggle. 698 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand, and that can happen. And so you're 699 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: being intentional about what you do and how you do it. 700 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: Because you don't have to be in the gym for 701 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: twenty two hours. You don't have to do that. 702 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,879 Speaker 2: It's a discipline inconsistency for me, man, I just got 703 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 2: to get some discipline in my life. 704 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: Yep, listen, I will. I did seventy five hard earlier 705 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: this year, and I was going to the gym twice 706 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 1: a day for seventy five days straight. And then right 707 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: after that, I did seventy five fat like right behind it, 708 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: run again seventy five You better cut it out. I 709 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: struggle with the consistencies, like just staying with it. That's 710 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,800 Speaker 1: my hardest part. I can do. I do the workouts, 711 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: I know the workouts, I know the routines, I know 712 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: how to live ways, but just going for life a 713 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: lifestyle change is what I struggle with. That is that 714 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: my kryptonite. So I don't I tell me understand. And 715 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: that's one thing that we have just incorporated in my life, 716 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, Like I said, it's on my calendar, and 717 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: don't mess with me.

Like 730 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: we encourage each other to do all of these things. 731 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: And it's not really like me saying you need to go, 732 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: it's them seeing me go.

And 738 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: let me ask you this, I never like, I never 739 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 1: heard of Peri menopause. I heard of menopause growing up, 740 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,839 Speaker 1: but Perry menopause was never a thing. 741 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: Is that the I just started hearing about it the 742 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 2: last Is it a new convent? 743 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: No, not at all. I mean, you know, I will 744 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: tell you when I first started hearing about it was 745 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: about twenty years ago when Oprah was on with doctor 746 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: Hill I think her name was hilde Brand or Hilda 747 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: greath but she they talked about What Women Need to 748 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: Know about Sex was the book, and so it was 749 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: a whole I mean, Oprah did a whole thing on menopause, 750 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,879 Speaker 1: just like she's doing now in perimenopause. But I will 751 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: tell you when I even when I was going through training. 752 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 1: You know, you grow up and they tell you're going 753 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: to have your period and they tell you don't get pregnant, right, 754 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: but they don't tell you anything between that or about that. 755 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 1: When I was going through my OBGUI N training, we 756 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: got the graphs that said this is what happens with estrogen, progesterone, testosterone. 757 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 1: I will be honest with you, it's not until you 758 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 1: hit the different stages that you're like, oh, this is 759 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: what they were talking about. So the reason why you 760 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,439 Speaker 1: feel like it hasn't been talked about is number one, 761 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 1: they stopped talking about it, especially after that whole Women's 762 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: Health Initiative, because they didn't want people to be on 763 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: horrimal replacement. Right. The other thing is it's coming up. 764 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: You're going into the time of your life where other 765 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,319 Speaker 1: people are going into the time of their life where 766 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: they're starting to feel these things, so you're more interested 767 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 1: in it. 768 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 2: Like, we don't talk about how to get pregnant until 769 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 2: you're trying to get pregnant, right, So same thing, You're 770 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 2: not going to. 771 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 1: Talk about perimenopause until you're going through the experience. 772 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,799 Speaker 2: So like, what are some of the symptoms that women 773 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 2: made mistake for something else but it's perimenopause. 774 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, so these are important things. So I'm gonna start 775 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: with the heart, right. So a lot of people actually 776 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: end up getting heart palpitations, anxiety, and sometimes some shortness 777 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 1: of breast, chest pain. But we also have to make 778 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: sure that we're ruling out what could kill you, right, 779 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: So we got to make sure that it's not a 780 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 1: heart attack. We got to make sure that is not 781 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 1: some other kind of arrhythm or changes in your heart rate. 782 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: But those are some of the things a lot of 783 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 1: people get palpitations anxiety associated with perimenopause menopause. The other 784 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: thing is people will notice that their weight changes, So 785 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: they start getting what we call the mino belly or 786 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 1: that mid that midriff weight game, that the what do 787 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: they call it, the upha, the punfa, whatever it's called. 