About Jeannie Beaudin…
I am a retired pharmacist who specialized in balancing women’s hormones for over 10 years while I owned my own pharmacy. Clients appreciated my broad knowledge of non-drug, natural and standard treatment options. I took the time to thoroughly review hormone-related symptoms, explain available choices and discuss a woman’s preferences for treatment. Women told me they appreciated receiving explanations for the symptoms they were experiencing. The detailed summary report I wrote afterward recorded the discussion for the client and was also used to communicate efficiently with her physician.
Several of my clients suggested I should write a book and, once I fully retired, I finally had the time to do it. “Can I Speak to the Hormone Lady? Managing Menopause and Hormone Imbalances”, published in February 2019, explains how hormone imbalances cause unpleasant symptoms and describes step-wise approaches that women can use to restore hormone balance and feel like themselves again. Its goal is to enable women understand what their symptoms can tell them, and to help them get involved in their choice of treatment. Writing has become a second career for this pharmacist! The book is now available on all major electronic book sites and on Amazon as a paperback. Here is the Universal Link:
I also started a health blog to practice my writing skills and reach out to my future audience… initially writing about women’s health issues and hormone imbalances. Over the months, with reader feedback, it gradually expanded to discuss a wider variety health issues, with an emphasis on disease prevention. You will find over 250 articles posted here! I hope you enjoy and benefit from the discussion, and please pass along any ideas you have for future blogs.

And now I’m an artist, working in watercolour, charcoal, pastel and graphite. My works have been accepted in two galleries: Shediac Art Gallery on Ohio Road in Shediac, and Le Hub on Main Street, also in Shediac. I have an “Art Priority List”, a special email group where I share my latest works and the stories behind them, if you love original art!
