💥💥Here’s the truth💥💥

Just because you made it through perimenopause does not mean you’re through the woods.😫

Everyone loves to say postmenopause is smooth sailing. Calm. Easy. Relief.
but if you’re not feeling that way, you are not crazy.💕

If hormones aren’t balanced, you can still feel awful.😕

⭐️Cravings
⭐️Belly weight that won’t budge.
⭐️Anxiety and low mood
⭐️Joint pain.
⭐️Low motivation
⭐️Poor sleep
⭐️That wired but exhausted feeling

Why?
👇👇👇
Because estrogen and progesterone are still declining or already gone, and cortisol and insulin resistance often creep up if stress, blood sugar, and lifestyle aren’t supported.

It’s definitely not “just aging.”💯💯

There is more you can do. And you deserve to feel better in your body and your mind. And getting tested as the first part of that, just so you know what’s going on.

If you want support, real conversations, and guidance that actually makes sense for hormonal women navigating midlife, DM COOL and I’ll tell you about the Cool Girl Collective.💕❤️💕

Not gonna do it! And you can’t make me🤣

As a hormonal woman over 50 navigating life, here’s what I’m not doing anymore.👇👇👇

I’m not talking on the phone at night.
If it’s after dinner, my nervous system is clocked out and my brain is already in pajamas.💯💯

I’m not booking plans that start after dark.😂🙌
My best energy is during the day, and I’m done pretending otherwise.

I’m not wearing shoes that hurt.
Not for fashion, not for photos, not for anyone.

I’m not forcing myself to be the “cool girl.”
I don’t want late nights, loud concerts, or pushing through exhaustion just to keep up.😳

What I do want is ⭐️ease.
⭐️Good sleep.
⭐️Peaceful evenings.
⭐️Comfort over performance.
⭐️Energy

What are you not doing anymore?

It’s so frustrating! 😫

If you’re gaining weight around your midsection in midlife, it’s rarely JUST hormones. It can be so much more.💥

⭐️Yes, hormones matter.
But what we don’t talk about enough are the SYMPTOMS of hormonal shifts.

👉Poor sleep.
👉Higher stress.
👉Low energy.
👉Mood changes.
👉Feeling overwhelmed, depleted, or disconnected from yourself.

And those symptoms often lead to emotional eating, stress eating, night eating, or mindless snacking.

👉Not because you lack willpower, but because your nervous system is trying to cope.💕💕💕

😳Midlife belly weight is often the result of a perfect storm:
👇
Hormones + stress + under-fueling + people-pleasing + exhaustion + using food to self-soothe.🍪🍫🍟

So if you’re blaming yourself or thinking you’re doing something wrong, please stop. Give yourself grace and love and compassion.❤️

This is exactly what we work on inside the Cool Girl Collective.🌺
Support for midlife women navigating hormones, emotional eating, stress, and feeling at home in their bodies again.

What do you want for Christmas? 🎄

All I want for Christmas isn’t more stuff.😜

It’s fewer symptoms, more peace, and pants that fit consistently.💯💯

If you’re a hormonal woman over 50 navigating midlife, this list is for you.

Somewhere along the way, the wish list shifted from things …to comfort, calm, and feeling good in my own body.

Midlife has a way of doing that. It humbles me, teaches me, and …sometimes just makes me laugh.

🎅🎁🎄What’s on your list?

And if you want connection, laughter, and real support with women who get this season of life, DM COOL to join the Cool Girl Collective.

Check out The Emotional Eats Podcast for all things midlife💕🌺

🎄All I want for Christmas is not a thing…
It’s a post menopause vibe.

🎄Pants that fit every day of the month.
🎄Energy without caffeine roulette.
🎄A metabolism that didn’t ghost me.
🎄Remembering why I walked into the room.
🎄Silence as a love language.

If you’re a woman over 50, you know this list isn’t dramatic. It’s accurate.🙌

Midlife has a funny way of humbling us, teaching us, and also making us laugh at things we never thought we’d be negotiating with our bodies about.⭐️

Which one is at the top of your Christmas wish list?

Comment below and let’s build the list together.👇👇👇

How you start the day can change everything!💯💯

If you’re not a breakfast person, I get it.

💥But here’s the truth. How you start your day sets the tone for every craving, every energy dip, every “why am I in the pantry again” moment that shows up later.💯💯

👉When you skip breakfast or grab something sugary, your gut and taste buds spend the rest of the day chasing that same hit.

👉You’re hungrier. You’re crankier. You’re fighting cravings that didn’t need to be there in the first place.

A simple protein and fiber breakfast changes everything.
⭐️It steadies your blood sugar.
⭐️It calms the urge for sugar all day long.
⭐️It gives you the energy you need so you’re not white-knuckling your way to lunch or overeating at dinner.

This isn’t about perfection. 💕It’s about supporting your hormonal, midlife body in a way that actually works.🙌

If you want support on all of this, DM COOL.🌺🌺

The Cool Girl Collective is my midlife support group where we talk menopause, emotional eating, energy, belly changes, habits, and how to feel better in your body without dieting or deprivation. DM COOL and I’ll send you the details.

