We do not see patients under the age of 18. Simply put, functional medicine is the future of health care. Many traditional health care providers treat the symptoms of an illness, usually with pharmaceuticals. Disease is often treated as something pre-ordained, a result of genetics or environment. No attempt is made to find a root cause of a problem nor do most physicians consider more nuanced heal

th care practices like diet and lifestyle management. As Dr. Mark Hyman, the president of the Institute for Functional Medicine, noted, this country doesn’t “have a healthcare system. We have a disease management system.”

Functional medicine involves understanding the origins of chronic disease, in the hopes of preventing its onset. If that’s not possible, doctors who practice functional medicine seek more thorough and innovative ways to treat complex disease.

What are some of your biggest life mistakes and is there a theme? I’d love to hear.
Midlife for me is a time of throwing off the shackles of expectations of other people, but also being very intentional about listening to my intuition, but then acting on it without any remorse. I used to think that taking care of myself first was selfish. I was also taught early on that bringing attention to myself was also unattractive. This led me to not away, standing up for myself, not promoting myself when I could’ve and even not accepting compliments when they were definitely due. I did this for decades. I guess it took burning out and my business shutting down, leaving me in a place where I could ask the question what the hell went wrong? Now I did a lot of things right however there were so many times where I didn’t take care of myself first I’ve realized this is not selfish at all and I make sure to tell all of my midlife women clients that self-love, self compassion, acting on your own intuition and taking care of oneself first is absolutely necessary. This is the only way that you can truly be of service in the world, live an authentic life and give back to the things and the people that you love.

What are your biggest life mistakes? Do you notice a theme?
I’m trying to use any mistakes in regret of my life to teach me something moving forward and one thing that I know in midlife is that I always need to listen and take action on my intuition and never apologize for doing so the other thing is always take care of myself first this is not greedy or selfish. Although women are always taught to believe that if they take care of themselves first that somehow they are both of those things.
Meanwhile, women get burned out by over giving, lacking their own self love self compassion, and putting everyone else first. It’s practically burned into our DNA because so many of us were raised with these messages. The true reality is that the only way we can make a big impact and be kind and generous of service is if we take care of ourselves first.

What is your midlife glow up? Sure I care about my skincare and love a good dress up but it certainly not where I spend all my time. I want my life to be expansive and focused on travel, meeting new people and making connections. Challenging myself to learn new things like languages and hobbies. I also believe that when you tend to your inner glow up it shows up on the outside

I know this is going to p**s a bunch of people off but I had to say it. And in reality I am not against vision boards or any time of positive inspiration. They can be very helpful. but they do not work on their own. Be honest how many times have you created a list of goals or vision board and then nothing ever materialized. Because we often don’t even know where to start. We get completely overwhelmed by the prospect of doing all the work to get to that goal or vision. And then it’s so much easier just to give up because we think we’re supposed to know the entire plan and have it perfectly laid out and ready to roll. Reality is more like we have no idea where to start, but we start taking small little actions. We watch some educational videos we open up an LLC we go to a networking event, we join an entrepreneur group. We do some research. We start writing up a business plan. Little tiny moves. Because each action we take is really what helps us build confidence. It also educates us and moves us further along to our goal and yes, there will be many mistakes and failures and humiliations even but write the entire process. There is growth. We learn what we like what we don’t like what we’re good at. And soon before we realize it wonderful things start to happen. That vision starts to come into place. It may not be exactly what we imagined a few years before it may even be better.

Are you sick and tired of the outdated narrative about menopause? Most of the attention paid to menopause is that it’s a terrible time and a woman’s life. Focus us on her physical, aging her loss of youth and vitality and her disappearance and uselessness because of a loss of reproductive power. But the reality is that the loss of fluctuating hormones opens up a woman’s life to greater expansion. Yes, the physical changes can be challenging, but there are significant benefits as well. I think it’s about time that the modern western medical world and culture see the menopausal transition and afterwards as a leveling up for women.
