Eps 416: Chronic Pain in Women Over 40: What’s Really Going On with Stacey Roberts

The aches and pains that show up in perimenopause are often brushed off as “just aging.”Lately, I’ve been hearing from so many women who feel like their bodies suddenly changed overnight. The stiff shoulders, aching joints, sore hips, random pains after workouts, or waking up feeling uncomfortable from simply sleeping the “wrong” way. In this conversation, I sat down with Stacey Roberts to unpack why chronic pain and joint issues become so common in midlife and why it may have far more to do with hormones, inflammation, gut health, stress, and the nervous system than most women realize. Episode Timeline: 00:00 - Why Everything Suddenly Hurts01:44 - Stacey’s Knee Injury Story04:48 - Arthritis Without Pain06:54 - Hormones And Joint Pain11:15 - Stress Makes Pain Worse15:08 - The Gut-Joint Connection18:01 - Leaky Gut And Arthritis20:05 - Food Triggers Chronic Pain23:32 - Food Sensitivity Testing Explained24:42 - Frozen Shoulder In Midlife27:36 - Why Frozen Shoulder Happens30:20 - Biggest Frozen Shoulder Mistake31:38 - Understanding Hypermobility36:03 - Stress And Chronic Pain37:52 - Nervous System And Inflammation38:53 - First Steps To Relief41:32 - Daily Habits That Help42:49 - Chronic Pain Isn’t Permanent44:23 - Listening To Your Body45:11 - Where To Find StaceyConnect with Stacey Roberts:Website: newyouhealthandwellness.com  FB: https://www.facebook.com/newyouhealthandwellness/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/newyouhealthandwellness/Website: For Soft wave therapy practitioners: Softwavetrt.comThe Pain Free Formula Book on Amazon:🔗 Links & Resources🌐Beam Minerals:(USE DISCOUNT CODE: BRIA at checkout for 20% off) 🌐AG1: DrinkAG1.com/BRIA (for a free $76 gift when you try AG1) 🌐 Website:🎧 Listen to past episodes: 📝 Grab The Ultimate Guide To Make Nutrition Easy In Perimenopause: 📝 Grab The Ultimate Guide To Peptides For Perimenopause: 📩 Book a Free Discovery Call:
