The Menopause Disruptor Podcast

Welcome to The Menopause Disruptor Podcast, I’m your host, Mary Lee, a compassionate Menopause Doula and Licensed Menopause Champion in partnership with The Menopause Expert Group.

My mission is to challenge outdated narratives around menopause. The menopausal transition is a natural phase of life that deserves to be embraced, not stigmatized.

Reflecting on my own encounters with the lack gap in female hormonal health and leaning in on my experience in science communication and public relations practitioner, I decided the time is now to rewrite the script and bring truth and reliable resources to the forefront.

In each episode, I tackle taboo topics and disrupt the status quo on how we think, act, and treat menopause - peri to post. Join me in these informative conversations, either alone or with credible guest experts, as I dive into real, raw, and relatable discussions surrounding the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of aging.

It’s time to reclaim our voices and advocate for our health with confidence.
Midlife should be the best life, and it will be!

Eat Wise for Menopause: Create a Better Food Relationship with Kim Hynes

March 11, 2024 • Mary Lee, Menopause Doula • Season 1 • Episode 23

In this episode with Kim Hynes, a certified nutritional coach and host of The Emotional Eats Podcast, we explore the challenges of emotional eating and body image issues in midlife.

Kim discusses the significance of intuitive eating, the impact of cultural and societal influences on women's perceptions of food and body image, and the importance of listening to one's body for a healthier relationship with food. Kim offers insights into how dietary choices affect emotional and physical well-being, addressing topics, such as permission of restriction of certain foods we deem are bad, gut health and its role in all the systems of our body, practicing mindfulness eating, and the myths and benefits around intermittent fasting.

In our conversation, Kim and I emphasize empowerment, self-acceptance, and the journey to finding one's unique path to wellness amid the menopause transition.
