In this episode, I’m breaking down something that almost no one is talking about when it comes to perimenopause and menopause…

It's that your body might not be getting enough fuel.

So many women over 30 are dealing with:
- low energy
- brain fog
- weight gain
- poor sleep
- feeling completely disconnected from their body

…and the first place they’re told to look is supplements.

But what I see over and over again working with women is this:

Years of dieting + under-eating + on-and-off cycles

Which makes all these symptoms hit harder.

In this episode, we talk about:
- why chronic dieting impacts your body more as you age
- how under-eating can worsen common perimenopause symptoms
- why supplements are NOT the first step (they’re the top layer)
- what “fueling your body properly” actually means
- why maintenance calories are the most overlooked starting point
- how to stop living in the “on vs off” cycle with food

This is about coming back to the basics and rebuilding a foundation your body can actually function on.

Because when your body is finally getting what it needs… everything else becomes easier.

If you’ve been feeling like:
“I don’t feel like myself anymore”
“I’ve tried everything and nothing works”

This episode will help you understand why AND what to focus on instead.

If you want help figuring out your own maintenance calories, I’ve created a simple 3-day guide you can start right away (linked below).
