Ever feel like your body is working against you—despite eating clean, staying active, and doing “all the right things”?
If your belly feels bloated by noon, your energy crashes mid-afternoon, and the scale refuses to budge… it’s not in your head. It’s your blood sugar talking—and in midlife, it's a whole different conversation.
In this episode, we’re unpacking what’s really going on in perimenopause and menopause when your hormones start to shift and your body doesn’t respond the way it used to.
You’ll learn why declining estrogen and progesterone levels mess with your insulin sensitivity, drive sugar cravings, and change the way your body stores fat—especially around the belly.
I also share the simple daily habits that can stabilize your blood sugar, improve energy, and help you feel more like yourself again—without dieting or depriving yourself.
From protein-packed breakfasts and post-meal movement to stress management and strength training, these hormone-friendly strategies can be the game-changer your midlife body needs.
You’ll hear about:
-The real reason your belly fat won’t budge
-How blood sugar, cortisol, and hormones are all connected
-What makes your body shift into fat-storage mode during perimenopause
-How to eat for hormone balance (hint: no more “naked carbs”!)
-My favorite low-effort, high-impact blood sugar hacks
Remember: your body isn’t broken. It’s just asking for a new level of support.
