Why Understanding Your Hormones Changes Everything in Perimenopause

Feeling like your body isn’t playing by the same rules anymore? You’re doing everything “right,” but the weight won’t budge, your energy is gone, and your mood is all over the place?

Your Body Isn’t the Problem, Your Strategy Is

For decades, women have been told to eat less, exercise more, and just "push through" perimenopause. But that advice wasn’t designed for a body whose hormones are shifting. If your body isn’t responding the way it used to, it’s not failing you - it needs a different approach.

Your body isn’t broken. It just has different needs now.

If you don’t understand your hormones, and especially how they're changing, you’re going to keep wasting time, energy, and money on things that don’t work.

But when you know what’s actually happening under the hood, everything changes!

In this episode, I’ll show you why understanding your hormones is the missing piece, and how it changes everything for your weight, energy, and overall health.

You’ll Learn:

• Why perimenopause isn’t a problem to fix, but a transition your body is going through.
• The reason your old health strategies aren’t working anymore, and what actually does.
• How understanding your hormones gives you back control, so you stop feeling stuck and start feeling good again.

Sneak Peek:

"Perimenopause isn’t the phase of hormone balance, it’s the phase of hormone change. And that’s why those old tricks, like cutting calories and doing more cardio, don’t just stop working, they actually backfire."
