When Your Hormone Levels May Be Impacting Your Marriage
Today we’re talking about menopause. Sure, it’s a natural biological process and eventually, every woman goes through it. But the experience is unique for each, and how hormone levels impact your marriage might just accelerate you on the road toward divorce. Alison Bladh is a registered nutritional therapist and esthetician living in the wilds of Sweden. She’s worked in the health and wellness industry for over 30 years specializing in menopausal women’s health and she now runs her own online clinic helping women worldwide manage the negative symptoms of menopause. She’s here to talk with Seth and Pete about how the menopause and hormones can affect relationships as well as things to pay attention to in order to help manage the negative symptoms.
Plus, we answer some listener questions!
