    #139 - A Refreshingly Calm Clarification of Fasted Training Nuances Specific to Female Runners

    What if the workout habit you thought was helping your body is actually making perimenopause harder? In this episode, Louise Valentine, one of the world’s leading exercise physiologists and women's integrative health practitioners, gives a clear, honest breakdown of why fasted training may not be the best fit for active women, especially runners navigating changing hormones, stress, cravings, sleep issues, and body composition goals. Louise explains how morning workouts, low fuel, caffeine nuances, and high cortisol can stack up quickly for ambitious women who are already juggling a lot. She shares why a small amount of protein and carbs before training can help support hormone production, energy, recovery, mental health, and long-term performance. She also challenges the confusing noise online around women’s health, HRT, cortisol, and perimenopause trends, reminding listeners that context matters. This episode is especially useful for women who run, lift, train early, struggle with cravings, wake up at night, feel burned out, or feel stuck despite doing “everything right.” Louise keeps the message grounded in solid female-specific science: fuel your body, stop punishing and potentially harming yourself, and make choices that support your long-term health, energy, and ability to run strong for life.

In this episode, Louise Valentine, leading expert for perimenopausal active women and runners, welcomes Jen back to unpack her unexpected victory at the Cleveland Half Marathon, a race run in brutal heat, humidity, and direct sun.  What started as a “just have fun” race turned into a powerful lesson in hormone-supportive training, smarter recovery, strategic fueling and trusting a less-is-more running approach. Louise and Jen share how Breaking Through Wellness's strategic strength training, sleep, nervous system support, pre-race hydration, simple fueling, mobility, and 30-second burst strategies empowered Jen to stay strong when the race got hard. They also talk about redefining what a PR really means, especially for women running through perimenopause, life stress, and changing energy needs.  This episode is a reminder that running does not have to feel punishing to be powerful.

    #137 - How to Know When Exercise & Running is No Longer a Productive Way to Manage Stress

    Your body often tells the truth before your mind is ready to admit it. In this episode of Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause, Louise Valentine, a leading expert for perimenopausal active women and runners, shares a deeply personal look at what happens when major life stress collides with fitness, hormones, running, and midlife health. Through her own experience with devastating family news, interrupted sleep, inflammation, gut changes, low energy, and emotional overload, Louise explains why pushing harder is not always the answer, especially during perimenopause. Listeners will learn how to recognize when the body is reaching its stress tipping point, why exercise can become counterproductive when cortisol is already high, and how to adjust workouts, fueling, recovery, and lifestyle habits with more care. Louise also shares practical tools like eating more when sleep is disrupted, scaling back intensity, foam rolling with calming music, red light therapy, family connection, therapy, and brain spotting. This episode is a powerful reminder that resilience is not always about doing more. Sometimes, it starts with slowing down before your body forces you to.

    In this episode, Louise Valentine, one of the world’s leading perimenopause experts, continues part three of her Ultimate Perimenopause Masterclass for ambitious active women and female runners. She explains why exercise recovery, strategic adjustments in strength training, running, nutrition, and environmental exposure matter even more as hormones shift.  Louise shares why women over 35 need smarter fueling, more intentional lifting, better recovery, and less “run yourself into the ground” thinking to protect muscle, bone density, hormones, and long-term health. She also talks about the importance of strength training for longevity, injury prevention, body composition, and staying active for life. Later, Louise covers detox myths, air quality, product ingredients, alcohol, processed foods, and simple ways to reduce toxic load without living in fear or extremes.  This episode is a clear reminder that hormone changes do not have to mean decline, frustrating symptoms or setbacks. With the right plan and education, women can feel strong, run well, and age with power.

