- Low energy

- Sugar cravings
- Poor sleep
- Workouts that suddenly stop working
In this episode, Coach C explains:
- What perimenopause really is (and why no one told you)
- Why dieting and HIIT backfire now
- How hormones, cortisol, and blood sugar control fat storage
- What actually works to lose weight and feel like yourself again
This is not about discipline, it’s about using the right strategy for your current hormonal season.
If you’re a woman in leadership, business, or high-performance life and feel like your body changed overnight… this episode will change how you see yourself forever.
