Standing Up to Menopause —On Stage!
Hey there! I’m Gabriele Sewtz, your stand-up comedian who’s turned menopause into a superpower fueled by punchlines. My mission? To normalize the (peri)menopause conversation, empower other women, and remind everyone that we’re not crazy—we’re just running low on estrogen and high levels of “I’ve had it.” Guys, I can probably help explain where your loved one’s latest death stare came from.
In a world where women’s health gets the attention it deserves (shocking idea, I know), research would actually cover HRT risks, real alternatives, and the groundbreaking discovery that nutrition and lifestyle aren’t just for Instagram influencers. That’s why I’m putting (peri)menopause in the spotlight—on stage, with a mic, and no filter. So buckle up and get ready for a ride through all the different decades of my life to learn my menopause superhero origin story.

Eat Right? or Left?
I’m the salad girl—dressing on the side, never dieted a day in my life. In my hometown, seafood reigned supreme, pickled anything goes, and my only vice is German bread (but even that’s whole grain). Despite my healthy lifestyle, my body had other plans during (peri)menopause: Belly Fat and other not-so-fun menopause symptoms like high cholesterol, fatigue, and you should have seen my lackluster hair. Now I am a menopause foodie!
Hormones are stacked like pancakes. And I am no doctor or scientist, just an ordinary woman, but if you take a bite out of a pancake stack, it crumbles the same way your stacked hormones collapse into a hot, syrupy mess when estrogen and progesterone are gone. I had my “Wait, what?!” moment working with a hormone consultant—managing menopause isn’t about doubling down on cardio; it’s about dialing down stress and inflammation, to shift your hormone pancakes back into a large, yummy pile of sweetness, called life.
Cracking the Code on Menopause
You grow up hearing about menopause like it’s a grand event with a date on the calendar—turn 50 and there’s a ribbon cutting. What they don’t mention is perimenopause gets to work for a decade before introducing itself! When things started changing, I kept thinking “I’m not even 50 yet! This can’t be THE change.”
So what did I do? I jumped into action to figure out how I could navigate this menopause thing—and how I could share what I’m learning with everyone else.
You Gotta Work It Out... Literally!
What did this girl do? I ran. A lot. 70 runs, to be exact—despite not being a runner. And guess what? The more I ran, the more weight I gained. So I signed up for a wellness retreat, and was the lamest duck trying to keep up with a kettlebell workout—that’s where I realized weights are the secret weapon against weight!
Life Should Be Sweet.
I can’t stop talking about it. Really!