788 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: But you know, yeah, so the muffin tops. So you 789 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 1: start getting that and people are like, wait a second, 790 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,120 Speaker 1: what's going on with that? And so we have to 791 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,839 Speaker 1: make sure are you having a gastrulinetestinal problem that's going 792 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: along with that? Is this friboids that's potentially going on? 793 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: So going back to the head to toe exam is 794 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 1: very important. And what I've noticed in mere cards, we've 795 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 1: gotten away from examining people so that we can make 796 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,399 Speaker 1: a differential diagnosis means what could this be and what 797 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: more likely is this? People also start having joint pains 798 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 1: and so they're like, uncle Arthur is here right, So 799 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: they think they have our ritis, but it's actually inflammation 800 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: because the estrogen actually moisturizes our joints, helps moisturize that. 801 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 1: So you know, those are some of the symptoms besides 802 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: the hot slashes, vaginal dryness, mood swings. Mood swings are huge. 803 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: But we have to figure out is this depression, you know, 804 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: is it truly depression? Do you have a bipolar exacerbation 805 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: exacerbation or is this associated with perimenopause or menopause? So 806 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 1: those are so so okay. 807 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:46,479 Speaker 2: So people going through perimenopause get like bipolar symptoms in hand. 808 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean if you if you ask, like my 809 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 1: best friend call and she was like, I don't know 810 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: what's going on with my my mom, and a lot 811 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: of men I'll tell you this too. A lot of 812 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 1: men will tell you this too. They're like, man, I 813 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 1: don't know what's going on over but she seemed like 814 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,760 Speaker 1: and then the other thing is as new as you mature, 815 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 1: you can also you know ad ad D. People can 816 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: get the you know, uh focused deficits. And you hear 817 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: me saying, because you get brain fog and you can't 818 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: figure out what word you're supposed to say. So then 819 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 1: some people are thinking they're going through Alzheimu's or yeah. 820 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'd be feeling like that sometimes. 821 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 2: But like I said, but when we before we started recording, 822 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 2: like I had, I mentioned this last week too, I 823 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 2: had a physical done and I'm like super iron deficient. 824 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 2: But that can also cause like the brain fog. That's hardness. 825 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 2: So I never once thought I was going through the 826 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 2: change though, But I knew something was going on. 827 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: But remember, you are going through change constantly. Our bodies 828 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,400 Speaker 1: are constantly changing, even on a blood change. Yeah, but 829 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 1: you are if I mean, if you're if you're in 830 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: your forties, you are going through the change. You just 831 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: haven't gotten to the big part of the change. You're 832 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: going through these small, minute, po portions of the change. 833 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, you're going through the change. 834 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 2: So okay, can you can you like, as long as 835 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 2: you have your period, that means you're not in perimenopause 836 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 2: and you're not in menopause. 837 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: So as long as you have your period, so let 838 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,879 Speaker 1: me put it this way, as long as you're continuing 839 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 1: to consistently have your period, then you are not in menopause, 840 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 1: but you can still be PERIMENOPAUSM. So the time prior 841 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 1: to you stopping your period for that twelve months is 842 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 1: called perimenopause. Now, one thing I want to say, because 843 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,720 Speaker 1: some people will stop their periods for the twelve months 844 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 1: and then have a period that needs to be investigated 845 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 1: for endometrial cancer. Mm. Yeah, we have to investigate that. 846 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,800 Speaker 1: So if you stop having your period going on, Yeah, 847 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 1: if you stop your period for twelve months and all 848 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 1: of a sudden you start having you know, bleeding, spotting 849 00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: or anything like that. Then that needs to be evaluated 850 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,720 Speaker 1: because it could be a form of cancer. It could 851 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 1: be and it could be you know that depending on 852 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 1: where you are, you can have significant stress that trigger something. 853 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,879 Speaker 1: You have this quartisole response you're you know, and then 854 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 1: you unfortunately start having bleeding, especially in women in fibroids. 