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.

Hormonal Chaos: The Hidden Impact of Insulin Resistance in Menopause
In this episode I challenge the common perception that menopause symptoms are solely due to declining hormones. Instead, we talk about how the drop in hormones leads to deeper imbalances bubbling to the surface which fuel symptoms. One of the imbalances that is very common in menopasue and midlife is insulin resistance and it can fuel a lot of menopause symptoms. In this episode we talk about the role of insulin and the consequences of insulin resistance, and its links to various health issues. I also outline 4 powerful strategies to manage and correct insulin resistance, promoting overall well-being and symptom reduction in menopause.