    You were never meant to lose strength, energy, muscle, and confidence just because your hormones started changing!  In this episode of Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause, Louise Valentine, a leading expert for perimenopausal active women and runners, breaks down how perimenopause can affect fat storage, protein absorption, blood sugar, recovery, running performance, and injury risk. She challenges the outdated belief that women are destined to lose muscle, see our body composition, health, fitness, and bones decline with age. She explains why the right tools, fueling strategy, strength work, and hormone-supportive nutrition can change the outcome - and how it is for hundreds of women throughout the world. Louise also explains why active women need more high-quality protein compared to the general population, why low-carb dieting and fasted training backfire, and how blood sugar crashes most often show up as fatigue, cravings, night sweats, poor sleep, or stubborn belly fat. This episode is especially useful for female runners and active women over 35 who want to understand their changing bodies without fear, confusion, misleading fads, or extreme rules.  Most importantly, this episode is a reminder that your body is not broken. It just needs a smarter strategy for this new phase of life.  This is the conversation every active woman over 35 should hear - because understanding that's happening changes everything.

    #134 - Part 1: The Ultimate Perimenopause Masterclass for Ambitious Active Women & Runners: It Starts in Our 30s - Here's What You Need to Know!

    Your body is not failing you. However, it is likely asking you to change the way you fuel, train, and live to support it as your hormones change. In this episode of Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause, Louise Valentine, a multi award-winning women's integrative health practitioner, exercise physiologist and performance scientist, gives an honest, fiery overview of what active women and runners need to understand about perimenopause, hormone shifts, cortisol, belly bloat, energy crashes, sleep issues, gut health, and stubborn body composition changes.  She explains why many women feel frustrated when the usual advice around running, dieting, fasting, supplements, or even general medical support does not fully address what is happening in their changing bodies. Louise also shares why ambitious, fitness-minded women often notice symptoms earlier because they are so tuned in to performance, recovery, strength, digestion, and mood. This episode helps listeners see that hormone havoc is not something to ignore or “push through.” With the right education, fueling, training, and stress support, women can work with their female physiology instead of against it and keep feeling strong, energized, and capable as they age.

    #133: The Art of Knowing How & When to Pivot Your Fitness, Physique & Running Goals in Midlife

    What happens when the goal you once wanted starts costing you the life, energy, long-term health or body composition results you actually want? In this relatable episode, Louise, one of the world’s leading exercise physiologists, health, and performance scientists, welcomes Jen back for a conversation about midlife fitness, perimenopause, running goals, family stress, and learning when to pivot. They share how training for the Cleveland half marathon became harder than expected, not because they were doing anything “wrong,” but because life, hormones, recovery, and stress started to collide. Louise and Jen talk about the importance of listening to your body, watching signs like energy, HRV, inflammation, thyroid symptoms, and loss of joy in training. They explore why chasing a PR is not always worth it if it comes at the cost of health, physique changes, improving strength, family connection, or long-term wellness. This episode is a powerful reminder that midlife fitness is not about quitting. It is about adjusting with wisdom.  Listeners will walk away encouraged to honor their current season, protect their energy, and build a fitness plan that supports strength, joy, hormones, and longevity.

    #132 - Is it Possible to Achieve Peak Fitness in Mid-Life? Yes! Here Are 4 Ways

    Great News: Your strongest, most fit, capable, lean, and healthy body isn't behind you - It's just getting started! In this episode, Louise Valentine, one of the world’s leading women's integrative health, fitness and performance experts, breaks down whether women can truly return to peak fitness in midlife, especially through perimenopause and menopause. Her answer is yes, but it simply requires redefining what “peak” means relative to working with your changing female physiology. Instead of chasing old PRs or forcing the same training methods from your 20s and 30s, Louise encourages women to build a body that is strong, energized, injury-resistant, and able to support the vibrant, active life they want for decades. She explains why female runners and active women need to work with their changing hormones, not against them. That includes smarter fueling, strength training, stress and cortisol management, sleep, gut health, and realistic running goals. Louise also challenges the idea that weight loss is the goal, reminding listeners that body recomposition, muscle, bone health, and functional strength matter far more than the number on the scale. This episode is for any woman who wants to feel strong, capable, fit, and confident in midlife without burning herself out.
