Heated: The Mind -Body Connection Through Menopause
Menopause is rarely treated as the whole mind & body transition it actually is. Mood shifts, brain fog, appetite changes, and inflammation all show up together, yet clinicians and dietitians are often working from separate playbooks. This session brings a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist with a Registered Dietitian to map the overlap between hormonal shifts, mental health symptoms, and nutrition, with a specific focus on the barriers Black women face in getting this transition taken seriously by providers.
