The transformation may not look massive to you.
But to me? It means everything.
The left photo is me in the thick of perimenopause. Inflamed. Puffy. My face shape changed. My nose looked different. My arms were thick and watery. I didn’t recognize myself.
And it wasn’t just physical.
I wasn’t sleeping.
My moods were all over the place.
I was so anxious and so depressed that I had my long blonde extensions taken out because I couldn’t bear the thought of sitting in a chair for a few hours to get them done.
I just… started over.
On everything.
That was one of the hardest seasons of my life.
And it was hard to be in that body publicly, because I had built my entire community on being the fit one.
The trainer.
The one who had it together.
I was at the height of my career.
I felt my best.
I looked my best.
And then overnight, my body and my mind just weren’t mine anymore.
I fought like hell to get back here. And even though it’s only 20 pounds, it’s 20 pounds that changed my body composition, my face, my muscle definition, my sleep, my mood, my mind.
This is what working with your hormones looks like.
I’m so grateful I have a team that knows how to do this and I want that for you too.

I sat in my car after a doctor’s appointment and sobbed.

Not because of the diagnosis.

Because there wasn’t one. Just another prescription and zero answers.

I was a trainer on national television. I built my life around being strong. And something was quietly taking me apart, my energy, my body, my sleep, my sense of self.

It took me years to find out what was actually happening. And it changed everything.

If you’ve been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or just handed an antidepressant and sent home, this carousel is for you.

Perimenopause doesn’t just change your body. It can quietly strains your marriage, too.

I know. Because we lived it.

And it’s not just about libido, though that’s real too.
It’s about this:

↳ Feeling like a shell of the woman you used to be
↳ Losing your zest for life , not just desire for your partner
↳ Anxiety and depression that make you question everything
↳ Intrusive thoughts about your relationship that aren’t based in reality
↳ The joy getting stripped away quietly, slowly, until it ripples to those around you. It wears on them equally sometimes.
↳ Snapping, withdrawing, disconnecting, and not knowing why
↳ Feeling empty when you used to feel full

This is not ALWAYS marriage problem. (Although it can feel like it)
This is not a you problem, either

This is a hormone problem that nobody prepared us for. 🙃

The women I work with have built incredible lives. Careers they’re proud of.
Relationships they have fought for.
Standards they refuse to lower.
And they are done letting their hormones quietly unravel everything they have worked so hard to create.

They don’t settle for “this is just aging.”

They get answers.
They get their spark back.
They show up fully for themselves first, and then for everyone they love.

If that sounds like you, I created something for you.

I was a Biggest Loser trainer, on the cover of magazines, and considered one of the top weight loss experts.

Then perimenopause took the rug out from under me.
Turns out, I had a lot to unlearn.

They gave you antidepressants. Then birth control. Then a sleep aid. And you still feel like garbage.

I say this with so much love because for some women, these medications are absolutely necessary and lifesaving. This isn’t about that.

This is about the millions of women whose health is so incredibly complex that handing them a prescription without a full picture isn’t just incomplete, it’s not fully informed consent.

Here’s what the science actually says 👇

Roughly 1 in 4 women in their 40s is on an antidepressant. But perimenopausal depression and anxiety are largely driven by fluctuating estrogen and progesterone, not a serotonin deficiency. SSRIs don’t touch that.

And birth control? This one is important. The pill works by shutting down your natural hormone production entirely. Which means your body stops making progesterone, the hormone responsible for calm, sleep, and mood stability. So while it might quiet some symptoms on the surface, underneath your hormones are still shifting without support.

For many women it also depletes magnesium, B6, and zinc, the exact nutrients your nervous system needs to get through this transition well. When women come off it, most feel significantly worse than before they ever started.

Sleep aids don’t fix the progesterone deficiency and cortisol dysregulation that’s actually waking you up at 3am.
You deserve a full conversation about your health.

Perimenopausal hot takes! Also, the amount of buffalo sauce I consume in a 12 month period should probably be studied 👀
