In this episode of Fitter Leaner Stronger Over 40, host Carey Adam breaks down everything you need to understand about perimenopause—the update “reverse puberty” phase that can last anywhere from a few years up to a decade. You’ll learn: * What perimenopause really is and why it’s a natural, healthy transition * Common signs and symptoms, from cycle changes and hot flashes to brain fog and muscle loss * Why these shifts happen (hint: it’s all about hormone receptors in every cell) * How modern life amplifies symptoms, from chronic stress and sleep debt to rushed nutrition * The biggest misconceptions, like why “eat less, move more” falls short * Urgent stats you need to know—muscle loss rates, metabolic syndrome, heart-disease risks, and more * Key questions to ask your doctor and the lab tests that can guide your next steps * Why perimenopause is your invitation to radical self-care, not a sentence to decline Whether you’re just starting to notice irregular periods or deep into hormone upheaval, this episode gives you the clarity and practical context you need to take charge of your health—one hormone-savvy step at a time. Tune in and discover why now is the time to build your strongest foundation yet!

You’re coping. Let’s change that — together.
