Why Women Feel “Off” in Their 30s & 40s - Hormones, Stress & Metabolism Explained

from Life Changing Money with Barbara Schreihans · host Barbara Schreihans

Are your hormones silently impacting your energy, mood, weight, and performance and you don’t even realize it yet? In this episode of Life Changing Money, Barbara sits down with Dr. Paige Gutheil, an osteopathic physician specializing in female hormone and metabolic health, to discuss what really happens to women’s bodies in their 30s, 40s, and beyond. If you’ve ever felt like something is “off” but can’t quite explain it, this conversation will connect the dots. From sleep disruptions and anxiety to weight gain and brain fog, Dr. Paige explains why these symptoms are often early signs of perimenopause and hormonal shifts and not personal failure. Tune in to hear: The earliest signs of perimenopause most women miss Why you might feel “off” even when everything looks fine on paper The real reason weight gain happens (even when you’re doing everything right) How stress and high performance impact your hormones What’s happening between your brain, ovaries, and adrenal glands Why traditional diet and fitness advice often stops working The foundational health strategies every woman should start with How progesterone plays a key role in early hormone support The link between hormones, insulin resistance, and metabolism Why women weren’t properly studied in medicine until recently The importance of advocating for your health and being believed How a membership-based healthcare model creates better outcomes Why community and environment matter for healing and growth Connect with Paige: https://www.drpaige.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.paige.do How To Get Involved: Life-Changing Money is a podcast all about money.
