Hormones, HRT & Feeling Like Yourself Again | Katelyn Liptak of KOR Aesthetics & Wellness

Hormones, HRT & Feeling Like Yourself Again | Katelyn Liptak of KOR Aesthetics & Wellness What happens when you know something feels different in your body, but you aren't sure where to begin? In this episode of the Plant Powered Collective Podcast , Lori sits down with Katelyn Liptak, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, founder of KOR Aesthetics & Wellness , for a candid conversation about women's health, hormones, menopause, HRT, wellness, aesthetics and learning to advocate for your own care. Lori first met Katelyn through her friend Beth, a previous podcast guest, and later heard Katelyn speak to a group of women having an open conversation about menopause and hormone replacement therapy. That conversation inspired this one. Katelyn shares her journey from working in a hospital to practicing at an established women's health center before taking the leap into entrepreneurship and opening KOR Aesthetics & Wellness. Today, she works with both women and men, with a particular focus on women's health, hormone replacement therapy, hormone pellets, peptides and aesthetics. They unpack some of the questions many women begin asking during perimenopause and menopause: Why don't I feel like myself? Could hormones be contributing to what I'm experiencing? What exactly is HRT? What are hormone pellets? What are peptides? And how do we sort through the enormous amount of information, and misinformation, surrounding midlife health? But this isn't only a conversation about clinical care. Katelyn is also a working mom and entrepreneur. She and Lori talk about what nourishment looks like in real life when you're caring for patients, raising a family and building a business. They explore food, family meals, self-care, boundaries, aging, confidence and the challenge of making room for yourself when so many other people need you. The conversation also explores the intersection of aesthetics and wellness . Caring about how you look doesn't have to mean fighting aging. It can be one part of a much larger conversation about confidence, health and feeling comfortable in the body you're living in. Most importantly, this episode is not about telling every woman she needs HRT, peptides, aesthetic treatments or any particular intervention. It's an invitation to pay attention to your body, ask better questions, understand your options and become an active participant in your own care. Because nourishment is about more than what's on your plate. It's also about what's happening around your plate, who is at your table and how you care for the woman sitting there.
