20+ Years Translating Wellness Science into Practical Action
Hi, I'm Monica Stanton.
I teach women 40 and over how to age with strength, vitality, and confidence through lifestyle strategies and practical nutrition.
When My Health Started Falling Apart
At age 45, I felt my own health declining at an accelerated rate. I was getting weaker, had IBS, easily caught viruses, had worsening hives, rashes, and infections all over my body, and dry, itchy scalp and skin. I was depressed, and my doctor said that came with my condition.
I tried everything, but got mysteriously worse. Eventually I was dependent on 5 RX medications, some mind-altering, that doctors said I would need for the rest of my life. I felt like a prisoner.
I decided I was on the wrong track and pivoted to a natural approach for my health. It was a maze of guessing and trying this and that.
Then Came the News About My Daughter
Then my 12 year old daughter was given a devastating kidney disease prognosis: A lifetime of sickness and a series of kidney transplants from a disease with "no known cause and no known cure."
The doctors gave no hope. The medications she was given would slow down her disease for a while, but then eventually accelerate her kidneys' decline.
None of it made sense.
A 15-Year Search for Answers
I couldn't go on guessing like I had been for my own health. I drew upon my Biological Sciences degree and took a relentless deep dive for scientific answers. My research continued for 15 years. I wanted to know how my daughter developed this disease and what she needed to overcome it.
How We Built Her Health Back
I helped my daughter battle her medical prognosis, all with a focus on lifestyle changes and powerful nutrition. To support her, I applied what I learned to my own health.
What I learned in those years wasn't how to have all the answers.
It's how to ask better questions and make informed decisions in a world full of noise.
The Real Problem Isn't a Lack of Information
I discovered that women our age don't suffer from a lack of health information. We suffer from too much of it.
I spoke with many types of natural doctors, read articles and books. Today we have podcasts, experts, influencers, and now AI, all touting their perspectives on what we need to be healthy.
Some of that information is valuable.
A lot is oversimplified.
Many are based more on trends than evidence.
After a while, it stops feeling empowering and starts feeling exhausting.
You don't know who to trust. You don't know where to start. And the more you research, the less certain you feel.
Finally, My Turn
A sick child and a failed marriage consumed many of my years. With my daughter free of that disease, happily married and backpacking in the Rocky Mountains, I could finally pursue my own future at age 61.
To my pleasant surprise, I experienced first-hand how right choices daily can genuinely shape what's possible and help me create the future I dreamed of.
I'm off all Rx medications after needing them most of my life. I get compliments on my "amazing" skin and people think I'm 45. I'm really 65 and enjoying life on my ranch and on horseback. It's no surprise that when you're healthier on the inside, you look better on the outside.