855 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,320 Speaker 1: I've seen that happen to them where they have the fibroids, 856 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: and even though in menopause they should be shrinking, but 857 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 1: you're having some significant stressors going on and for some 858 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: reason you've triggered your hormonal milieu and it actually calls 859 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,720 Speaker 1: you to bleed. But even in that instance, I still 860 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 1: make sure I'm ruling out intimutual cancer do women, because 861 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 1: I feel like black women get fibroids more than our 862 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:33,919 Speaker 1: you know, counterparts. And does that affect like how quick 863 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:38,240 Speaker 1: you go into perry in menopause when you have fibroids, 864 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,399 Speaker 1: So fibroids doesn't affect that. However, your hormonal changes will 865 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 1: affect the fibroids. So that's why you see women having 866 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, growth of the fibroids. That's why you also 867 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: see them having these heavy, unbearable periods associated with fibroids. 868 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:58,319 Speaker 1: So that is all the fibroids are hormonally impacted. So 869 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 1: that's why you see some of the changes that are 870 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,840 Speaker 1: going on. I wouldn't say that having fibroids puts you 871 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: into perimenopause faster. Remember that is very much based on 872 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,959 Speaker 1: your brain hormones and your ovaries and that communication between both. 873 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 1: Why do you think that black women get fibroids more 874 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: than other people? Yeah? So, you know what, I'll be 875 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,360 Speaker 1: honest with you. Part of that is the stressors that 876 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: we are taking on because you know, estrogen doesn't just 877 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: live in our ovaries, it lives in the adipost tissue 878 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: as well. Okay, Cortisol responses from stressors, what we're eating, 879 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,560 Speaker 1: what our environments are, and then what our genetic history is. 880 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,799 Speaker 1: Oh and for example, my family, they all have many 881 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,640 Speaker 1: people in my family have had fibroids. I've never had fibroids. 882 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: I actually get my ultrasound done to make sure that 883 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 1: they check for fibroids. But I've also been on progesterone 884 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 1: for almost my entire life through my IUD. I also 885 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 1: like I said, practice the Viva Life five for my 886 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: entire almost my entire life, even before I named what 887 00:46:56,840 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 1: it was. That's what I do, and so minimize that stress, 888 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: making sure environmentally that I am, you know, not in 889 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: environments that could probably trigger the hormonal responses or growth 890 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 1: as well as what I'm eating. So food is your 891 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 1: medicine as well. Do you use sizing salt? Do you 892 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 1: use season of salt? Because I just cavery lawry is 893 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:23,719 Speaker 1: what's giving us fibroids, y'all stop you. So do I 894 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 1: use season in salt sparingly? I would say yes, I 895 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 1: do loud. You know I grew up I'm flowers too, 896 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 1: but I use it very sparingly. So if you come 897 00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 1: eat it at my house, you may feel like the 898 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 1: food might be a little bit more bland than you 899 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: used to. But that being said, you know, I don't 900 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,279 Speaker 1: have hypertension, I don't have diabetes, I'm not overweight, and 901 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 1: I'm doing this intentionally. So it's really important to when 902 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 1: you're seasoning your food to make sure that we're minimizing 903 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 1: the sovium that's attached to it. I swear y'all over 904 00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 1: the years, my mama's food is still good but it 905 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 1: tastes more like white people food because she don't use 906 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,919 Speaker 1: salt like that no more. She don't well fry no more, 907 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 1: she don't. Everything is changing. But I mean, you know, 908 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm adopting that a little bit. Okay, yeah, So, I 909 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: mean just taking out fried foods right will make such 910 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 1: a big difference. And what I tell people is if 911 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 1: you do it more than ninety percent of the time. 912 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 1: My colleague says eighty percent of the time. But if 913 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 1: you eat, you know, on that clean eating more than 914 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,399 Speaker 1: ninety percent of the time or even eighty five percent 915 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: of the time, you're going to be so much better 916 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 1: off than most people in America. Agent five. Yeah, what 917 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 1: is Viva life five? You've meant life now, So v 918 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: class stamps for live. Viva means live life. And what 919 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 1: we're trying to do is help people live their healthiest 920 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: and wealthiest life spiritually. Spiritually exactlycates from women getting money. Okay, 921 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: oh yeah, say we leave no bags on the table, okay, 922 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: So