Show Notes

In this episode, I dive into what your hormones are actually doing as you move into the phase of perimenopause, which starts anywhere from mid to late 30s and lasts right up until you reach menopause.

I talk about HOW the hormonal landscape changes and WHY, and discuss the various symptoms and changes this starts to create. I explain how the natural cycling of oestrogen and progesterone (the menstrual cycle) changes in your 40s and the various ways we might FEEL and experience this. Knowing WHY is key when it comes to managing your health and having a much better time navigating your hormones.
