08 Oct 2023S2E3 Why to think of ageing when you're in 40s?00:25:25

In this episode, I talk about why it may be important to think of ageing even when you're 40. NOT the usual dreadful and dark thinking though! I invite you to reframe how you view ageing and how to add more intention to it.

I'm really passionate about this topic and profoundly care that we all can find our own ways of embracing ageing and redefining what it means to us. 

Here's to ageing better, be healthier and reframing that mindset around perimenopause and growing older. We've got this!

27 May 2024S3E3 Resistance to change in your 40s and how to overcome it00:28:50

We know what it's good for us. We know there are some things we need to create or to be different in our life, whether it's eating differently or whether it's exercising more or looking after ourselves and our stress levels. And yet we are not doing them. What the heck?

In this episode, Ags discusses the common theme of resistance, particularly as it pertains to perimenopause and health-related changes. We dive into the natural ways of why resistance shows up when making lifestyle changes, the role of hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause on motivation and energy levels, and the societal pressures that can exacerbate these challenges. I feel like it's a topic that often gets missed, but if you experience resistance to change in your 40, know that it is NORMAL! (I literally experienced it as I was recording THIS episode ;)). 

Ags also shares practical strategies for overcoming resistance, including self-awareness, setting clear and manageable goals, and creating a supportive environment. By understanding these complexities, you can better navigate changes and invite a little more self-care and understanding into your perimenopause journey.

02:39 A deep dive into resistance: understanding its roots

05:23 The hormonal dance and what resistance got to do with it

09:02 Societal expectations and midlife sneaky stereotypes

14:59 Real-life practical strategies for overcoming resistance

03 Jun 2024S3E4 Are small steps really overrated?00:10:27

In this episode, Ags debunks a myth of small steps being embarrassing or useless. Let’s face it, we often crave quick results and get frustrated with tiny beginnings, especially when trying to overhaul habits that took YEARS to form. Tricky? 

Well, many of us feel embarrassed by the idea of starting so small..so what do we do? We don’t start at all! But here’s the thing: those small steps are crucial for the magic to happen.

Whether it's sneaking in a short daily workout or adding an extra serving of veggies, these small tweaks can create a ripple effect leading to major health improvements over time. And this is key in perimenopause. 

Listen to learn how to change your perspective on tiny steps, how to set realistic, bite-sized goals and ACTUALLY stick to them, so you build momentum and confidence and finally feel more in control of your wellbeing.