spiritually, physically, financially, mentally, and emotionally, and essentially what 923 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 1: this entails is you get myself and my fellow consultants 924 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:03,359 Speaker 1: to help you through webinars podcasts, affirmation rooms. So that's 925 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:09,400 Speaker 1: the mindfulness pa, journaling, meditating and incorporating that exercise, hormone nutrition, 926 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 1: and making sure that you sleep. So it's a community 927 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 1: that we've created in order for you to do five 928 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 1: things pretty much every day and eat those five foods fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, things, 929 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,920 Speaker 1: drinking our water. And if you eat meat, make sure 930 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 1: it's clean and high quality. Do you eat meat? I 931 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 1: do eat meat. I make sure I try to make 932 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 1: sure it's clean, the high quality. Now that might be 933 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 1: the ten percent that I'm not doing correct all the time, 934 00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 1: but yeah, I try to make sure that we're eating 935 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 1: high quality or minimizing it. You know what I'm saying. 936 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 1: I don't eat meat every single day. Do you eat 937 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:43,799 Speaker 1: pork at all? I do. I went through the whole 938 00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 1: phase of not eating pork at all, and I did. 939 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 1: I went through the whole you know, like it was. 940 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 1: It was funny, it was. I went to I went 941 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,240 Speaker 1: to college, right, I went to Xavier University in New Orleans, Bblisiana. 942 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: I went to HBCU and I was like, I'm not 943 00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:58,239 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna eat meat. 944 00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 2: And I got there and I had no money. So 945 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 2: you had to eat a cafeteria and guess what they 946 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 2: put out every Friday. Pork chop bacon. 947 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,600 Speaker 1: You're like, all you can eat bacon. I was like, yeah, 948 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,879 Speaker 1: some of that. Listen. Every time I meet someone over 949 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,359 Speaker 1: one hundred, I asked them do they eat port? And 950 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: they say yes. I ain't meant a person yet over 951 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 1: one hundred that said they don't eat no port. 952 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 2: It's not about the pork though, Like the food just 953 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 2: isn't what it used to be when they were our age, right. 954 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 1: So that's just like I don't eat a lot of things. 955 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just not the same. 956 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 1: I don't eat a lot of pork. If I do 957 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 1: eat any I eat fish, I eat beef, high quality beef. 958 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 1: And then if I eat pork, if I be a 959 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: pork chop. Right, So, but it's not fried and all 960 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 1: that other stuff. But I have everything in moderation and 961 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 1: choose where you're gonna be. Another big thing is alcohol. 962 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 1: So minimizing your alcohol is very important through perimenopause and menopause. 963 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: You know, people say one or two drinks a day, 964 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,319 Speaker 1: and I'm like that seems like a lot, But I 965 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:03,480 Speaker 1: would say minimize it to like one or two drinks 966 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: a week would be better. And if you're noticing that 967 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: you're needing to drink every single day, then we'll probably 968 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: need to talk about whether or not there's some alcoholism 969 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,319 Speaker 1: tendencies that are going on in your life. But that 970 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 1: will alcohol will exacerbate all the symptoms for a lot 971 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 1: of people. As I get older, I find that I 972 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,760 Speaker 1: used to have fun, a lot of fun with alcohol, 973 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,239 Speaker 1: but as I get older, I just feel like it 974 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 1: makes me sick. I don't feel good anymore when I 975 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:32,320 Speaker 1: drink it. I don't. It takes me like three days 976 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 1: to get better after just having two or three drinks. 977 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,720 Speaker 1: So does that have something to do with our bodies 978 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 1: changing too, like I can't liquor the same?

Sometimes I'll do a little 1004 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,759 Speaker 1: bit of castoil, olive oil. You know, just to make 1005 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 1: sure that I'm keeping my gud clean healthy is really important, 1006 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 1: So I do, heir, and I what made me bring 1007 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 1: this conversation too, like want to have this conversation is 1008 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 1: so my clients are aging with me, and a lot 1009 00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: of them are in their late thirties, early forties to fifties. 1010 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 1: I don't have that many twenty somethings anymore. I have some, 1011 00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: but not that many. And I kept hearing the conversation 1012 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 1: about perimenopause perimenopause, and I had one of my clients 1013 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 1: particularly say that she was concerned because her vagina is 1014 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 1: dry now. She's like, I don't know, Like I used 1015 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 1: to be pouring a glass of water out of me, 1016 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:36,520 Speaker 1: and now it's like a Sahara desert, like it's tumbleweed's 1017 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 1: rolling by when I pulled my kuchie out. Is there 1018 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 1: something that people could write? Is it wild wild watts? 