Ep. 91 | Perimenopause Burnout: Why You're Exhausted, Foggy, and Unmotivated in Midlife
You used to be the one who held it all together. Now you can barely hold a thought.
The motivation is gone. The energy is gone. You're foggy, flat, and running on coffee and sheer stubbornness — and even that's starting to fail. You're not lazy. You're not depressed. And this isn't just "getting older."
This is midlife burnout. And it's real.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:
Why midlife burnout hits differently than regular burnout — and what perimenopause and menopause have to do with it
How shifting hormones and a dysregulated nervous system create the perfect storm of exhaustion, brain fog, and zero motivation
Why rest alone isn't fixing it — and what your body actually needs instead
The difference between being tired and being burnt out at a biological level
Where to start when you feel like you have nothing left to give
This isn't a pep talk. It's a real explanation of what's happening inside your body and why pushing through isn't the answer anymore.
This episode is for you if: You're a woman over 40 who feels like a shell of who she used to be — exhausted, unmotivated, foggy — and you're tired of people telling you to just rest more or think positive. You need someone to explain what's actually going on.
