Your Midlife Metabolism Isn’t Broken: How Stress Changes Everything
Wednesday, December 17th at 5pm PST
Replay available if you can’t attend live
A free live class for women 40+ who want to feel clearer, steadier, and more at home in their bodies
Why This Matters
Our bodies change in midlife, and so does the way we respond to stress.
Shifting hormones mean we lose some of the calming and protective support that estrogen and progesterone used to provide. Suddenly:
-
​stress lands harder
-
sleep is more fragile
-
moods swing more easily
-
cravings show up out of nowhere
-
weight changes feel confusing and frustrating
And for many women, old survival patterns - hypervigilance, people-pleasing, perfectionism - can resurface.
​
Even past traumas that felt resolved may show up again because the internal buffering you once had is now different.​
None of this means you're doing something wrong.
​
It simply means your midlife body needs a different kind of care.
​
And once you understand why, you can finally stop fighting yourself and start working with your physiology instead.
​
This free class will help you make sense of what’s happening inside your body - and give you simple, supportive ways to feel grounded and regulated again.
Who This Is For
This class is designed for women 40+ who:
-
feel wired, tired, overwhelmed, or stretched thin
-
notice shifts in energy, mood, sleep, or weight that don’t make sense
-
feel more sensitive to stress or easily knocked off balance
-
are doing “all the right things” but not seeing results
-
want a compassionate, trauma-aware approach rather than pressure or perfection
-
long to feel steady, present, and connected to their bodies again
If you're craving clarity, relief, and a grounded way forward to feel more ease and clarity, you’re in the right place!
