Part 2: How to Fix Your Metabolism After 45

Feel like your metabolism just isn’t responding the way it used to? You’re not imagining it! In this episode, we’re breaking down the barometer side of metabolism—because it’s not *just* about calories in, calories out. Stress, hormones, and gut health all play a massive role in how your body burns energy, stores fat, and feels on a daily basis.

We’ll cover:
✅ How chronic stress & high cortisol lead to belly fat (*even if you're eating well!*)
✅ Why insulin resistance sneaks up in midlife & what to do about it
✅ The gut-metabolism connection & how poor digestion can slow fat loss
✅ Simple, science-backed strategies to support metabolism in menopause

If you’re in midlife and wondering why the same diet and workouts aren’t working anymore, this episode is a must-listen. We’re ditching the outdated just eat less and move more advice and getting into what actually works for women 40+ who want to feel energized, strong, and in control of their health.
