Episode Description
Our Morphus research shows that 66% of perimenopausal and menopausal women feel more stressed and less able to cope with daily pressures than they did before entering this stage of life.
In this episode, Andrea Donsky, nutritionist, published menopause researcher, menopause educator, author, and co-founder of wearemorphus.com sits down with mentor Lisa Borden. Lisa is a business development consultant and founder of Borden Communications + Design Inc. She’s also an author, speaker, and creator of The Wellness Intelligence Collective.
They discuss how to reframe our lives by ditching rigid rules and finding curiosity-driven solutions for purpose, connection, and kindness.
