Do you ever feel like your energy is all over the place, your brain has gone offline, or you’re suddenly more irritable than usual? You’re doing your best to juggle work, family, and life… but something just feels off?
I only recently realized I’ve likely been in perimenopause for two years, and connecting the dots was a total game-changer. Some days I’m on fire, focused, and energized; other days, brain fog and fatigue make even simple tasks feel impossible.
Navigating this transition while running a business and life has meant rethinking priorities, giving myself grace, and learning to show up differently. It’s not just about getting through the day, it’s about understanding what your body and mind need so you can actually thrive.
Whether you’re struggling, feeling stuck, or somewhere in between — this episode shares what I’ve learned, the shifts that help, and how to start showing up as the CEO of your energy, health, and life.
What You’ll Learn:
- The real symptoms of perimenopause (there are up to 100!) and why they’re often misattributed to other causes
- How perimenopause affects your business performance, decision-making, and energy levels (and what to do about it)
- Practical strategies for restructuring your business to accommodate energy fluctuations
- Why perimenopause is a team sport and how to bring your partner and family on this journey with you
- Why this transition can actually be your entry into a powerful new phase of life
- The importance of normalizing perimenopause conversations in entrepreneurial spaces
Key Takeaways:
Your worth isn’t tied to your productivity. Some days you’ll be on fire, others you’ll need to rest. Both are valid and necessary parts of this transition.
Communication prevents misunderstanding. When family and partners understand what you’re experiencing, they can support you instead of taking mood changes personally.
Energy-aligned scheduling beats forcing consistency. Schedule deep work during high-energy windows and build buffer time around natural dips.
This is a transition into wisdom, not decline. Many cultures celebrate menopause as entering a powerful new life phase – embrace the opportunity to care less about others’ expectations.
Support systems aren’t luxury, they’re necessity. Whether it’s a VA, house help, or meal prep – reducing your load during this transition is essential for thriving.
Your business model may need to evolve. Shift from energy-intensive services to leveraged programs and passive income streams that work even when you’re resting.
