How I Traveled to Napa Without Gaining Weight
Travel is one of the biggest triggers for midlife weight gain. Not because we’re doing anything “wrong,” but because travel disrupts blood sugar, hydration, digestion, sleep, and the nervous system all at once. I just spent a full week in Napa—wine tastings, restaurants, long days, indulgent moments—and I came home one pound up, which I’m confident was fluid weight. More importantly, I didn’t feel inflamed, puffy, or like I needed to “undo” my trip.

Winter Style Lessons from Europe (That Break Everything We’ve Been Told)
It tells us to dress thinner, tighter, trendier — as if aging means we need to correct, disguise, or discipline our bodies. Meanwhile, European women are doing the exact opposite…
and somehow looking calmer, more confident, and more chic every winter. Once you see what they’re doing differently, you realize why winter style has felt so hard — and why it doesn’t have to anymore.

Struggling With Menopause Brain Fog? I Have NONE…and No HRT!
At 51, I’ve returned to demanding legal work with clarity, focus, and energy—without brain fog, fatigue, or HRT—by supporting my body naturally instead of forcing it. This article explains why menopause brain fog isn’t a personal failing but a nervous-system issue driven by stress, cortisol, blood sugar instability, and inflammation, and why more caffeine or willpower only makes it worse. I share how an adaptogen-based approach—starting with stress regulation and nervous system support—restored my focus and mental stamina, and why midlife clarity comes from working with the body, not overriding it.

Hidden Truth About Menopause Weight Loss and Nervous System Support
If you are in perimenopause or menopause and struggling with anxiety — or that constant wired, on-edge feeling — you aren’t alone.
And you are not the problem.
For years, I thought weight loss struggles, poor sleep, cravings, and anxiety in midlife were personal failures. A lack of discipline. A need to “try harder.”
I was wrong.

The Menopause 3AM Wake-Up Call…And Why No One Tells You What to Do About It

I HATED Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) – I Chose This Natural Treatment Instead
Menopause symptoms aren’t driven by hormones alone.
For many women, stubborn belly fat, anxiety, poor sleep, brain fog, and relentless fatigue are fueled by cortisol, the body’s primary stress hormone. As estrogen and progesterone fluctuate, the stress response often becomes louder — keeping the nervous system stuck in survival mode.
This is where adaptogens come in.
Adaptogens don’t replace hormones. They support the stress response, help regulate cortisol, and calm the nervous system — which can dramatically change how perimenopause and menopause feel.
After trying both traditional and bioidentical HRT without success, I shifted my focus to cortisol regulation and adaptogen therapy — and it’s made a meaningful difference for me.
In this article, I explain how adaptogens work, how they differ from HRT, and why cortisol may be the missing piece in midlife wellness.
