Lessons during perimenopause

Lessons during perimenopause

This lesson is hard for me. Like really hard. Did I mention it is hard??

It is hard watching other women do the exact same things I am doing and seeing completely different results. 

It is hard listening to influencers promise if you just take this supplement you feel amazing. 

Or hearing trainers insist that a calorie deficit is the answer...every single time.

The truth is...

We were never designed to be the same. 

Our hormones are different. 

Our genetics are different. 

Out metabolism is different. 

Our stress levels are different. 

Our lifestyles are different. 

Even your mom, your sister or your best friend won't experience perimenopause exactly the way you will. 

So please...

Don't compare your journey to someone else's. 

Don't get discouraged if you are making all the right choices and aren't seeing the results you had hoped for. 

Keep choosing the foods that nourish your body. 

Keep moving your body.

Keep prioritizing sleep. 

Keep taking care of yourself. 

Because success in this season isn't about looking like someone else. 

It's about becoming the healthiest version of yourself. 

Your body isn't failing you. 

It's asking for something different than the women around you. 

And that's ok.
