Perimenopause Simplified

More women are turning to online telehealth companies for hormones, peptides, and thyroid support - and for good reason. These platforms have made care more accessible and more empowering than ever. But access doesn't always equal personalization.
In this episode, we explore when telehealth hormone clinics can be a great fit, where their limitations lie, and how to know whether you need simple support or a more strategic approach in perimenopause. 
You'll learn:
Why telehealth HRT and peptide clinics are rapidly growing
What these companies do well (and who they're ideal for)
Where protocol-based care can fall short in complex midlife cases
How hormones, minerals, thyroid, stress, and metabolism are interconnected
How to decide between telehealth or personalized functional care

You were told your iron is low - but is that really true? In this episode, Claudia breaks down why low ferritin does not automatically mean iron deficiency, why so many women are incorrectly told to take iron supplements, and how incomplete lab testing leads to more confusion and symptoms.
You'll learn: 
Why ferritin alone does not tell the full iron story
Key iron labs most providers miss (serum iron, transferrin, iron saturation, TIBC/UIBC)
Additional labs that are essential to assess iron status
Why iron supplements can make symptoms worse
Common causes of low iron and low ferritin in women over 40
How heavy periods, low progesterone, and fibroids affect iron status
The role of gut health, stomach acid, and stress in iron absorption
What a root-cause approach to low iron actually looks like

You've likely heard about magnesium being a miracle mineral and you're probably taking a supplement to help with some of your perimenopause symptoms, but supplementing randomly often leads to frustration.
In this episode, I unpack why so many women over 40 struggle to raise magnesium levels, why electrolytes matter more than you think, and how minerals like sodium and potassium determine whether your body can actually use the magnesium you take.
If you're tired of guessing with supplements and want a smarter plan, this episode will help you understand what your body actually needs — without the hype.
 
You'll learn:
What magnesium does for hormones, mood, sleep, and metabolism after 40


Hidden drains on magnesium (i.e. stress, medications, alcohol, processed foods, etc)


Why many women don't feel better on magnesium – and what cofactors are missing


The truth about electrolytes and why they may not be working for you


How HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis) helps reveal whether you're absorbing minerals or just guessing

Feeling exhausted, wired, and stuck in a loop of burnout? You do everything right: sleep, clean eating, supplements…but still feel like your energy is on fumes.
In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why hormone tests alone often miss the root cause. We'll dive deep into how mineral depletion (you read that right) is the missing piece of the puzzle for many over-functioning, type-A women.
You'll learn:
• The true signs of burnout vs. what's "normal aging"
• What your body is trying to tell you by saying "you can't rest"
• How I use HTMA (hair mineral analysis) in my practice (and why we start there)
• Patterns I see in high-achieving women over 40
• Actionable steps to rebuild energy physically, emotionally, and hormonally
This one's for the woman who literally can't slow down, even though her body is begging her to. If this feels like you — hit play.

Women over 40 aren't just "busy" – they're overloaded. In this episode, we talk honestly about why so many midlife women feel like they're drowning: the pressure to over-function, checked-out partners, overbooked kids, rising costs of living, comparison culture, and hormones pushed past their limits. 
You'll hear what most people are afraid to say out loud and practical shifts that help you slow down, ask for support, set boundaries, and build a life that actually feels sustainable.
What You'll Learn:
Why so many women slip into "masculine overdrive" and what it costs your health


How passive partner dynamics get created (and how communication can change it)


The invisible mental load most women carry every single day


How overscheduling kids and volunteering yourself into exhaustion keeps you stuck


The impact of social media, body trends, and constant comparison on midlife women


Simple, realistic shifts to create breathing room, protect your energy, and feel like yourself again
