What if one of the biggest deficiencies affecting women in perimenopause isn't magnesium, protein, or hormones? What if it's pleasure?

In this episode, we're exploring a concept that doesn't get talked about nearly enough: pleasure deficiency.

If you're exhausted, overwhelmed, doing all the right things, and still feeling stuck, this conversation may completely change the way you think about your health.

You'll learn how stress impacts weight loss, hormones, sleep, and energy, why vacations often seem to "fix" symptoms temporarily, and how reconnecting with joy can become a practical part of your healing journey.

Tune in to discover why pleasure isn't a luxury. It's physiology.
