Episode 223: Dr. Amy Novatt and Marybeth Cale on Menopause, Midlife, and the Whole-Person Approach to Women's Health

OB-GYN Dr. Amy Novatt and wellness coach Marybeth Cale on integrative approaches to perimenopause, menopause, hormone therapy, and midlife wellbeing.

Show notes

Norm welcomes Dr. Amy Novatt, OB-GYN, and Marybeth Cale, a national board certified health and wellness coach, to discuss integrative approaches to midlife health, with a focus on perimenopause and menopause. They explore how coaching complements conventional medicine by addressing whole-person wellbeing across life domains, using tools like a "wellness wheel" to support self-discovery and actionable next steps. Novatt explains why clinicians are increasingly open to nutrition, acupuncture, and lifestyle medicine, and clarifies key points and cautions around hormone therapy, including how interpretations of the 2002 Women's Health Initiative have evolved.
