Changing Seasons: Ayurveda, Women’s Health, Menopause & Food as Medicine

by Jody Vassallo

A podcast exploring women’s health through the wisdom of Ayurveda and Chinese medicine, with empowering conversations on menopause, natural healing, and food as medicine to support every stage of life.  Hosted by Jody Vassallo, Ayurvedic guide, intuitive cook, and founder of ‘Gather’.  Each episode is an invitation to slow down, listen in, and reconnect with the wisdom of your body and the cycles of nature. Through the lens of traditional medicine and lived experience, we dive into the big topics: perimenopause, menopause, fertility, gut health, grief and loss, surrogacy, Ayurveda, and food as medicine. This is a space for real conversations, tender truths, and practical ways to nourish yourself no matter what season you're in.
