Midlife isn’t a crisis.

But the way women are treated in midlife can be.

When your hormones shift, your body changes and suddenly society hands you a new job description: stay small, stay quiet, stay young.

No thank you.

In this episode of Hormones and Heels, Sandra Cohen (functional nutritionist and root cause hormone practitioner) and Shabrina Kara (stylist and image consultant specialising in confidence and visibility) talk about what no one tells midlife women: the physical realities of perimenopause and menopause body change and the cultural pressure that makes it feel like failure.

We unpack the GLP 1 conversation through a midlife lens, not from fear, not from hype, but from truth.

What matters for muscle, digestion, energy, and long-term health if you’re considering this route or you're already on it, and why a “quick fix” can quietly become an identity.

This is your permission slip to stop negotiating with your worth.

Because this chapter isn’t about disappearing.

It’s about coming home to yourself, from the inside out.
