Today's interview is with Dr. Fiona Lovely, a Chiropractor who is passionate about women's health, perimenopause and menopause, and holistic health. I was a guest on her podcast as well, and I'm so excited to have her on mine. There are some fantastic nuggets around women, how our brains and pleasure experience are different than men's, and how the beliefs we are brought up with can impact our stress at this time in our lives.
1:10 How Dr. Fiona Lovely got interested in women's health, perimenopause, and menopause, and why she became a chiropractor
5:14 The brain and its relationship to common symptoms like brain fog, memory lapse, forgetfulness, anxiety, and lack of focus. How metabolic and hormonal changes impact brain health.
9:40 The PINE System explained. (Psychology, immunology, neurology, and endocrinology.) The mind vs the brain and how a woman experiences her body based on her psychology and its effects on the different systems in a woman's body.
11:48 Coming into our own in this phase of life. We stop people pleasing and we don't want to take care of everyone else anymore.
18:43 How we detoured for procreation and signed up for two jobs and be great "little men."
20:14 How we forgot our job is to receive.
21:20 Distinctions between a woman's brain and a man's brain when it comes to pleasure.
23:25 The importance of stress management and our belief system about this stage of life. How you respond to manage stress is in your control and how you can rewire your system to feel safe.
31:20 Overthinking and calming the nervous system by getting into your body with movement. How we've been taught to forget to take care of ourselves by being productive and its impact on our health.
38:03 Discharging trauma and the inheritance of trauma.
40:50 How our generation's experience of this phase differs from generations before us. We will likely live for decades after our last menstrual period.
42:00 Be gentle with yourself and your final words. Take 25% of what you do every day and take it off the table and get into your creative self.
