The Long Run: Navigating Early Perimenopause


Listen Later

What happens when your body shifts pace long before you expect it to?

At 32, Kerry was working in the makeup industry - long days spent on her feet, standing behind counters, raising three children and trying to keep up with life. But her body began sending signals she couldn’t ignore: brain fog so strong she’d forget why she walked into a room, mood changes that didn’t feel like the anxiety she had experienced before, aches and pains and two years of relentless bleeding before a polyp was finally removed.

Exhaustion became constant - and not the 'normal' kind that comes from work or parenting.

In this episode, Kerry shares how she slowly realised she was navigating early perimenopause, years before she imagined it was possible. Now a marathon runner, she reflects on endurance, identity and the emotional load of motherhood, managing her own business and how perimenopause can feel like a race you never trained for.

A grounded, powerful story about listening to your body and finding your pace in a season of unexpected change.
