Anxiety, Weight Gain, Fatigue? Here’s What’s Really Causing Your Perimenopause Symptoms—And How to Stop Them | Gemma Benad
So many women are being told that perimenopause is all about hormones. But what if the real driver of your symptoms is something else entirely? Gemma Benad has lived through anxiety, heart palpitations, panic attacks, and crushing fatigue, only to discover that what looked like a hormone problem was actually burnout.We talk about why women are more disconnected and stressed than ever, how this fuels weight gain, mood swings, and fatigue, and why we’ve been sold HRT as the one-size-fits-all solution. Gemma shares how safety, nervous system health, and small lifestyle shifts can completely change this experience. This conversation is about helping you feel supported, connected, and in charge of your choices as you move through perimenopause.Key TakeawaysPerimenopause Isn’t a Disease – It’s a transition, and with the right information, it can be powerful.Burnout is the Hidden Root – Stress and disconnection are showing up as the symptoms we blame on hormones.Your Body is Speaking – What we call symptoms are really messages that help guide us back into alignment.Safety Changes Everything – When the nervous system feels safe, weight, energy, and mood begin to shift.Lifestyle is Medicine – Protein, fat, movement, rest, and nervous system care are non-negotiables.Informed Choice is Key – Whether you choose HRT or not, it should come from empowerment, not fear.Where to Find Our GuestGemma Benad’s Website: https://stan.store/gemmabenadLinks & Resources🎁 Nook Sauna Sale: Extra $100 Off for Better Sleep & RecoverySauna-curious?
