Send us a text

Why does weight feel harder to manage during menopause—and where did all your muscle go? In this episode, we’re unpacking one of the most frustrating (and misunderstood) parts of midlife: how hormonal shifts affect your metabolism, fat storage, and strength. Spoiler: it’s not just about eating less or doing more cardio.

You’ll learn:

• What really changes in your body during menopause
• Why muscle is your metabolism’s best friend
• The truth behind “inevitable” weight gain
• How insulin resistance impacts energy, cravings, and belly fat
• What actually works: protein, strength training, and smarter habits—not perfection

We’ll bust the biggest myths and give you simple, doable next steps to reclaim your strength and feel more like you again.

💪 Challenge of the week: Try one strength workout and hit your protein goal—then let us know how it goes!
