Midlife, Menopause & Mindset: How Essential Oils Can Support Your Well-Being with Kim Benoy
🌿 What if something as simple as a scent could ease perimenopause symptoms, boost your confidence, and even strengthen connections with other women in midlife?
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Kim Benoy—retired RN, Certified Aromatherapist, and host of the Midlife with Courage Podcast. Kim’s mission is to help women over 40 recognize their beauty, value, and worth. We dive into how essential oils can support you through perimenopause symptoms, how they can be used to uplift and connect with other women in midlife, and why recognizing your own value as you age is more important than ever. Kim shares how plant-based oils can be a powerful tool for both physical and emotional well-being as we navigate the changes of midlife.
Take a deep breath, settle in, and let’s explore the power of essential oils and the strength of midlife women!