Being the good girl equals emotional eating🍫🥯🥪🍪

If you grew up being the good girl, always saying yes, keeping the peace, and taking care of everyone else first, you already know how this story ends.

You’re exhausted and grabbing whatever sugar or junk you can find just to get a little hit of calm.🧁

That dopamine? It’s quick.

The consequences? They stay. 😕Fatigue, cravings, guilt, and feeling even more disconnected from yourself.

👉The truth is you don’t need more willpower.

🌺You need more self care.

When you stop for a minute and ask what your body actually needs, it’s almost never a handful of cookies.

⭐️It’s nourishment. It’s protein and fiber.
⭐️It’s a minute to breathe.
⭐️It’s boundaries.
⭐️It’s saying no when your whole body is screaming no.

❤️❤️You’re not bad for wanting comfort. You just deserve comfort that actually supports you.

Start with you.
Start with real food.
Start with boundaries that give you your peace back.

If you’re a hormonal woman over 50 navigating midlife and you’re tired of emotional eating running the show, comment COOL and I’ll get you into the Cool Girl Collective for support.💕🌺💕

Stop the snacking, but don’t stop eating! 🙌🙌

You know that weird window between lunch and dinner when you suddenly find yourself in the pantry… again?

It’s not because you have no willpower. It’s because your body actually NEEDS fuel in the afternoon, but the quick snacks you reach for aren’t meeting your needs.

🍫🥯🥪A handful of sugar or processed carbs is only giving you a dopamine hit.💥

👉⭐️It’s not keeping you full, it’s not satisfying your brain, and it’s definitely not preventing that nighttime emotional eating crash you hate.

When you give your body a real mini meal in the afternoon with protein and fiber, everything changes.

🌺Your cravings calm down.
🌺Your mood stabilizes.
🌺Dinner becomes intentional instead of desperate.
🌺And that after-dinner emotional eating spiral stops before it starts.

You’re underfed and overstimulated.
Fuel yourself the right way and watch your evenings transform.✨✨✨✨

🌺❤️🌺Comment COOL to join the Cool Girl Collective for midlife support for menopause, emotional eating, menopause weight loss, healing from chronic illness, and everything that comes with navigating women’s midlife health.

You reach a certain age and something finally clicks.🙌🙌

✨Over 50, you realize you don’t have the time, the energy, or the emotional bandwidth for the nonsense anymore.

⭐️You’re done explaining yourself.
⭐️You’re done carrying other people’s expectations.
⭐️You’re done shrinking so everyone else feels comfortable.
⭐️You’re done over-functioning.
⭐️You’re done pretending you don’t notice the things that drain you.
⭐️You’re done saying yes when your whole body is begging you to say no.
⭐️You’re done tolerating chaos, guilt, or pressure in the name of being the good girl.

There’s a new version of you now, and she is clear, grounded, and not here for anything that steals her peace.❤️

So let’s talk about it.👇👇👇
What are you not gonna do anymore as a hormonal woman over 50 navigating midlife?

You may not be lazy… It could be your hormones! 💯

If you’ve been feeling unmotivated, slow, or like you’ve somehow turned into a “lazy” version of yourself, please pause for a second before you judge yourself.💕💕

Postmenopause can hit you hard. 💥

👉When estrogen and progesterone drop, everything from your energy to your drive can feel flat. Add in shifting testosterone levels and it makes even simple things feel heavier than they should.⭐️

✨✨This isn’t about willpower. It’s not a character flaw. It’s physiology. And once you understand what your body is working through, it becomes a lot easier to get the right support and start feeling like yourself again.💕

Inside the Cool Girl Collective, we talk about this openly so you don’t have to figure it out alone.

If you want help navigating midlife hormones, energy dips, weight changes, and emotional eating, comment COOL and I’ll send you the details.🌺❤️🌺

It’s December 1, and if you’re a hormonal woman over 50 navigating midlife, this is the month that actually matters. Not January. ✨

We wait for the new year because it feels safer. 💕💕You tell yourself you’ll magically be more disciplined or more motivated when the calendar flips. But that’s not how your brain works. 🧠

Big dramatic changes feel threatening, especially when your nervous system is already stressed, your cortisol is high, and your energy is split between everyone else’s needs. 😵‍💫

That’s why every January starts strong and crashes hard. 💥

Tiny December habits don’t overwhelm your system. They build momentum quietly and consistently.💪💪💪

Ten air squats while your coffee brews. ☕
A five minute walk after dinner. 🚶‍♀️
Protein and fiber added to one meal. 🍳

Small things add up in a way January promises don’t. ✔️

So if you want a different January, start now.⭐️⭐️⭐️

🌺Start doable. Not perfect.
🌺Start tiny. Not dramatic.
🌺Start today, not someday.

If you’re a hormonal woman over 50 navigating midlife and you want support getting through December so January doesn’t feel like another restart, follow for more support. ❤️

And if you want a space to feel supported, ask questions, and learn with other midlife women, the Cool Girl Collective is open. It’s our community for real conversations, live Q&A’s, and coaching to help you feel better in your body and your life. 💗