1019 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:49,360 Speaker 1: Is there something because women can do or eat? She's like, 1020 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:52,800 Speaker 1: I'm drinking water, I drink hell of water. I'm eating fruit. 1021 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 1: Is there something that we could do or something that 1022 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 1: women can take to make sure that their vagina they 1023 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: keep it their wetness as long as possible when they're 1024 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 1: going through these changes. Yeah, so I will say always 1025 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: green leafy vegetables are very important, right, So making sure 1026 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,480 Speaker 1: that you're keeping your vitamin D, your iron levels up 1027 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:14,839 Speaker 1: as well as they're going to have what we call 1028 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:18,919 Speaker 1: adaptogens and nutrients that are going to help you keep 1029 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,439 Speaker 1: that collagen sometimes some vital estrogens and things like that. 1030 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:26,839 Speaker 1: But then also she can utilize basic things some olive oil, 1031 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:28,719 Speaker 1: a little bit of olive oil, daba olive oil or 1032 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 1: coconut oil in the area and the vaginal area could 1033 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 1: be very helpful. There's also products that kind of like 1034 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 1: there's a product call raplens, but essentially that is a 1035 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: lubricant she can use. But I'll be honest with you, 1036 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,520 Speaker 1: estrogen based products are like the best thing that you 1037 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 1: can use. If you're okay with using estrogen, place it 1038 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,799 Speaker 1: in your vagina, small amount in your vagina a couple 1039 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,800 Speaker 1: times a week, and it will help you significantly. Important 1040 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:58,799 Speaker 1: thing though, if you're finding that you're using estrogen, especially 1041 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: you're taking it by mouth or you have it on 1042 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:03,720 Speaker 1: a patch, or you're even using it in your vagina 1043 00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,320 Speaker 1: like every single day, then we need to talk about 1044 00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 1: if you still have a uterus using the progesterone as well, 1045 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: because we want to protect against that individual cancer that 1046 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 1: we talked about. Mm. Yeah, I started taking Maca. You 1047 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:20,320 Speaker 1: take maca? Yes? Good? Yeah? Oh absolutely helps with the libido. Yes, ma'am. Yes, 1048 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 1: Ostragonda maca what people, let's. 1049 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 2: Go, it's like a like a Peruvian like root. Is 1050 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:33,640 Speaker 2: a plant like ginger like root. Yeah, but it comes 1051 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:35,319 Speaker 2: and it tast really good too. It tastes like a 1052 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 2: like a like a nut. So if you put it 1053 00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:40,480 Speaker 2: like in a in a smoothie or something like that, 1054 00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:43,600 Speaker 2: it has like a peanut buttery flavor. It's real good. 1055 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. And then so I remember when I was having, 1056 00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:49,359 Speaker 1: you know, being at work and everything all the time, 1057 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: when I was breastfeeding my child. Finnagreek was another one. 1058 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:56,399 Speaker 1: And finnagreek is another plant based supplement that you can 1059 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,359 Speaker 1: use to help you moisturize, right, and it helps you 1060 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:03,279 Speaker 1: produce milk, so that that's another type of thing that 1061 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,520 Speaker 1: milk fits sole finigreed though, So though, there's if you 1062 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:10,680 Speaker 1: work with an integrated specialist or a natural path they'll 1063 00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 1: be able to give you more options in regards to 1064 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 1: more plant based therapies rather than just you know, estrogen 1065 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:18,920 Speaker 1: is the only thing you can use. 1066 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 2: In your organization. Is that what you push towards more 1067 00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 2: the holistic you know, because in the medical industry they 1068 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 2: want to push medicine. It's pharmacia Okay, that's the real, 1069 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:32,359 Speaker 2: real witchcraft as far as I'm concerned. Right, So they 1070 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:37,400 Speaker 2: push more you know, pharmaceutical medication as opposed to the organic. 1071 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 2: There's really not a lot of doctors out there that 1072 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 2: you know. I was just at the doctor recently and 1073 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 2: I told her I do black seed oil for my 1074 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:48,879 Speaker 2: blood pressure, and you know, she immediately went into, well, 1075 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 2: you know, the studies and all this other you know, 1076 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 2: trying to deter you from doing more alternatives. So that 1077 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 2: is that what you lean more towards as opposed to 1078 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:01,920 Speaker 2: like traditional medicine. 