66. Feeling Burnt Out in Your 40s? Here's What Your Body Actually Needs

Feeling more tired, anxious, or irritable in your 40s—but still pushing through like you always have? In this episode, Claudia shares why the "hustle mode" that may have worked in your 30s starts to backfire in perimenopause–and what to do instead.

She opens up about the personal changes she's made to her daily and weekly rhythm, and walks you through 5 simple, doable practices to help you preserve energy, regulate your nervous system, and feel more like yourself again.

This isn't about doing nothing. It's about moving through life with intention, clarity, and ease, especially in a body that's changing.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why women in their 40s become more stress-sensitive
• How pushing through, over-scheduling, and constant "doing" impacts your symptoms
• Real-life shifts Claudia made to stop burning herself out (and how you can too)
• 5 simple practices to reduce anxiety, feel more grounded, and prioritize what matters
• How pleasure, nature, and movement support hormonal health in midlife
• A reframe on slowing down as a strategy for productivity and well-being
