Perimenopause hit me like a train after 40…
The anxiety, exhaustion, brain fog, rage, sleep issues, weight changes, feeling completely disconnected from myself.
And honestly? Most women are still being given outdated advice that barely scratches the surface of what’s actually happening hormonally.
We’re told:
“Just exercise more”
“Eat less”
“It’s just stress”
“You’re getting older”
“Maybe you need antidepressants”
Meanwhile, progesterone drops dramatically, estrogen fluctuates wildly, testosterone slowly declines, cortisol rises, sleep suffers, insulin resistance increases, and your nervous system feels constantly overwhelmed.
These are not small changes.
They impact your entire body.
What actually helps?
*Regulating your nervous system
*Strength training to support muscle, bones & metabolism
*Prioritising protein and blood sugar balance
*Protecting sleep like your life depends on it!!!
*Daily movement instead of punishing workouts *Reducing stress and rewiring anxious thought
patterns
*Feeling heard, supported and educated instead of
dismissed
Follow along for more support! I see you and I’m here to help ❤️❤️❤️
