Perimenopause isn’t the villain our overloaded lives are.
In this candid HealthYouniversity conversation with Emily Sadri, we connect the dots between postpartum expectations, perimenopause, body image modeling, boundaries, codependency, alcohol-as-coping, and true self-care. If you’re tired of “just push through,” this is your permission slip to protect your physiology and redesign life around your values.

What you’ll learn (fast):
Why early separation + pressure to “bounce back” fuels burnout later
The difference between self-care vs. numbing (wine, people-pleasing, overworking)
How mothers model body image and self-talk to daughters (and sons)
Why women are not mini men: cyclical hormones ≠ Groundhog Day
Boundaries, values, and designing a lifestyle that supports hormones
A real-life burnout story (pneumonia at work) and what finally changed

Quick Q&A
Q: Is perimenopause just hormones?
A: Hormones matter but life load, stress, and boundaries are the accelerants.
Q: Why do I feel guilty saying no?
A: Social conditioning + codependency. Recenter on your values and energy budget.
Q: Is wine really a problem?
A: If it’s a coping strategy, it can blunt sleep/energy and worsen hormonal symptoms.
Q: Where do I start?
A: Audit your week for energy leaks, set non-negotiables (sleep, food, movement), and build micro-boundaries around family/work/social life.
