Lorraine Miano, NABBW’s Holistic Menopause Health Associate, is an Integrative Certified Health Coach certified in hormone health 
and author of the book, “The Magic of Menopause: A Holistic Guide to Get Your Happy Back!” She is passionate about working with women in all phases of menopause – peri menopause through post menopause – with the clear goal of helping us overcome weight, metabolism and aging concerns, so we can have more energy, less stress, and feel comfortable in our own skin.
Lorraine’s goal is to help Western women understand that menopause can – and should – be viewed as the time we women come into our own, finally becoming the influential and powerful beings we were meant to be. She reminds us that in non-Western cultures — from Japanese to Greek, Native American, Indian, Chinese, Korean and African societies, elder women are held in high esteem – and appropriately venerated for their wisdom. You can learn more about Lorraine and her positive approach to aging on her website: TheMagicofMenopause.com
Lorraine’s favorite mantra is “Menopause is NOT an ending. It IS a new beginning.” If you are a woman searching for support, resources, and a whole lotta love, please join Lorraine’s private menopause support group: Making Menopause Magical.

It was totally unexpected and left me wondering how and why did this happen? As a health and menopause coach, I felt I was doing all the right things by exercising regularly, eating a healthy diet, limiting alcohol and caffeine, and taking my supplements. I knew I might be at higher risk since I am post-menopausal, small-boned, and chose not to use hormone replacement therapy due to personal reasons. However, I felt I was doing well, especially since my fi…

It is the burst of energy that some women feel after menopause… both physical and psychological. It is almost like a wake-up call. A woman may ask herself, “Where do I go from here? What fun lies ahead for me? What am I going to do with the rest of my life?” For many of us, our post-menopause could be at least a third and up to half of our lifetime. …

If you have a health concern, please contact your healthcare provider. "Oh, I’m past that." When a woman asks me what I do, and this is her response. The thing is, as a post-menopausal woman, you are far from “past that.” Let me explain. As a certified health and hormone coach specializing in menopause, I hear from women in all stages of this natural phase of our reproductive years.
