Description
If you've ever felt dismissed, confused, or completely blindsided by the changes happening in your body, this episode is for you.
Dr. Jolene Brighten, hormone expert and women's medicine advocate, is pulling back the curtain on everything the medical system hasn't told you about perimenopause, strength, and reclaiming your health. From the brain remodeling that happens during perimenopause to why your old dieting strategies are making your hormones worse, Dr. Brighton breaks it all down in a way that finally makes sense.
In this episode we cover:
- Why strong doesn't mean doing it all alone and how to stop wearing that as a badge of honor
- The real reason your brain feels different in perimenopause and what you can actually do about it
- Why strength training is non-negotiable right now and what happens to your hormones when you skip it
- The framework for nutrition that supports your hormones, muscle, and metabolism
- How to stop giving your power away and start being the expert in your own body
This is the conversation your doctor should be having with you but probably isn't.
