Mastering Menopause And Midlife
This isn't just a podcast about menopause. It's a conversation for women navigating perimenopause and menopause—while running a business and wondering if you can sustain it all.
Hosted by Dr. Adrienne Stein, Naturopathic Doctor and Business Alignment Coach, this show is where biology meets business strategy. Each week, you'll hear real talk about hormone shifts, burnout, brain fog, nervous system regulation, and how menopause impacts your energy, clarity, and business success.
If you've been wondering why your body feels off, your business feels impossible to sustain, and nothing works like it used to— you're not alone.
This is where we explore menopause-proofing your business. A time to work with your body's rhythms. Restore your energy. Realign how you work. And build a business that actually supports who you are now—not who you used to be.
Work with your body, not against it.
