Are you trying to fix your perimenopause symptoms with supplements and quick fixes, only to find yourself still struggling? What if the real solution lies deeper than you think?

In this episode, I sit down with Holly Blazina, a former flamenco guitarist turned gut health coach who discovered something remarkable while helping her clients. Holly shares her journey from suffering repetitive strain injuries as a musician to developing the Gutsy Type Method that combines Ayurveda, nervous system work, and embodied vision coaching. We dive deep into why most women approach perimenopause all wrong, the three doshas and how they relate to your unique body type, and why your gut health is the foundation of hormonal balance. Holly reveals the hidden emotional patterns that keep us stuck, shares her personal story about unconscious resistance to healing, and explains why you must start with your nervous system before addressing diet. We also explore the connection between emotional digestion and physical digestion, practical steps for getting started, and why feeling into your body can be scary but necessary.

Ready to discover a completely different approach to perimenopause that goes beyond band-aid solutions? This conversation will shift how you think about your symptoms and give you hope for real healing.

BEST MOMENTS:

"You cannot supplement or medicate your way to good health. You just can't do it."

"Every single one of those fears that we have, every single one of those parts of ourselves that we reject, there's gifts in there. And the reason why we're holding them in place and the reason why we bury them so deeply is because of their value."
