Note sull'episodio
In this episode I am talking about riding the hormonal wave in your 40s, drawing on real conversations from the Women in Wellness event, including my own recent dip in gym motivation and why having a clear plan, structure and tracking is what keeps you progressing even when you do not feel like it.
I unpack how negative self-talk and comparison drive self-sabotage, why we need to rewrite the rule book around menstrual cycle expectations in perimenopause, and how building resilience starts with small actions that create evidence you can trust yourself.
I also answer two audience questions on balancing cardio and strength for fat loss, and what to actually do when you wake up in perimenopausal rage with only 30 minutes to spare before the day begins.
If this resonated, please do subscribe so you never miss an episode and share it with a woman in your life who needs to hear this.
