Ep. 142 GLP-1 and Perimenopause: Why It Works Differently in a Midlife Body

You're on a GLP-1 and following the advice. But the advice wasn't built for a perimenopausal body. In this episode I break down exactly why GLP-1 works differently in perimenopause and menopause — and what that means for your results. Perfect for women in perimenopause or menopause who are on a GLP-1 and wondering why their experience doesn't match what they expected. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A] Show Intro 01:09 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=69s] GLP-1 In Midlife 01:39 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=99s] Two Women Two Outcomes 02:15 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=135s] Why Protocols Miss Women 03:17 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=197s] Quick Quiz Break 04:05 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=245s] Insulin Sensitivity Shift 05:06 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=306s] Muscle Loss Risk 06:33 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=393s] Cortisol Stress Factor 07:53 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=473s] Hunger Signals Unreliable 08:34 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=514s] What To Do Instead 10:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=610s] Program Invitation 11:29 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDd3-ijbn5A&t=689s] Wrap Up And Goodbye Check out the full show notes at https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-142-glp-1-and-perimenopause-why-it-works-differently-in-a-midlife-body [https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-142-glp-1-and-perimenopause-why-it-works-differently-in-a-midlife-body] Connect with Cindi Perimenopause Morning Reset — https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningresetpodcast [https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningresetpodcast] Book a Metabolism Consultation — https://cal.com/cindi-stickle/metabolism-consultation [https://cal.com/cindi-stickle/metabolism-consultation] Come hang out in my Facebook Group — https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause [https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause]

Ep. 141 GLP-1 and Blood Sugar: What Perimenopause Women Need to Know

You're on a GLP-1, your appetite is down, you're eating less — and your blood sugar is still doing weird things. The crashes. The mood dips. The afternoon fog. The 3am wake-ups. Isn't the medication supposed to help with this? It does. But not in the way most women think. In this episode I break down what GLP-1s actually do for blood sugar, what perimenopause does on top of that, and what you need to eat to make it all actually work. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U] Podcast Intro 01:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=70s] Today's Topic GLP1 Blood Sugar 01:44 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=104s] Why Crashes Still Happen 02:08 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=128s] How GLP1s Work 04:01 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=241s] Perimenopause Insulin Shifts 05:02 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=302s] Common Blood Sugar Patterns 06:12 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=372s] Nutrition Fix Protein Fiber Timing 07:56 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=476s] Next Episodes And Program 09:06 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=546s] Host Experience And Coaching 10:17 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf-xarTIm2U&t=617s] Wrap Up And Where To Connect Check out the full show notes at https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-141-glp-1-and-blood-sugar-what-perimenopause-women-need-to-know [https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-141-glp-1-and-blood-sugar-what-perimenopause-women-need-to-know] Connect with Cindi Perimenopause Morning Reset — https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningresetpodcast [https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningresetpodcast] Book a Metabolism Consultation — https://cal.com/cindi-stickle/metabolism-consultation [https://cal.com/cindi-stickle/metabolism-consultation] Come hang out in my Facebook Group — https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause [https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause]

Ep. 140 GLP-1 and Perimenopause Nutrition: What Happens When You Skip the Nutrition Foundation (And Why It Matters)

If you started a GLP-1 and something feels off — you're tired, your hair is thinning, the scale has stalled — this episode is going to tell you exactly why that's happening. The medication is doing its job. But GLP-1s don't protect your muscle, stabilize your blood sugar, or tell your body what to pull from when you're eating less. That's the nutrition's job. And most women were never given that piece. In this episode I break down what actually happens to your body on a GLP-1 without the right nutrition foundation — and what your midlife body actually needs to make the medication work. Perfect for women in perimenopause or menopause who are on a GLP-1 and not getting the results they expected. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk] Podcast Mission 01:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=70s] GLP-1 Food Confusion 02:31 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=151s] How GLP-1 Works 02:45 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=165s] Quick Quiz Break 04:21 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=261s] Muscle Loss Risk 04:46 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=286s] Midlife Metabolism Shift 06:14 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=374s] Common Nutrition Mistakes 07:49 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=469s] GLP-1 Nutrition Basics 09:04 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=544s] Side Effects Fixable 09:42 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=582s] Program Invite Wrap-Up 10:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMtX_5fhmbk&t=648s] Final Outro Check out the full show notes and resourses at https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-140-glp-1-and-perimenopause-nutrition-what-happens-when-you-skip-the-nutrition-foundation-and-why-it-matters [https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-140-glp-1-and-perimenopause-nutrition-what-happens-when-you-skip-the-nutrition-foundation-and-why-it-matters] Connect with Cindi Perimenopause Morning Reset — https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningreset [https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningreset] Book a Metabolism Consultation — https://cal.com/cindi-stickle/metabolism-consultation [https://cal.com/cindi-stickle/metabolism-consultation] Come hang out in my Facebook Group — https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause [https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause]

