In Conversation with Dr Stacy Sims
This is the episode that we hope might go some way to helping you change your life. If you’re a regular listener of Emsolation, you’ll know Em is deep in the throes of perimenopause and judging by the flood of DM’s and comments she gets whenever she mentions it, she is definitely not alone. There’s a thirst for knowledge which is why Em has decided to get an expert in, her name is Dr Stacy Sims, she’s an international exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist with an MSc and PhD, who is on a mission to help us better understand the nuances of the female body, so you can build strength and longevity, she’s also in perimenopause. Inspired by the appalling lack of research done specifically on women in regards to exercise, nutrition, and medicine, Dr Stacy wrote the books ‘ROAR’ and ‘Next Level’ and created her TEDx talk ‘Women Are Not Small Men’. Dr Stacy specialises in how our bodies needs change over our lifetime, and how exercise, nutrition and medicine can help us deal with the impacts of perimenopause and menopause. This is the episode that has the power to change your life and give you the tools to improve your mental and physical health now, so grab a pen and get listening. Then in our Sealed Section, on our premium service Emsolation Extra, Em sits down and answers the 10 most burning questions you have about her health and fitness transformation over the last year.
