Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I’m talking openly about perimenopause, what it actually is, how to know if you’re in it, and why so many of us feel confused or caught off guard by the changes happening in our bodies. I walk through the real hormonal shifts with estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, how they affect your brain, metabolism, gut, mood, and body composition, and why this season calls for a different approach to nutrition, training, sleep, and stress. This is an honest, practical conversation meant to help you understand what’s happening and how to move forward with more clarity and confidence.
