Motivation to Blog!
I was motivated to start a blog because I struggled with navigating perimenopause and menopause. Despite being a natural phase in every woman's life, I was woefully unprepared and lacked essential information. While I acknowledged my part in not seeking out knowledge sooner, I was also disheartened by the inadequate guidance from my doctor and the general silence on the topic. It often felt like my concerns were dismissed as "all in my head," making it easier for others to avoid the conversation. This lack of discourse and support around menopause is a disservice to all women, and it drove me to create a platform where we can openly discuss and share valuable insights, experiences, and advice.
"So, let's talk about it."
"I can support you on your journey with my experience and knowledge, and the best part is that I have your best interest at heart. Knowledge is a powerful tool and can be a great ally when dealing with perimenopause and menopause. I will provide the information, skills, and knowledge I have gained through my journey. Subscribe to my blogs today, and let's start the conversation."

"Harmonizing Hues: Exploring the Healing Power of Light Therapy"
Light is a critical factor in promoting overall health and well-being. The circadian rhythms of the body, which regulate sleep-wake cycles, hormone secretion, body temperature, and other physiological processes, are highly influenced by exposure to light. Natural daylight during the day and darkness at night can help synchronize our circadian rhythms and promote optimal sleep quality, energy levels, and overall health.
"Navigating Skin Cancer: My Journey with Mohs Treatment"
Mohs surgery is a procedure for removing skin cancer, using precise "map-like" surgical techniques to remove and eliminate all traces of cancer. The Mohs surgeon first examines the tumor under a microscope. Then, they carefully remove a thin layer of skin from the skin cancer area. Next, the removed tissue is examined under the microscope to determine if any cancerous cells remain. If they do, the process is repeated, and another layer is removed. This process is repeated until no cancer cells remain.