Ep. 139 Perimenopause Habits: Why You Keep Starting Over (And How to Finally Stop)

If you've been starting over every Monday - eating clean for two weeks, then watching it all fall apart - this episode is going to reframe everything you've been telling yourself about why. It's not discipline. It's not willpower. It's not even motivation. It's your foundation. In perimenopause and menopause, your nervous system, your blood sugar, and your cortisol rhythm all shift in ways that make consistency genuinely harder. And no amount of trying harder fixes a foundation problem. In this episode, I break down exactly what's happening in your body, why the habits that worked in your 30s keep falling apart now, and what actually has to come first before anything else can stick. Perfect for the woman in perimenopause or menopause who knows what to do but can't seem to hold onto it — and is tired of blaming herself for it. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU] Podcast Mission 01:09 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=69s] Today's Topic Consistency 02:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=120s] The Start Over Loop 03:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=190s] Not Willpower Biology 03:40 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=220s] Quick Quiz Break 04:29 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=269s] Nervous System Foundation 07:26 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=446s] Perimenopause Stress Biology 10:59 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=659s] Stability Before Habits 13:14 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=794s] Boring Habits That Work 15:34 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=934s] Build Your Foundation 16:57 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=1017s] Morning Reset Offer 17:58 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIPYcsHnUEU&t=1078s] Final Wrap Up Check out the full show notes at https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-139-perimenopause-habits-why-you-keep-starting-over-and-how-to-finally-stop [https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-139-perimenopause-habits-why-you-keep-starting-over-and-how-to-finally-stop] Connect with Cindi Perimenopause Morning Reset — https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningresetpodcast [https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemorningresetpodcast] Book a Metablism Consultation — https://calendly.com/cindistickle/metabolism-consultation [https://calendly.com/cindistickle/metabolism-consultation] Come hang out in my Facebook Group — https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause [https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause]

Ep. 138 Menopause Stress: Why Your Body Can't Handle It Like It Used To (And What to Do About It)

If you've always handled stress well but perimenopause has made everything feel like too much — this episode explains exactly why, and what's actually happening in your body. Stress didn't get harder. Your hormones changed how your body responds to it. In this episode, I break down what chronic cortisol elevation is doing to your blood sugar, sleep, progesterone, and metabolism — and why managing stress in midlife requires a completely different approach than what worked before. Perfect for women in perimenopause or menopause who feel overwhelmed, wired, and can't figure out why their usual coping strategies have stopped working. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8] Podcast Intro 01:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=70s] Today's Stress Topic 01:59 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=119s] Why Stress Hits Harder 03:06 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=186s] Estrogen and HPA Axis 03:47 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=227s] Free Quiz Break 04:36 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=276s] Cortisol Blood Sugar Loop 06:13 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=373s] Sleep and 3AM Wakeups 07:21 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=441s] Progesterone Steal 08:08 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=488s] Thyroid and Belly Fat 08:36 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=516s] Stabilize Blood Sugar 10:03 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=603s] Evening Wind Down 10:27 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=627s] Move Without Overdoing 12:23 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=743s] Nervous System Capacity 12:52 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=772s] Key Takeaway and Next Steps 13:53 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=833s] Wrap Up and Review 14:43 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxya1WkBuf8&t=883s] Outro and Follow Check out the full show notes at https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-138-menopause-stress-why-your-body-cant-handle-it-like-it-used-to-and-what-to-do-about-it [https://cindistickle.com/podcast/ep-138-menopause-stress-why-your-body-cant-handle-it-like-it-used-to-and-what-to-do-about-it] Connect with Cindi Perimenopause Morning Reset — https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemresetpodcast [https://cindistickle.myflodesk.com/nervoussystemresetpodcast] Book a Metabolism Consultation: https://calendly.com/cindistickle/metabolism-consultation [https://calendly.com/cindistickle/metabolism-consultation] Come hang out in my Facebook Group — https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause [https://www.facebook.com/groups/nobsmenopause]
