Rachel worked with chronic pain patients for over ten years. She understood first-hand how food, nutrients, and movement can help people rebalance and heal themselves.
After finding that her perimenopausal symptoms were disruptive to her life, Rachel did her homework, searching for helpful midlife resources, only to come up short. She also realized that women that looked like her were missing from the conversation altogether. She wondered if she could create a judgment-free space for midlife women to learn from one another and express themselves with compassion.
Rachel put one foot in front of the other and launched her blog and Instagram account @themenomemos, and began the conversation she was searching for. Her commitment to representation and dispensing encouragement, humor, and meaningful information about a host of midlife issues while creating a community that could share conversations, tools, tips, and resources about perimenopause and menopause was born.
In this episode, Nada sits down with Rachel to discuss how she built her social media presence and why she decided to use Instagram as her platform. She shares how she realized her friends were naturally turning to her for answers to health-related questions and why that prompted her to collaborate with the Perry community to host Perry Talks.

What is LIBERTY ROAD with Nada Jones ?
Pursuing your future doesn’t end at 40, in fact, it may mark the beginning of knowing who you are, what you’re capable of and what you really want. But knowing what’s next and how to get there can be a challenge—especially when old narratives play on repeat. I’ve come to believe that the best way to understand your possibilities is in hearing from others—what they have done and how they have done it.
LIBERTY ROAD is here to share stories so that you can consider your possibilities, pursue your purpose and move into your future with intention.
