EP 38. Fighting For Life with Psychologist Cristina Romero.
Good morning!!Today I bring you, probably, the most personal episode of my podcast that I've shared with you since I launched this podcast almost a year ago.Thanks to my friend and also psychologist, Cristina Romero, we tackle tremendously important topics that are often not very visible or taught in our society, such as:
The need to set boundaries in our relationships and how the key to knowing how to set and maintain these boundaries lies in our self-esteem (love for who we are as complete individuals).
How to know if we are in a healthy personal relationship (of any kind: intimate, friendship, family) or if, on the contrary, we need to start thinking that we are in a toxic relationship.
Suicide. Everything that is not seen, how it can be more present than you think in your day-to-day life, how to relate to a person with a history of suicide so that they feel safe with us and at the same time we help them fight for their life.
We talk about this and much more with Cris, I hope you fall in love with it as much as I did.

EP 5. Your Peri-Menopause Doubts Solved
On today's podcast, I'm answering the most frequently asked questions from the Q&A box I posted on my Instagram @isabelvina.The goal of the podcast is for you to understand that transitioning to a stage of hormonal maturity like menopause doesn't have to mean accepting that "you're not who you used to be, and this is just how it is, you're old" AT ALL.There are changes during the peri- and post-menopause stages. But if you understand these changes, they bring many good things, and the not-so-good aspects can be improved. You know what I always say: EVERY STONE BUILDS A WALL.Among the questions I answer are:How many years before menopause can I be in perimenopause?Is it normal to go 3 months without a period in perimenopause? Can my period return?Can I predict when menopause will come, and with what tests?If I supplement now and prevent, will I have a better menopause?How to address weight gain in menopause, any supplements?Why does libido decrease?Anything to help sleep well during the perimenopause stage?Menopause and increases in cholesterol, glucose, and blood pressure: why do they occur?I hope you enjoy it, remember to subscribe and rate my work on the podcast so I can reach more people!For any extra questions, check out my Instagram @isabelvina where I have many more resolved questions about hormones and metabolism!
