I'm thrilled to bring you this new episode!
I get to interview Marie-Josée Bourassa, the founder of the Méno-Joie clinic here in Montreal.
As you may already know, finding a good (let alone great 🙌) healthcare practitioner during the menopause transition can be tough.
➡️ I'm talking about someone who...
- will take the time to truly listen and take you seriously
- is educated and specialized in this crazy but natural transition
- offers you real solutions, choices and options when it comes to symptom relief
I've mentioned this Montreal clinic before and it truly embodies all these aspects.
And today, I get to ask Marie-Josée all about it, and also discuss other important topics like:
10:26 - Menopause healthcare in Quebec, including the petition to have the province cover the cost of bio-identical HRT
14:42 - When choosing HRT: Bio-identical (or body identical) hormones versus synthetic
20:18 - What you can do BESIDES HRT to manage your symptoms
29:08 - What you NEED to know before meeting with your healthcare provider, to get the relief you want
I know you'll get a lot of great nuggets from the episode, whether you live here in Montreal, or abroad. Enjoy!
