  117. Why Following the Wrong Advice Keeps Women Stuck in Perimenopause

  Aug 4, 20269 minS1

  Between supplements, protocols, and influencers all claiming to have "the answer," it's easy to end up more overwhelmed than when you started — chasing what worked for someone else instead of what your own body actually needs. In this episode, I'm sharing why I took a few weeks off from the podcast, what my twice-a-year business audit taught me about the difference between noise and real data, and how that exact same principle applies to your health in perimenopause. You'll learn: Why chasing what worked for someone else usually leaves you busier, not better What my own business data taught me about where real results actually come from Why testing that matters (bloodwork, minerals, and your whole picture) beats trends How nutrients work like the foundation of a house: skip them and nothing else holds What it actually takes to make progress consistently, instead of spinning your wheels Ready to stop guessing about your health & hormones?
