EP 2: Ayurveda and the Sacred Fire: Menopause as a Spiritual Passage with Heidi Veraa

EP 2: Ayurveda and the Sacred Fire: Menopause as a Spiritual Passage with Heidi Veraa

July 16, 2025

This week, I’m opening up a conversation that so many women need but rarely get—an honest, unfiltered talk about menopause.

I’m joined by Heidi Veraa, founder of Sundara Wellness on Australia’s Sunshine Coast. With over 25 years in holistic health, Heidi brings deep experience in Ayurveda, yoga, and healing therapies. She’s not just an expert—she’s lived it. After a decade of teaching about menopause, Heidi found herself right in the thick of it, facing all the confusion, discomfort, and profound transformation firsthand.

In this episode, we dig into:

  • The real, unspoken experiences of menopause—beyond the clichés and scary stories
  • How Ayurveda and holistic practices can help women understand and navigate this transition
  • Why so many women suffer in silence, and what we can do to change that
  • Reframing menopause as a chapter of power, surrender, and self-discovery
  • Heidi’s wisdom from both her professional practice and her personal journey, offering practical advice and hard-won perspective

If you’ve ever felt alone on this path—or wondered what’s truly possible on the other side—you’ll find both comfort and inspiration here.

Ready to break the silence? Hit play and join the conversation.
