Episode 5…Even if it feels like your body is going crazy with perimenopause symptoms, you’re not crazy! You’re just swimming in a hormonal soup called mid-life.

More importantly, you’re doing your damnedest to keep up with life – kids, work, partner or spouse, aging parents, a post-pandemic world, body changes, and all the things life throws at you.

In this episode of the Savor Food and Body Podcast, I talk with Dr Jenn Salib Huber, a Canadian Naturopathic Doctor, and Registered Dietitian, who’s on a mission to help women thrive in midlife.

Jenn helps women navigate the physical and emotional symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, including their search for food freedom and body confidence.

Using a Health At Every Size® approach, Jenn teaches women to become intuitive eaters and build body confidence in their 30s 40s, and 50s. She’s well-versed in perimenopause research and offers her clients integrative treatment options to deal with perimenopause and menopause.

Jenn strongly believes women need to come together to normalize the experience of midlife. Her online group program The Midlife Feat Community is open to women in any stage of perimenopause and menopause who want to regain confidence in their bodies and reclaim their health in midlife.