1079 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,799 Speaker 1: Right, So I'm about all of it, right. I try 1080 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,759 Speaker 1: to make sure that people know their options, whether they 1081 00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:12,840 Speaker 1: are non pharmaceutical or pharmaceutical. But I also try to 1082 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 1: make sure that people understand the risk benefits of each 1083 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:17,959 Speaker 1: because if we're talking about it, you know, many things 1084 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 1: are plant based, even if they are FDA approved or 1085 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 1: through the pharmacy, many hands are plant based. If you're 1086 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 1: compounding something then cassable. At a lot of times you're 1087 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 1: using some type of plant plant based. So I think 1088 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 1: it's really important, and I'll be honest with you. In 1089 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 1: traditional medicine, they don't teach this portion of supplements plant 1090 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 1: based medications or therapies, So which had come in that 1091 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:45,600 Speaker 1: y'all the real year. So that's why it's important. Like 1092 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:47,960 Speaker 1: I was saying, you know, look behind the name and say, 1093 00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:50,240 Speaker 1: are you a functional medicine physician? Have you gotten your 1094 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:54,320 Speaker 1: naturopathic training, whether it's a certification or your actual natural 1095 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 1: pactic doctor? And how do you put both of those 1096 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:01,960 Speaker 1: things together? What are my alternatives besides using what I 1097 00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 1: can get from former pharmacy. So give me non pharmacy 1098 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 1: and pharmacy associated therapies that can be useful for me. 1099 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: I believe in acupuncture, chiropractic work, like I've done all 1100 00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: these things, so I absolutely know that I don't have 1101 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 1: to be in pain. Excuse me, I don't have to 1102 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 1: take pain medications to resolve my pain. There's other options 1103 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 1: for it as well. The pain, not my pain, the. 1104 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 2: Pain, So let's not take that in our Let's not 1105 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:30,920 Speaker 2: take that in our bodies, right right. 1106 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 1: So I feel like I've always had a healthy sexual appetite, 1107 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:39,080 Speaker 1: but it feels like since I turned forty, Like, man, 1108 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, who's calling my phone? Who's calling my phone? 1109 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 2: Like I wake it up? 1110 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 1: I'm like horny, Like all the time is that like 1111 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 1: something that happens before Parry. Is that like normal or 1112 00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 1: is it? It is? So? I remember I told you 1113 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 1: in perimenopause, your hormones are doing this right, so you're 1114 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:57,400 Speaker 1: going through this wax and way, so you're really feeling 1115 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 1: so And also I told you perimenopause and many is 1116 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,680 Speaker 1: just like puberty, and what happened in puberty You found yourself. 1117 00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 1: You found all of that hotness. So that's one of 1118 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 1: the things that you can actually experience. And that's why 1119 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 1: you gotta be careful taking certain things like maca. Right, 1120 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,480 Speaker 1: you take maca, you go, you might elevate or take 1121 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 1: it like it helps men's libido. Jim, Yeah, absolutely, So 1122 00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: I'm going through I shouldn't take no moca right now 1123 00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,640 Speaker 1: because I might just have to be chandelier if I 1124 00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 1: take some of that shit. I feel like, yeah, you 1125 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 1: have to be careful. You have to be careful about it. 1126 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 1: And so that's why having that personal line conversation and say, Okay, 1127 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 1: what symptoms are you experiencing and what do what do 1128 00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 1: you want to temper or what do you want to improve? 1129 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing about you know, anything that 1130 00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: you decide to take you should be taking it because 1131 00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 1: it's supplementing what is going on in your body. So, 1132 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 1: like you said, you might not need maca root, but 1133 00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 1: you might need something to help you with stress or 1134 00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:00,439 Speaker 1: calm me down. So you know that's something, and that's 1135 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 1: a different opportunity for you. I will say, somebody asked me, 1136 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 1: do I have to take hormone replacement therapy estrogen replacement 1137 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 1: therapy progesterone if you still be uterus? And I will 1138 01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 1: say that the number one killer of women, especially black 1139 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:21,080 Speaker 1: women's cardiovascular disease point blank, hypertension, stroke, arrhythmius.

Now, you got to 1142 01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:30,080 Speaker 1: do all the other things too. So if you so 1143 01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:32,960 Speaker 1: choose not to take the replacement, then you got you 1144 01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 1: really got to do all the other things when we 1145 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 1: talk about the stress reduction, the exercise, the nutrition, and 1146 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,320 Speaker 1: the sleeps, and we really need to get our sleep, ladies. 1147 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:42,920 Speaker 1: I mean, there is nothing wrong with sleeping. 1148 01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:46,320 Speaker 2: I love down.

