Hormones and Heels šŸ‘ 

Trudie German

You are a high-performing woman in your 40s. You are showing up for everything and everyone. But something has shifted. The exhaustion that sleep does not fix. The brain fog in the meetings you used to own. The weight that will not move. The not feeling like yourself anymore. You are not imagining it. You are not falling apart. You are in perimenopause. And nobody prepared you for what that actually looks like. Hormones and Heels is for the woman who refuses to accept that this is just how it is now. Every episode is an honest unfiltered conversation about what perimenopause is actually doing

    Episode 27: You Are So Tired You Can Barely Function. So Why Can You Not Fall Asleep at Night?

    Perimenopause Nervous System Why You Are Tired But Wired and Cannot Sleep at Night We talk a lot about hormones in perimenopause. But we are not talking enough about your nervous system. And your nervous system might be the missing piece. In this episode I explain what your nervous system is, what perimenopause is doing to it, and why things that used to work intermittent fasting, cold plunges, high intensity training, pushing through on no sleep are now making your sleep worse not better. Not because those things are bad. Because your hormonal buffers are gone and your nervous system needs a different approach right now. This is the episode that finally explains why you are doing everything right and still feeling terrible.

    Perimenopause and Relationships How Perimenopause Affects Your Partner and What Neither of You Knew Perimenopause does not just affect you. It affects your relationship.

And what happens in relationships when the woman starts feeling like herself again. This is the episode nobody is having. And it is the one you need.

    Episode 23: You Are Taking All the Supplements the Gurus Told You to Take. But You Are Still Exhausted. Still Bloated. Still Not Sleeping. Here Is Why.

    Perimenopause Supplements ā€” Why You Are Still Exhausted and Bloated Even When You Are Taking Everything You are taking your supplements consistently. You spent real money on them. And you are still exhausted. Still bloated. Still not sleeping. In this episode I tell you exactly why. Supplements cannot fix a lifestyle problem. Stress is cancelling out everything you are taking. And if the foundation is not there your body cannot absorb or use any of it. I also break down which supplements actually have a place in perimenopause ;vitamin D, magnesium, B complex, iron, fish oil, creatine, protein supplements, prebiotics, and probiotics and which ones to approach with serious caution including melatonin, ashwagandha, DHEA, and collagen. This is the most honest supplements conversation in the perimenopause space.

    Episode 22: You Are Eating Less. Working Out More And Your Waist Keeps Growing. It May Not Be What You Think

    You are eating less. Working out more. And your waist keeps growing. In this episode I break down the three completely different things that cause belly changes in perimenopause. Actual fat gain from caloric imbalance. Cortisol belly driven by chronically elevated stress hormones. And inflammation and water retention from sleep deprivation. I also give you the specific questions to ask yourself to identify which type or combination you are dealing with. Each one has a different root cause and a different solution. This is the episode that finally explains why nothing you have been trying has worked.

    Episode 20: Why Perimenopause Tips Are Keeping You Stuck And What to Do Instead

    Why Perimenopause Tips Are Keeping You Stuck And What to Do Instead  You have been consuming perimenopause content for months. Saving every post. Watching every reel. And doing almost none of it. Not because you are lazy. Because tips without context and support were never going to be enough.  In this episode I go deep into why the content is not working. Why you are confused and overwhelmed and afraid to start. Why trying to DIY your way through perimenopause alone is the very thing keeping you stuck. And what actually changes when you have the right support.  This episode is for the woman who has tried everything and still has not found her way forward. The answer is not another tip. It is someone in your corner.  Topics covered in this episode:  ā€¢ Why saving perimenopause content is not the same as implementing it  ā€¢ Why conflicting information is keeping you stuck not helping you  ā€¢ The emotional reason you have not started and why it is not your fault  ā€¢ Why perimenopause cannot be DIYed with tips alone  ā€¢ What is actually different when you have the right support  I'M READY TO FEEL LIKE MYSELF AGAIN ā ā ā šŸ“§trudie@glowwithtrudie.com Follow on INSTAGRAMā ā ā ā ā ā ā  Subscribe to Hormones & Heels, share this episode with afriend going through perimenopause SCHEDULE MY FEEL LIKE MYSELF AGAIN CALL

    Episode 21: She Was Doing Everything Right. Intermittent Fasting. Fasted Workouts. Eating Less. And She Was Getting Worse. Here Is What Was Actually Happening.

    She was doing everything right. Fasting 18 hours a day. Fasted workouts every morning. Eating less than ever. And she was gaining more fat, waking up at 2AM, and more exhausted than she had ever been. In this episode I walk through exactly what was happening in her body and why everything she was doing was working against her in perimenopause. The fat gain. The broken sleep. The depleted workouts. The slowing metabolism. And what we did together to turn it around. If you are in perimenopause doing intermittent fasting and wondering why it has stopped working this episode is for you.
