RESOURCES FOR EPISODE

Your Spark Action Steps This Week

Incorporate one of the following action steps this week:

1️⃣ Reset your workday rhythm. Every 90 minutes, pause for 60 seconds. Stretch, sip water, or take three 4-2-4 breaths.

2️⃣ Eat for clarity. Pair protein, fiber, and fat at every meal to keep glucose and focus steady.

3️⃣ Track your focus dips. Note time of day, sleep quality, and stress level — patterns will emerge within a week.

4️⃣ Advocate for yourself. If you’re struggling, talk to HR or your manager about support options. You’re not asking for favors — you’re requesting fairness.

5️⃣ Join the Menopause Support Summit this week — it’s free, it’s packed with tools, and it’s proof that you’re not navigating this alone.

About the Podcast

MenoSpark Podcast
Holistic Health Support Through PeriMenopause and Beyond
Welcome to MenoSpark—the podcast for Gen X women who are done putting up with the confusion, silence, and BS around menopause. If you’re somewhere between “what is happening to my body?” and “why am I suddenly crying over insurance commercials?”—you’re in the right place.

MenoSpark is your weekly dose of real talk, holistic health support, and empowering insights to help you thrive through perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause. With expert guidance from yours truly (a board-certified sexologist and menopause care provider), plus candid stories, practical tips, and occasional guests, we’ll tackle everything from hot flashes to hormone balance, libido to bone health, anxiety to energy work.

This isn’t about surviving menopause—it’s about reigniting your spark.

We’ll explore a full-spectrum approach to wellness, blending physical, emotional, mental, and energetic tools to support you as your body evolves. Nothing's off the table, from medical care to mindset shifts, nutrition to nervous system support.

Whether you’re just entering perimenopause or riding out postmenopausal peace (with a heating pad and a glass of red), this space is here to remind you: you are not broken—you’re becoming.

So, if you're ready to move beyond the overwhelm and embrace menopause as a time of powerful transformation, come join the MenoSpark community. Together, we’ll reclaim this wild, wonderful stage of life with knowledge, confidence, and unapologetic energy.
