If perimenopause feels confusing, unpredictable, or overwhelming, you’re not imagining it.
Much like puberty, the transition into menopause is a time of profound hormonal change. Many people describe perimenopause as “reverse puberty”: a period marked by fluctuating hormones, shifting cycles, changing energy, mood swings, sleep disturbances, and unfamiliar symptoms that can feel chaotic and hard to make sense of.
In this class, Becky Sue Neilson offers a clear, compassionate look at what’s actually happening in the body during perimenopause. Through a functional medicine lens, we’ll explore the hormonal transitions behind common symptoms and why this phase can look so different from person to person.
You’ll learn:
- What perimenopause is and how it differs from menopause
- The hormonal changes driving common physical, emotional, and cognitive symptoms
- Why this transition can feel unpredictable and intense
- Practical, actionable steps to support your body through this phase
Rather than framing perimenopause as something to “push through,” this class invites understanding, self-compassion, and informed support. Whether you’re just beginning to notice changes or already deep in the transition, this session offers clarity, validation, and tools to help you navigate the journey with greater ease and confidence.
