WORK WITH ME
ONE-TO-ONE COACHING WITH A LICENSED PHARMACIST
Pharmacist-Led Menopause Care That Bridges Medical Science and Holistic Wellness
One to One Coaching with a Licensed Pharmacist
I'm Victoria Byrd, Your Pharmacist Partner in Midlife Health
For over 20 years, I've been a licensed pharmacist, understanding medications, hormone therapy, and how prescriptions actually work in women's bodies.
Now, I combine that clinical expertise with integrative wellness coaching to give you something most women never get: a practitioner who understands BOTH the medical side AND the lifestyle side of menopause.
When you work with me, you're not choosing between pharmaceutical care and natural approaches you're getting both, seamlessly integrated.
Why work with a Pharmacist?
The Pharmacist Advantage
Most health coaches can't read your labs. Most pharmacists don't have time for comprehensive lifestyle coaching. I do both.
Here's what my 20+ years in pharmacy brings to your menopause journey:
Deep Medication Knowledge I understand how every medication you take interacts with your hormones, your supplements, and each other. I can spot issues your doctor might miss and help you have more informed conversations with your prescriber.
Hormone Therapy Expertise I don't just tell you to "talk to your doctor about HRT." I help you understand which types exist, what the research actually says, how to evaluate if it's right for you, and how to coordinate with your pharmacy for optimal results.
Prescription-Supplement Integration I can identify dangerous interactions, unnecessary duplications, and opportunities for optimization that most practitioners never catch because they only see part of the picture.
I Speak Both Languages I can translate what your doctor says into plain English, and I can help you communicate your symptoms to your medical team in ways that get you heard and taken seriously.
The bottom line: You get a licensed pharmacist with advanced training in women's integrative health who has the time and expertise to truly partner with you, something most women never experience.
Expert Support on Your Schedule
Flexible Care from a Licensed Pharmacist
No long-term commitments. No wasted time. Just expert pharmaceutical and integrative guidance when you need it most.
-
Your Initial Consultation | $299 *HSA/FSA Eligible
This 50-minute pharmacist led deep-dive is your personalized starting point.
In our first session, I bring my 20+ years of pharmacy experience to:
Review your complete medication profile: I'll look at every prescription, over-the-counter medication, and supplement you take to identify interactions, optimize timing, and eliminate unnecessary duplications
Analyze your health history with a clinical lens: symptoms, nutrition, lifestyle, labs, and goals to uncover what's really happening beneath the surface
Create your Midlife Mastery Roadmap: a customized, pharmacist-informed plan with a functional medicine approach to your health
Evaluate current medications and supplements: with the expertise of someone who's spent two decades understanding how these work in women's bodies
Identify beneficial lab testing: I'll recommend which tests may provide valuable insights to discuss with your provider (at-home or lab saliva & blood spot tests available)
Coordinate menopause hormone therapy: I work directly with your prescribing provider and pharmacy to ensure you get the right formulation, dose, and delivery method
Once you've completed your initial consultation, you're officially a client for life. That means no repeating the intake process or paying that fee again. Just ongoing access to pharmacist-led, individualized support whenever you need it.
-
Follow-Up Sessions | $125 *HSA/FSA eligible
Your health and life ebb and flow, your care should too.
Book 30 minute follow-ups as needed (based on your needs or my recommendations) to:

Review new labs or symptoms through a clinical and holistic lens. Discuss possible new labs to order
Optimize your prescriptions when things change or new medications are added
Coordinate with your healthcare team for seamless communication about your hormone therapy or other treatments

Women Mastering Midlife: The Difference: Coaching + Clinical Insight
What makes Women Mastering Midlife different is the rare combination of licensed pharmacist expertise with comprehensive integrative health coaching.
As a pharmacist with over 20 years licensed AND advanced certification in women's integrative health, I don't just help you build healthy habits, I help you understand how those habits intersect with your medications, labs, hormones, and treatment options.
This means you're not navigating midlife health in silos or piecing together advice from practitioners who only see part of your picture.

Trusted Expertise: Licensed Pharmacist + Certified Women's Health Coach
20+ Years in Pharmacy | Certified Women's Health Coach | Member, The Menopause Society | Member, International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health
When you work with a licensed pharmacist who specializes in menopause, you get someone who understands the clinical science AND the practical reality of how hormones, medications, and lifestyle work together in your body.
I will guide you through my 5 Pillars of Menopausal Health:
-
We talk about dietary theories that not only have research backed data to improve midlife women’s health, but we share recipes that MAKE SENSE with our budgets, families, and time. You are invited to decide how you want to approach nutrition on YOUR terms. Do you want to track macro nutrients and food? Do you want to learn about portions and how to eat intuitively? Do you want to change your body composition and increase muscle mass? These are some of the questions you can ask yourself and listen to your inner voice to decide. No one here will tell you the BEST way to eat. You know your BEST way.
-
We will talk about stress, overwhelm and burnout. We will talk about different methods to mitigate stress in your life. There is no such thing as a stress-free life, but we can work on finding the methods that best suit your life to mitigate that stress.
-
Let’s face it. Women don’t sleep in midlife. And when we worry about how little sleep we get…yup- MORE STRESS! In our community, you will find resources to develop better sleep habits. We also get into the importance of not just sleep, but REST. Putting down the to-do list and focus on resting your body AND mind is just as important as sleep.
-
We will talk about the importance of strength training, stability and flexibility so that we remain mobile well into our later years. Functional exercises to keep your bones strong, muscles from wasting away, and you carrying all your groceries into the house by yourself. We will create habits to keep you chasing grandkids, traveling the world, and doing the work you love.
-
There are many components to a midlife woman’s life. Our parents are aging, our children are growing up and leaving the house, we may find relationships dissolving or searching for new ones. In an ever connected world, we are more lonely than ever. Building the community to connect with each other will bring us together during a transition that often has you feeling you are left to figure it out alone. Finding passions, having FUN, career pivots…nothing is off the table of discussion.
With this wealth of resources, you will have ways to reduce the stubborn belly fat, experience restorative sleep, stress mitigation, better focus, nutrition, and relief of menopause symptoms. More importantly, you'll create a toolkit of methods to improve your health span, not just lifespan. You will have your unique longevity plan.

The cost is based on the coaching package you choose. If the 3 or 6 month package is not within your budget and a 1 time session wouldn’t be enough to address your health issues, we can discuss other payment options.
If you do choose a 3 or 6 month package and you are not satisfied, you can cancel coaching at any time. The next month would not be billed to you and if you paid up front, we can prorate a refund. I want you to feel the value of our work together!
Costs of lab work and supplements are not included in the above pricing and will vary.

We meet via a Zoom link at a time that is convenient for you. We may also meet in a phone conversation if that is more convenient for you.

I am not a provider that can treat medical conditions. I offer support, accountability and resources to clients in the holistic and prescriptive aspect of women’s midlife health (perimenopause and menopause). I collaborate with physicians to offer suggestions in prescriptive care, but I do not diagnose and treat women.
-
While hormone testing is not required by The Menopause Society guidelines to offer treatment for menopause and perimenopause symptoms, there may be a time when hormone testing is necessary. In collaboration with your care provider, I can suggest hormone testing and in some cases, we can order tests through Fullscript.
