In this week’s episode, I’m explaining why this pattern shows up more in your 40s and 50s, and how hormones, stress and years of dieting push your brain toward short-term comfort over long-term goals.

We break down what’s actually happening in peri + postmenopause, the emotional-eating loop, and why willpower drops exactly when you need it most.

I’m also sharing the simple tools I use with clients; stabilising blood sugar, regulating your nervous system, shrinking goals, and using compassionate accountability… so change feels calmer and more sustainable.

If you’re tired of “starting again” every January, this episode will make you feel seen, supported, and back in control!

If weight loss feels harder than it used to, it’s not a discipline problem. It’s usually one (or more) of these getting in the way: insulin resistance, high cortisol, under-eating, inflammation, and poor sleep.

These blockers change how your body stores fat, manages hunger, and uses energy. When they’re not addressed, no amount of “trying harder” works.

The good news is that once you know what’s blocking progress, you can support your body in the right order and weight loss starts to feel possible again.

Santa isn’t counting macros. And neither should you. 🎅

In this episode of Ageless and Awesome, I talk about why hyper-tracking food over the holidays can backfire, especially in perimenopause and menopause. We cover how restriction raises cortisol, disrupts blood sugar, and makes it harder to get back into rhythm after Christmas.

This is about staying grounded, enjoying food without guilt, and supporting your hormones through the festive season.. not blowing things up or starting over in January! 🦋🍃

Holiday season is here, but fear doesn’t have to come with it.

There’s a calmer, more supportive way to enjoy this month without swinging between restriction and regret.

Midlife bodies respond differently now; to stress, late nights, sugar, alcohol, and emotional load… and once you understand that, the pressure lifts. This season doesn’t need stricter rules or “starting again” energy.

Small, hormone-aware shifts can make a big difference!!

Think steadier meals, protecting sleep where you can, gentle movement, and giving your nervous system a little more support when things feel busy or emotional. 🩵

Your midlife body just needs a different strategy; one that actually works with your hormones, not against them.

In this week’s episode, I’m breaking down why stress, sugar, late nights and alcohol hit harder now, and the tiny shifts that make the whole month feel easier (think protein-first, planned drinks, and a 10-min walk after meals).

Plus my simple December non-negotiables to keep you steady, calm and out of the restrict→regret cycle.

No perfection.
No “starting Monday.”
Just a clearer, kinder way to support your mind, hormones and metabolism through the festive season.

If you want a personalised January plan, Glow Protocol assessments are open. 🍃

If you’re over 40 and gaining weight without changing your diet, your body isn’t “broken.” It’s responding to hormonal shifts that change the way you store energy, burn fuel, handle stress, and recover.

In perimenopause, you become more sensitive to insulin, cortisol rises faster, muscle mass naturally drops, and your nervous system carries a heavier load.

So the same meals… the same workouts… the same routine… suddenly land very differently.

This isn’t about willpower.
It’s chemistry.
And once you understand that, everything starts to make more sense!

If you’re tired of “starting again on Monday,” this one’s for you.

Consistency gets harder after 40 not because you’re unmotivated, but because your hormones, sleep, stress and nervous system are changing. In this week’s episode, I’m breaking down why old weight-loss methods stop working… and the simple shifts that actually stick.

Think: calmer nervous system, steadier meals, smaller goals, and support that keeps you going when life gets messy.

If you’re ready to stop relying on willpower and start using a plan that works with your hormones, tune in. 🦋

Most women think “rest” just means getting 8 hours of sleep.
But in perimenopause, rest becomes something much deeper.
Your body is working harder than ever to regulate hormones, mood, energy, and temperature so the kind of rest you need shifts too.

Swipe through to learn what rest actually looks like in this season of life, and why it matters more than you think. 🩵🦋
