🌸Have you ever caught yourself thinking —
“I’m eating clean… I’m exercising… so why do I still feel stuck?”
You’re not imagining it. You are doing things right.
But your body isn’t the same anymore — and that means what worked in your 20's/30s doesn’t work in your 40s and 50s.
Here’s why ⤵️
During perimenopause, your estrogen and progesterone levels start to shift, which affects how your body uses energy, stores fat, and recovers from stress and exercise.
💛 Estrogen helps regulate insulin and metabolism — when it fluctuates, your body can hold onto fat more easily (especially around your waist).
💛 Progesterone helps calm your system and support recovery — when it drops, sleep and stress resilience can take a hit.
So when you push harder — by eating less, training more, or adding more cardio — your body reads that as more stress.
And in response, it produces even more cortisol, the stress hormone that signals your body to hold onto fat and protect energy reserves.
That’s why your “old approach” starts backfiring — it’s not that you’ve lost discipline.
It’s that your hormones have changed the rules of the game.
The good news?
You don’t need to do more. You just need to do what’s right for this version of your body.
Inside The Serene Perimenopause Academy, I’ll teach you exactly how to train and eat for your hormones — so you stop fighting your body and start seeing results again.
💛 This is where things finally start to make sense — and where your energy, body, and confidence return in harmony.
