There’s no shortage of “hormone-balancing” supplements aimed at midlife women, but which ones actually help? In this episode, I break down what’s worth it, what’s often overhyped, and how to choose supplements that truly support your body in perimenopause.
Creatine and collagen are two of the most talked-about supplements in perimenopause and menopause. In this episode, I cut through the hype and share what actually supports energy, brain health, joints, and healthy ageing, without supplement overwhelm.
Progesterone is often the first hormone to shift in perimenopause, and for many women, it explains anxiety, sleep changes, heavier periods, and feeling less resilient to stress. In this episode, Francesca gently explains what progesterone really does, why it starts to decline, and how to support ovulation and progesterone naturally during perimenopause, without fear, restriction, or overwhelm.
Perimenopause can feel confusing and destabilising. In this episode, Francesca shares what really matters for feeling better, and how the Midlife Thrive membership supports women through this transition.
Perimenopause symptoms don’t exist in a vacuum. In this episode, Francesca explores why stress, including the hidden stress of living out of alignment, can dramatically worsen perimenopause symptoms. Rather than seeing this phase as something going “wrong,” she reframes perimenopause as a powerful magnifying glass, revealing where the nervous system is overwhelmed, boundaries are missing, and life needs recalibration. This is an honest, grounding conversation about why pushing harder backfires in midlife, and how listening more deeply can change everything.
Perimenopause isn’t something to endure or push through. It’s a phase that invites listening, learning, and informed action. When you respond to symptoms early, you don’t just feel better now, you change how menopause unfolds later.

In this episode, we explore what actually happens to oestrogen once your body has finished using it, and how your liver, gut, and lymphatic system all play a role in keeping your hormones balanced. Learn why oestrogen can be higher than ever in early perimenopause, how to support detoxification through food and lifestyle, and how to avoid endocrine disruptors that mimic hormones in the body.
Low oestrogen can affect everything from your mood and brain to your skin, libido, and joints. Learn the key signs, root causes, and how to support your hormones so you can feel like yourself again.
Heard about DIM for hormone balance? In this episode, Francesca explains what DIM and sulforaphane actually do, why DIM isn’t always a good idea in perimenopause, and how to safely support oestrogen detox and balance through food.
Most women in perimenopause are unknowingly under-fuelling, eating too little protein and not enough calories in an effort to “be good.” In this episode, nutritional therapist Francesca Liparoti explains why under-eating during perimenopause can disrupt hormones and energy, and how focusing on balanced nutrition can help you feel calm, strong, and energised again.
Your gut and hormones are in constant communication — and during perimenopause, that connection becomes even more important. In this episode, Francesca explores how changes to your gut microbiome affect oestrogen balance, inflammation, and mood, and shares simple nutrition and lifestyle tips to restore harmony from the inside out.
