S3E3 Resistance to change in your 40s and how to overcome it

Age with Intention

We know what it's good for us. We know there are some things we need to create or to be different in our life, whether it's eating differently or whether it's exercising more or looking after ourselves and our stress levels. And yet we are not doing them. What the heck?
In this episode, Ags discusses the common theme of resistance, particularly as it pertains to perimenopause and health-related changes. We dive into the natural ways of why resistance shows up when making lifestyle changes, the role of hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause on motivation and energy levels, and the societal pressures that can exacerbate these challenges. I feel like it's a topic that often gets missed, but if you experience resistance to change in your 40, know that it is NORMAL! (I literally experienced it as I was recording THIS episode ;)).
Ags also shares practical strategies for overcoming resistance, including self-awareness, setting clear and manageable goals, and creating a supportive environment. By understanding these complexities, you can better navigate changes and invite a little more self-care and understanding into your perimenopause journey.
