88. Stop Overcomplicating Health After 40: Here's What Women in Perimenopause Need First

Tired, bloated, moody, or not like yourself? Before you assume it's mold, Lyme, or some complicated "root cause", it might be time to get back to the basics.

In this episode, Claudia shares what women in perimenopause truly need to focus on first to start feeling better. She breaks down why functional medicine sometimes leads to fear and confusion, and how to simplify your approach, so your body can finally heal and thrive in your 40s and beyond.

What You'll Learn:

The truth about why women over 40 overcomplicate their health (and what to do instead)
The key foundations your body needs before diving into expensive testing or complicated protocols
Why your body can't heal if it doesn't feel safe, nourished, or rested
The role of discipline, consistency, and nervous system regulation in real healing
When it's actually time to explore deeper root causes like gut issues or chronic infections
