Talking with Stefanie Daniels; Student and supporter of women in perimenopause and menopause in conjunction with Intermittent fasting

Today I am talking with Stefanie Daniels. After her mum passed away from ovarian cancer in 2015, Stefanie had her second baby two months later and then decided to get tested for the BRCA gene. It was a positive result, and she underwent preventative surgery having a double mastectomy and removing her ovaries which sent her tail-spinning, head first into the menopause. Fast forward to March 2020, the beginning of lock-down. Stefanie was still miserably experiencing menopausal symptoms and it was starting to affect everyone around her. She magically stumbled upon Cynthia Thurlow's TED talk on Intermittent Fasting and how it helps with these symptoms and so, began her IF journey!

 

Key points addressed were  

• Stefanie’s personal story with integrating Intermittent Fasting through her intense menopausal journey induced by having her ovaries removed before she turned 40
• We also discussed Stefanie’s current endeavor in which she has left a 22 yr career in media to fully facilitate her biomedical education and further develop her expertise so that she can have a practice serving the menopausal women of her world
