Hey friend,
Are you waking up exhausted, no matter how much sleep you get? Are you drooling on your keyboard by 3 PM, wondering if napping under your desk is less fireable than falling asleep during a Zoom? Or maybe you want to change your habits, but every attempt feels like a nonstarter.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Studies show that 85% of women in midlife experience chronic fatigue, brain fog, and lack of motivation—leaving many of us to wonder:
Is it just “aging”, or is something actually wrong?
The problem isn’t your willpower, your workouts, or even what time you go to bed—it’s your hormones.
That’s because in midlife, hormone shifts can send our brain into energy-conservation mode, draining motivation and making even simple lifestyle changes feel impossible. 
In this episode, you will learn:
✔ Why your lack of energy isn’t just a phase—and how midlife hormones actually work together to hijack your brain
✔ The impact of adrenal fatigue, insulin resistance, and thyroid function on our energy, mood, and mental drive
✔ Why willpower alone isn’t enough—and what your brain actually needs to get you moving
✔ How perimenopause and menopause trick your body into slowing down (and how to override the shutdown)
If you find yourself asking:
❓ Why am I so exhausted even after a full night of sleep?
❓ Why do I feel completely unmotivated, even though I want to change?
❓ Is this just part of getting older, or is something actually wrong?
Then this episode is for you! 🎧
