A note from your teacher
Amy Gueye
I've spent years working at the intersection of conventional medicine and integrative health, and if there's one area where I've seen women consistently underserved, it's menopause. The symptoms are dismissed. The options are oversimplified. The research is misquoted. And the result is millions of women suffering through a transition that, with the right knowledge and support, can actually become one of the most empowering chapters of their lives.
I created this course because I wanted to build the resource I wish had existed when I started — one that doesn't force you to choose between conventional medicine and functional approaches, but instead integrates the best of both. Every module reflects real clinical experience, current evidence, and a deep respect for the complexity of women's hormonal health. Whether you're a practitioner building a menopause specialty or a woman navigating this journey yourself, I'm honored to be your guide through it.
