You’re doing everything “right” - eating well, exercising, taking the supplements, maybe even starting HRT - so why do you still feel exhausted, foggy, and stuck in a body that isn’t cooperating?

If perimenopause has left you frustrated and wondering why nothing is working, chances are you’re making one of these three common mistakes.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Most women are given generic, one-size-fits-all advice when it comes to perimenopause. But here’s the truth - what worked in your 30s won’t work now. In this episode, I break down the biggest mistakes women make when trying to fix their perimenopause symptoms and what actually works instead.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

✔ Why HRT isn’t a magic fix: and how starting it at the wrong time can make symptoms worse, not better
✔ The real reason you still feel awful: and the overlooked health factors (beyond estrogen) that could be driving your symptoms
✔ Why DIY-ing your way through perimenopause is keeping you stuck: and how to finally get clarity on what your body actually needs

If you’ve been spinning your wheels, trying everything but still feeling awful, this episode will give you the clarity you need to move forward with confidence.

SNEAK PEEK:

“Trying to ‘balance your hormones’ in perimenopause is like chasing the end of a rainbow - it’s just not going to happen. Instead of focusing on balance, we need to focus on helping your body adapt to these changes.”

If you’re tired of wasting time, money, and energy on things that don’t work, this episode will help you cut through the noise and focus on what actually makes a difference for your body in perimenopause.
