We found her. The Girlfriend Doctor. The Queen of Hormones, Dr. Anna Cabeca. A triple board-certified OB/GYN and anti-aging expert, Dr. Anna helps women embrace menopause with a smile, enhance their sexual health (and libido), and age with grace and power.

In this episode, Dr. Anna does a deep dive into the ways we can all feel vibrant, juicy, and delicious through menopause and beyond. She shares some gems from her fascinating new book, The Hormone Fix, and offers some practical sexual health tips and a FREE E-Book, just for the DreamTribe. Don’t miss this one! We all need to understand what our hormones are up to.

Takeaways:

● Sheri and Nancy booked individual sessions with Dr. Anna and loved every minute of what felt like a long-overdue chat with a great girlfriend (and super smart doctor). They are thrilled to share her expert wisdom with the DreamTribe.

● Menopause can feel like an emotional and physical gut punch. It can cause isolation, shame, and make us feel like we’ve sailed right past our prime. Dr. Anna reminds us there is an exciting and sexy story to be told about welcoming a new stage of life.

● Dr. Anna is personally invested in living out a quality life. She had early menopause at 38 and her own research and dedication to health helped her have a child at age 41.

● Sheri’s Pillar Work has been life-changing, but she’s still working on recovering from professional burnout, which sent her stress and sex hormones reeling.

● As a 9-hour-of-sleep-a-night gal, Nancy is working on creating a nighttime ritual that promotes more relaxation and hormonal support.

● When our stress hormones (cortisol) are out of balance, it impacts our sex hormones like estrogen and progesterone.

● Weight (and waist) gain is a symptom of menopause but can be prevented and reversed.

● Dr. Anna is a fan of intermittent fasting. She says a solid 12 to 15 hour fast has great benefits.

● Download Dr. Anna’s FREE E-book on hormones... her gift to the DreamTribe!

● Organic plants and greens are powerful medicine. As predominantly plant-based eaters, Sher and Nance look forward to chatting more with Dr. Anna about her Keto-Green Way outlined in The Hormone Fix.

● Listener Inbox: How do you handle friends you may have outgrown and who no longer elevate you?
