From a young age, society tells women how our bodies should look and judges us when we don’t match up with the unrealistic standards we’re fed. From idealized body shapes to how quickly we’re expected to lose baby weight, the whole topic of women’s weight can be triggering.

One of the most challenging times to manage this is around perimenopause when many women experience weight gain unlike anything they have before. They’re eating the same way and moving the same amount, but the weight gets added, and it's tough to lose.

The good news is that there’s so much we can do to support and nourish ourselves to feel healthy and vibrant during this change. Today, I’m joined by Erin Parekh, a Clinical and Functional Nutritionist, and Women’s Health Specialist, to talk about how we can empower ourselves as women in our late 30s and 40s when it comes to hormonal changes and weight loss.   In this conversation, Erin and I talk about the hormonal changes women experience in their 40s, how these changes impact our weight, practical tips for managing stress levels, how you can start prioritizing sleep, what it looks like to maintain a balanced diet, and more.   Let's pull joy in together!
