In this video, Susan Winograd PT, founder and owner of Pelvicore Rehab and Wellness, and Rebecca Kastin, a Health and Wellness Coach who has transformed hundreds of women through her Radiant Wellness Coaching program, discuss how to sustainably lose weight during and after menopause. This discussion is a follow-up to Pelvicore’s Ask the Experts March event with Rebecca. Susan and Rebecca dive deeper into diet, menopause, and hormone harmony.
Video Key Takeaways
1. The crucial link between pelvic floor health and nutrition—why your deep core system and digestive health are the foundation for thriving in midlife.
2. How issues like constipation, hormonal imbalances, or a tight pelvic floor can impact your nutrition and overall wellness.
3. The importance of proactive pelvic health to prevent issues like leaking, pelvic organ prolapse, or pain.
4. Rebecca’s powerful perspective: Hormones aren’t the enemy—they’re messengers! Learn how to listen to your body’s signals (mood swings, hot flashes, fatigue) and respond with intention.
5. Practical tips to combat brain fog, fatigue, and menopausal symptoms through diet, stress management, and nervous system regulation.
6. The Hormone Harmony Blueprint pillars: Nourish, Energize, Thrive—including why protein is queen (aim for 100-130g daily!) and simple ways to balance blood sugar.
7. Rebecca’s top supplement picks: magnesium glycinate and omega-3s for calming inflammation and boosting brain health (plus a bonus love for dark chocolate ).
8. Mindset shifts: Move from restriction to intuitive, intentional nourishment, and embrace joy, play, and boundaries for hormone health.
9. Rebecca’s empowering message: “You’re not broken—you’re becoming!”
