Feeling flat while the world shouts about fresh starts? There's nothing wrong with you - your body is speaking. I open the new year on the podcast by naming the quiet heaviness so many women feel in their 40s, 50s and beyond, and I explain why “what’s the point?” is often a hormonal response rather than a lack of willpower. With oestrogen swings, lower progesterone, louder cortisol and a dip in dopamine, motivation can stall. The fix isn’t more hype. It’s creating safety so your physiology can support change.
I break down a peri and menopause-friendly approach to weight loss that doesn’t begin with guesswork about what to eat or gruelling workouts. Instead, I focus on stabilising blood sugar with regular meals, prioritising protein for mood and metabolism, choosing movement you love to do, and protecting sleep as a fat loss lever. This isn’t about perfection; it’s about reducing urgency so cortisol settles and consistency becomes possible. You don’t need to believe in a big goal today—you just need a plan that respects your hormones and your life.
I also talk about why support matters when stress is high and tolerance is low. Clear food lists, realistic portions, a hormone-aware strategy, and steady accountability can remove guesswork and rebuild trust with your body. You’re not starting from zero; you’re starting from experience. If you’re ready to feel steady again, tune in, take one small step, and let safety lead the way.
If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs relief from January pressure, and leave a quick review. Want personalised support? Book a Peri Weight Loss Assessment via the link below and let’s see if The Glow Protocol® is right for you.
