Sex, Drugs, & Menopause
A few weeks ago, I had the incredible experience of joining some of the most renowned female doctors and healthcare professionals at a (peri)menopause symposium hosted by The Swell. As a menopause health coach and exercise physiologist, I was thrilled to be surrounded by women who are not just talking about menopause—they’re transforming the conversation! What was once a taboo topic is now being discussed with the empowerment, education, and scientific backing that it deserves. These trailblazing doctors are leading the charge in policy-making and advocating for women's health and wellness during (peri)menopause.
Follaine Health was born in March 2023, out of a deep desire to help women get the care and answers that were so often missing from their gynecologists and primary doctors. My own journey through (peri)menopause happened during the uncertainty of COVID-19 and the lockdown. My anxiety was through the roof, and the mix of menopausal symptoms created what I like to call "the perfect storm." As someone who lives and breathes exercise and wellness, I couldn’t comprehend what was happening to my body—and even more so, my mind.
In my search for answers, I reached out to my friend Brenda, who was already diving deep into courses on menopause and hormones. With her expertise, she quickly recognized that my symptoms were hormonal. Brenda prescribed a treatment, and within days, I felt a world of difference. The stubborn belly weight began to melt away, my sleep improved, and my anxiety faded. This experience made me realize that if I was struggling to find answers, there were countless other women out there feeling just as lost. That’s when we knew we had to create Follaine Health—to help other women who were on that same struggle bus.
Today, Follaine Health is a telehealth company dedicated to working with women one-on-one in their health journey. We’re licensed in NY, and CT, and are in the exciting process of developing an online education program, complete with options for group health coaching and personalized one-on-one coaching. Stay tuned—we’re launching very soon!
