Your 40s is not the time to push through with the habits that worked in your 20s. Hormones shift, and so should your habits and routines. In this episode, I’m breaking down 6 of the most common hormonal imbalances women face in their late 30s and 40s (and beyond), and sharing simple, nourishing ways to support your body with each one.
I discuss:
- Why your nervous system and hormones are more sensitive now
- The surprising truth about oestrogen in perimenopause
- What’s behind the “wired but tired” feeling
- Why skipping breakfast or overdoing HIIT might be hurting your hormones
- Powerful lifestyle tweaks that bring balance and calm
Mentioned in this episode:
- Key signs of low progesterone, high or erratic oestrogen, cortisol dysregulation, insulin resistance, and low melatonin
- Practical tips you can start today: from nervous system support and breakfast protein to light exposure and walking after meals
Tune into episode 42 and learn how to shift from hormonal chaos to hormonal harmony, one change at a time!
