Tea & Truth: Honest Talk for Women in Midlife
Host: Lynne Wadsworth, Holistic Health Coach
If you’ve been feeling inflamed, tired, foggy, or just not like yourself lately, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. In today’s Tea & Truth, we’re breaking down exactly what to eat in midlife to balance hormones naturally, reduce inflammation, boost energy, stabilize mood, and finally feel at home in your body again.
This is your personal guide to midlife nutrition that works with your changing hormones, not against them — no dieting, no deprivation, no guilt. Just nourishment, support, and the simple shifts that make everything feel lighter and easier.
Whether you’re in perimenopause, menopause, or postmenopause, you’ll learn how specific foods influence estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, insulin, thyroid health, mood, sleep, cravings, and metabolism — and how you can feel more vibrant, steady, and energized in this beautiful season of life.
Grab your tea and let’s dive in.
