About this episode
In this groundbreaking episode, I'm tackling one of the most frustrating challenges women face during perimenopause and menopause: metabolic changes that seem to happen overnight. Drawing from cutting-edge research and decades of experience, I reveal why that stubborn belly fat appears and - more importantly - the science-backed strategy to reverse it. I'm sharing my four-pillar approach that helps women reclaim their metabolism, build crucial muscle mass, and finally see results. This isn't just another weight loss plan - it's a complete roadmap for understanding and optimizing your midlife metabolism. What you'll learn: The real reason your metabolism changes during menopause (hint: it's not just about estrogen) Why traditional calorie restriction often backfires and what to do instead The critical role of protein timing and how much you actually need A game-changing approach to exercise that specifically targets belly fat How sleep quality directly impacts your ability to lose weight The truth about hormone replacement therapy and metabolism Simple daily habits that can boost your metabolic rate Love the Podcast?
