The Founder

Hi, I’m Dr. Fiona Lovely

Menopause educator, speaker, writer, senior clinician and host of the Not Your Mother’s Menopause podcast.

I have heard the stories of women over and over again: we are gaslit, dismissed, and often left to navigate midlife alone. After walking with the women of my community for many years, guiding, advocating and educating, I built what has been missing: a training for women to assist other women through perimenopause and menopause. It’s called the Menopause Doula Certification and the Menopause Doula Council is where that work lives.

I bring more than 20 years of clinical practice, where my focus has been women’s musculoskeletal health, functional medicine, functional neurology and restorative endocrinology. I launched the Not Your Mother’s Menopause podcast in 2016, and it’s received accolades from around the world and had millions of downloads. In 2020, I began teaching the material that would become the Menopause Doula Certification. You can learn more about my clinical work at drlovely.com.
