You land in a new place, the pastries look incredible, and you want to say yes to every local bite. But if you’re in menopause or perimenopause, travel can also mean bloating, headaches, fatigue, brain fog, and that nagging feeling that your body is harder to read than it used to be. We’re not doing food rules or calorie counting here. We’re talking about how to enjoy vacation food and still feel good in your body.

I’m joined by functional health coach Michelle McCoy of Treasured Wellness, who shares a powerful story about being dismissed in conventional care and why women need to advocate for whole-person health: body, mind, and spirit. We dig into what it looks like to treat your body like a temple to treasure, especially in midlife, when symptoms are signals and “just live with it” is not an acceptable answer.

You’ll walk away with practical travel wellness tips you can use immediately: the Hydrate, Eliminate, Maintain framework (yes, elimination matters), how to anchor meals with protein and vegetables, and how to navigate gluten sensitivity and restaurant menus in any culture. We also talk about dessert without regret, including the simple “three bite rule,” plus how to recover after a trip with deep sleep, gentle movement, and a reset of your daily rhythms.

If you want more energy on the road and fewer vacation “hangovers,” listen now, then subscribe, share this with a friend who travels, and leave a review so more midlife women can find it.
