About this episode

In this episode of This Daring Adventure podcast, I speak with Dr. Bruna Galobardes, a life coach specializing in menopause weight loss.

We discuss Bruna's transition from health research to coaching, the unique challenges women face with weight during menopause, and her successful approach to addressing these issues.

Topics include the effects of aging and hormonal changes on weight, the limited impact of exercise and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on weight loss, and practical strategies for managing food cravings and behaviors.

Bruna also shares her own experience of giving up alcohol and offers insights on how to develop a healthy relationship with food.

Tune in for valuable insights and empowering advice for women navigating menopause and weight management.

33:30 Final Thoughts and How to Connect with Bruna

Bruna is a former doctor and health scientist turned life and health coach with a mission to help women during menopause lose weight for good. Despite her extensive medical and scientific knowledge, she found herself struggling with menopausal weight gain—until she realized that simply changing what we eat is only a small part of the solution.

We decide what to eat and why we eat with our brains. To achieve lasting results, we need to understand how the brain works, and work with it, not against it.

Bruna has developed a unique programme that tackles the real causes of overeating during menopause, combining her expertise in the biology of weight, the psychology of eating, and the science of habits.

“It’s not your fault,” and you haven’t “let yourself go.” The problem isn’t you—it’s the approach we’ve been given.

With Bruna, you’ll discover the fundamentals of weight, eating patterns, and habits so that you get your body, your health, and yourself back on track, ready to enjoy a fulfilled next half of your life.