I was away from my husband, 1160 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 1: I was deployed when I was pregnant with my child, 1161 01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 1: so I didn't get like that, like pregnancy sex that 1162 01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 1: everybody was talking about. I didn't get all of that. 1163 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,160 Speaker 1: But Babe, when I turned forty, it was on the topic. 1164 01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 1: It's crazy. It feels like I'm crazy right now. It's great, 1165 01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:34,200 Speaker 1: it's wonderful. And bursic got me going so crazy right now. 1166 01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:37,920 Speaker 2: Yes, that I definitely be horny. Man, I don't want 1167 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 2: it to stop, though. 1168 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 1: I don't, so that's why we have no time. 1169 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 2: I don't wanted to stop. 1170 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 1: Not okay, That's why we're having this conversation so that 1171 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 1: we can prevent it from stopping. 1172 01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:50,480 Speaker 2: My doctor asked me the other day if I still 1173 01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:53,640 Speaker 2: get a period, I'm like, yes, the fuck I dude, 1174 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 2: I'm happy about it. I need to see my shit 1175 01:01:57,280 --> 01:01:57,840 Speaker 2: every month. 1176 01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 1: And it's really important to track yourself, right. People used 1177 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 1: to track their periods so they can see whether or 1178 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:04,920 Speaker 1: not they could get pregnant. Are they pregnant, that whole thing. 1179 01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:07,160 Speaker 1: But it's still important to track your cycle as you're 1180 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 1: going through this. And it's not just tracking the period, 1181 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,920 Speaker 1: is tracking the symptoms associated with the cycles. So remember 1182 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 1: your cycle is every twenty one to thirty days. That's 1183 01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 1: a cycle. The period is just the mysteration. That's just 1184 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:23,760 Speaker 1: a certain part. But you know you're going to feel 1185 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:26,720 Speaker 1: you know, more loving and accepting at some part in 1186 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 1: your cycle, and other times you'd be like, get off 1187 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:30,200 Speaker 1: of me, you know, I don't want to be bothered. 1188 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,320 Speaker 1: So it's really important to understand that and see how 1189 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:35,560 Speaker 1: many times you are feeling that through the day, because 1190 01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:39,080 Speaker 1: then you can start tracking your perimenopausal symptoms into menopause. 1191 01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 1: What conversation should mothers and daughters be having about menopause 1192 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 1: that most of us aren't all of this because you 1193 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:51,960 Speaker 1: know your children are going to experience your menopause, probably 1194 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:55,000 Speaker 1: they're going to notice something that's changing faster than you 1195 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 1: notice the change in yourself. So having these conversations with 1196 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:02,760 Speaker 1: your boys and girls or however they identify, and making 1197 01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 1: sure that you're having these conversations to say, you know, 1198 01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 1: this is the menstrual cycle, this is menc's, this is 1199 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 1: what happens when you're in your twenties to thirties. Is 1200 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,680 Speaker 1: what happens in your thirties and forties, forties and fifties beyond. 1201 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:15,800 Speaker 1: But in order to have those conversations, we need to 1202 01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:18,360 Speaker 1: be educated about those conversations, which is why I love 1203 01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:21,480 Speaker 1: coming on podcasts. This is why I love having corporate sessions. 1204 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 1: So we provide six corporate sessions to corporations organizations to 1205 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 1: improve women health in their organization, and then we do 1206 01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:30,320 Speaker 1: the individual discussions as well. 1207 01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:36,320 Speaker 2: So you're so ko koe, right, consult it's not just 1208 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:38,800 Speaker 2: for corporations. Individuals can also. 1209 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 1: Right, So the corporations. So that's why we created Viva 1210 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,800 Speaker 1: Life SPF ME, which is the program that's more like 1211 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 1: having the group conversation individually based, and that's where you'll 1212 01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 1: get the podcast, the webinars and the coaching sessions, right. 1213 01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,800 Speaker 1: But the corporate sessions are when we go in we 1214 01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:00,320 Speaker 1: try to improve health inequities for different healthcare plans as 1215 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 1: well as if we're like if I'm at Boeing or 1216 01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 1: something or another corporation, then we're working with the women 1217 01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 1: on the top five diseases that are happening. We're educating 1218 01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 1: them so that they have a health plan. Well, what 1219 01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 1: do I talk to my physician or practitioner about so 1220 01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:17,320 Speaker 1: that I can actually get the benefit out of this 1221 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,000 Speaker 1: healthcare plan instead of just like paying this, you know, 1222 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:23,439 Speaker 1: one hundred to one thousand dollars two thousand dollars a month. 1223 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,640 Speaker 2: Yeah and yees.

It's hard 1227 01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:35,160 Speaker 1: to figure it out to do those comparisons. But you 1228 01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:37,840 Speaker 1: know what go on chat GPT put in your information 1229 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:41,160 Speaker 1: and say what health care plan is best for me?
