## Resource

Perimenopause can begin up to 10 years before menopause, yet many women don’t realize that’s what they’re experiencing. In this episode, Jenny explains what perimenopause really is, the hormonal shifts behind common symptoms, and how to recognize the early signs, from anxiety, poor sleep, and mood swings to cycle changes, fatigue, and weight gain. Jenny also shares why stress becomes harder to manage during this phase and how supporting your body through simple lifestyle habits can make a powerful difference. You’ll learn where to start, including protecting sleep, nourishing your body with enough protein and fiber, and incorporating movement.
