Stress plays a central role in hormone balance during perimenopause, but it’s not just emotional. In this episode, we explore how stress affects ovulation, progesterone, cortisol, sleep, and why your body may feel more sensitive than ever in midlife.
If you’ve been skipping breakfast and wondering why you feel wired, tired, or out of sync, this episode is for you. I break down why intermittent fasting doesn’t always work for women in midlife, and what to do instead.
Suddenly feeling itchy, flushed, or reactive to foods in your 40s? It might be histamine. In this episode, I explain why this happens in perimenopause and what you can do to support your body.
Perimenopause isn’t just a physical transition, it can be a wake-up call that makes you reevaluate your lifestyle, habits, and even relationships. In this episode, I explore why this happens and how it can become a powerful opportunity for change.
If you’ve ever wondered what a nutritional therapist actually does in perimenopause, this episode takes you behind the scenes. Discover how a root-cause health assessment works, what’s really driving your symptoms, and how a personalised plan can help you feel like yourself again.
Thyroid dysfunction and perimenopause share many of the same symptoms, including fatigue, brain fog, weight gain and sleep problems. In this episode, Francesca explains how the thyroid works, why women are more likely to develop thyroid issues in midlife, and how progesterone, stress and lifestyle factors all influence thyroid health during perimenopause.
Why do so many women feel exhausted in the morning but wired at night during their 40s? In this episode, Francesca explains how cortisol rhythms change in perimenopause and how stress affects your hormones, thyroid, sleep and digestion.
Alcohol hits differently in your 40s, but changing your relationship with it can feel emotional. In this honest conversation with Denise Hamilton-Mace, we explore reducing alcohol in midlife without losing your identity, friendships or fun.
Building muscle after 40 isn’t about aesthetics, it’s about protecting your metabolism, brain, bones and long-term health through perimenopause and beyond.
