Description
Welcome to our online course designed specifically for women experiencing ADHD traits and hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause and menopause. Hi, we're Sarah and Faye, your guides on this journey towards better understanding and managing your symptoms.
As nutritionists with a passion for holistic health, we've noticed, in our clinical work, commonly shared symptoms among women going through menopause: the worsening of ADHD-like symptoms. The distraction, impulsivity, brain fog, forgetfulness, and emotional rollercoasters can feel overwhelming, but we're here to tell you that you're not alone, and there's so much we can do to support you.
We understand that navigating ADHD symptoms during menopause can present unique challenges. Hormonal fluctuations can exacerbate existing symptoms or introduce new ones, making it difficult to stay focused, regulate emotions, and maintain daily routines. The combination of ADHD traits and menopausal changes can lead to heightened feelings of overwhelm, frustration and fatigue, impacting various aspects of life, from work and relationships to self-care and overall wellbeing.
Drawing from our combined expertise and personal experiences, we've crafted a comprehensive toolkit encompassing nutrition, diet, and lifestyle strategies tailored to your needs. Our approach is firmly rooted in neuro-affirmation, celebrating the strengths of the neurodivergent brain while addressing the challenges it presents.
Throughout this course, we'll explore the many positives that come with having a neurodivergent brain, while also delving into evidence-based practices to alleviate troubling co-occurring conditions and symptoms. By empowering you with knowledge and practical tools, we aim to show you how diet and lifestyle adjustments can lead to positive outcomes and improved overall wellbeing.
So, whether you're navigating the uncharted waters of ADHD symptoms during menopause or seeking ways to optimise your health and vitality, join us on this transformative journey. Together, let's embrace the power of nutrition, harness the potential of our neurodivergent minds, and pave the way for a brighter, more balanced future. Welcome to a new chapter of empowerment and self-discovery.

- Women and females with ADHD experiencding hormonal fluctuations who want to learn about the role of diet and nutrition.
