  • Ep. 170 - What A Medical Intuitive says about Menopause with Katie Beecher
    May 13 2025
    Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine. She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause. In this week’s episode, Dr. Lovely sits down with Katie Beecher—medical and emotional intuitive, licensed professional counselor, and author of Heal from Within—for a deeply personal and empowering conversation about healing, self-trust, and the intersection of intuition and women’s health. Katie shares how a near-death experience as a teen led her to embrace her psychic gifts and begin a lifelong journey of intuitive healing. Drawing from over 30 years of experience, she explains what it means to be a medical intuitive and how she uncovers the root causes of physical and emotional challenges. She also opens up about living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), the common overlap with neurodivergence and empathy, and why fibromyalgia is often a misdiagnosis for misunderstood women. From menopause as a spiritual awakening to the role of energetic boundaries in self-protection, Katie’s insights offer a refreshing lens on aging, healing, and the power of listening to your body’s wisdom. Her take on hormone therapy is bold, honest, and empowering—proclaiming, “You’ll pry my estrogen patch from my cold, dead hands!” In This Episode – The Intuition Edition: What a medical intuitive actually does—and how Katie channels health insights with no prior info How intuitive art can reveal emotional blocks and healing paths The surprising connection between hypermobility, empathy, and neurodivergence Why many women with EDS are misdiagnosed with fibromyalgia How menopause is not an ending—but a powerful rebirth Her unique take on dementia as a spiritual and energetic transition How to protect your energy and honor your intuition in a chaotic world Katie’s message is one of radical self-trust, fierce self-love, and owning your personal power—especially in midlife and beyond.

She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause. In this week’s episode, Dr. Lovely sits down with Dr. Shelly Latte-Naor — board-certified internist, integrative medicine physician, and menopause care specialist — for a deeply insightful conversation on supporting menopause for all women and in particular, in cancer survivors. With a background in mind-body medicine and a former leadership role at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Dr. Latte-Naor brings a wealth of expertise in treating treatment-induced menopause and its often-overlooked effects on women’s health post-cancer. Together, they explore how cancer treatments like chemotherapy and hormone blockers can trigger sudden and severe menopausal symptoms, often overlooked in survivorship care. Dr. Latte-Naor breaks down the complexities of hormone therapy in breast cancer patients, including safe uses of local estrogen and emerging research on systemic HRT. The Nitty-Gritty: The hidden toll of cancer treatments: How chemotherapy and hormone blockers can fast-track intense menopause—and why the symptoms are so often dismissed. The truth about hormone therapy in breast cancer survivors: what’s safe, what’s not, and why the conversation is evolving Non-hormonal solutions for hot flashes, night sweats, and sleep issues—including breakthrough medications and integrative approaches Why sleep disruptions are so common after cancer—and how improving sleep can transform recovery, cognition, and mood The emotional toll of “survivorship shock” and how to rebuild trust in your body after treatment Why self-advocacy is critical—and how to ask for the care you deserve You’ll hear about non-hormonal treatment options for: hot flashes, night sweats, and sleep issues, and how foundational good sleep is to healing and recovery. She also shares powerful insights into the emotional experience of “survivorship shock” and why trauma-informed therapy and self-advocacy are key. If you or someone you know is navigating menopause after cancer (or you're just looking for more ways to support a loved one), this episode is a must-listen. It’s a rallying cry for women to demand better care, advocate for themselves, and reframe survivorship as an ongoing journey—one that includes emotional healing, educated choices, and open, honest conversations.
