🎄 Countdown to Christmas: Feeling Festive or Frazzled? 🎅
Let’s Talk About Energy Swings During Perimenopause 🎄🎅
With Christmas just around the corner, the pressure is on, shopping, wrapping, cooking, socialising… it’s a lot! 🤪
And when you’re navigating perimenopause & beyond on top of it all, you might be feeling the energy rollercoaster in full force. 😩
One day you’re ticking off the to-do list like a festive superhero, and the next, you’re completely wiped out, wondering how you’ll get through it all.
It’s not just “Christmas burnout” these wild energy swings are a classic part of perimenopause. Oestrogen, progesterone, and cortisol are shifting in unpredictable ways, and your nervous system is likely feeling the strain.
But here’s a reminder you might need to hear today: You don’t have to push through it. Resting isn’t lazy, it’s necessary.
Saying no to an invite isn’t selfish, it’s self-care. And if you need to do Christmas at 70% instead of 100%, that’s perfectly OK too. 🤗
If your energy is on that “two weeks good, two weeks rough” cycle, or if you’re just feeling totally spent, try focusing on small, simple wins:
💜 Prioritise rest where you can, even 10 minutes to yourself can help.
💚 Keep blood sugar balanced by pairing carbs with protein & healthy fats.
💜 Swap “all-or-nothing” thinking for “what’s good enough for today?”
🎄 How are you feeling as we count down to Christmas?
Festive or frazzled?
Drop a comment and let’s support each other. You’re definitely not alone in this!

Feeling Like You’re Losing Track of Yourself?
Perimenopause can feel like a whirlwind, one moment you’re fine, the next, you’re battling fatigue, brain fog, or a surge of unexpected emotions.
It’s easy to dismiss symptoms or chalk them up to “just getting older,” but keeping track can reveal so much about what’s really going on.
Symptom tracking isn’t just about filling in boxes, it’s about taking charge of your health. When you track your physical, emotional, and even sleep patterns, you start to see connections that can guide how you care for yourself. It also gives you clear, helpful data to share with your doctor, making conversations about HRT, lifestyle changes, or other treatments so much easier.
If you’ve been wondering where to start, I’ve created a set of free, easy-to-use trackers designed to help you understand and manage your symptoms. From hot flushes to night sweats, mood swings to bladder control, these trackers cover it all.
Click the link below to download your FREE symptom trackers today and start taking back control of your well-being.
You deserve to feel empowered and supported through this journey!
Jo 💚💜

Ever feel like you’re the only one going through this rollercoaster of symptoms, emotions, and changes? 😟
It can be easy to feel isolated, especially when it seems like no one around you truly understands what you’re experiencing. 🫣
That’s where having a supportive community can make all the
difference. 😊
In my group, Perimenopause & Beyond, Creating Midlife Harmony with Jo Douglas, you’ll find women who get it, who are facing the same ups and downs, and who are there to listen, share, and lift each other up.
We talk about managing symptoms, navigating the changes, and even embracing this phase as an opportunity for growth and self-discovery. 🥰
When you’re surrounded by people who know exactly what you’re going through, it becomes so much easier to face each day with confidence. You don’t have to do this alone. 👭
Ready to join a community that understands?

The Superpower of Microgreens and Sprouts:
Nutritional Boost for Perimenopause and Beyond!
As we move through perimenopause and beyond, it becomes more important than ever to nourish our bodies with the right foods to support hormone balance, energy levels, and overall well-being.
Both microgreens and sprouts are packed with nutrients that can make a real difference during midlife. These tiny plants are harvested early in their growth cycle, which means their nutrient levels are 40 X compared to their fully grown versions.
Whether you're dealing with fatigue, bone health concerns, or hormonal fluctuations, these little greens and sprouts offer big benefits. Here's how they can support you during this phase of life:
💜 Hormonal Support: Micro-greens and sprouts, especially from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, contain phytoestrogens and indole-3-carbinol, compounds that naturally help balance oestrogen. This can ease some of the hormonal shifts and symptoms like hot flashes or mood swings that come with perimenopause.
💚 Muscle Support: As we age, we naturally start to lose muscle mass, which can affect our metabolism and strength. The protein in microgreens and sprouts, especially in varieties like lentil, chickpea, and alfalfa sprouts, can help maintain and rebuild muscle tissue, which is key to staying active and strong.
💜 Bone Strength: During perimenopause, we start to lose bone density, which can continue into menopause. Both microgreens and sprouts are rich in calcium and vitamin K, key nutrients that help maintain bone health and prevent osteoporosis.
💚 Energy Boost: B vitamins, found abundantly in sprouts like alfalfa and microgreens like spinach, are known for supporting energy production. This is essential if you're feeling drained or fatigued, as many of us do during perimenopause.
💜 Digestive Health: Sprouts are particularly high in enzymes that aid digestion, helping you absorb more nutrients from your food. This is especially important during midlife when digestion can slow down or become more sluggish.
💚 Fight Inflammation: Microgreens, like radish and red cabbage, and sprouts like lentils, are loaded with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. These can help reduce inflammation, which is often linked to joint pain and other age-related health issues.
💜 Cognitive Support: Many microgreens and sprouts are high in vitamins C and E, which help improve brain function and fight the brain fog that so many of us experience in perimenopause. Clearer thinking and better memory can be just one more reason to add these to your meals!
Incorporating microgreens and sprouts into your diet is easy. You can sprinkle them on salads, blend them into smoothies, or use them as toppings for soups and sandwiches. Because they're so nutrient-dense, even a small handful can have a big impact on your health. If you're curious about how to grow these incredible superfoods right in the corner of your kitchen, join my FREE support group, where I host a demo with the lovely Ania, an expert in this field and my Midlife Harmony Retreat Co-host, showing you just how easy it is to grow microgreens and sprouts at home, no garden required!
Let's make this simple, healthy habit part of your daily routine. Link to the group in my bio and in the comments 👇

Have you ever felt like you exist only for what you do for others, rather than for who you are? 💜💚
It’s a painful reality so many of us face, pouring ourselves into our families, partners, and responsibilities, only to feel invisible, like nothing we do is ever enough.
You apologise for your mistakes, own up to every flaw, yet the good you do gets overlooked. The love you give seems to get taken for granted, and after a while, it feels like you don’t exist beyond your duties. You become a shell of the person you once were, running on empty, questioning your worth.
I have so many clients feeling like this when they are going through a difficult hormonal transition. 😔
But here’s the truth: you deserve to exist for yourself, not just for the people you care for. You are not just valuable because of what you give; you are valuable simply for being you.
If this resonates with you, it’s time to make a change. Start by asking yourself, "What do ‘I’ need?" and recognise that your well-being is as important as anyone else's.
Setting boundaries may feel uncomfortable at first, but it's necessary. You deserve to be seen, to be loved, and to be cared for, just as you are.
Today , take one small step towards reclaiming your space. Whether it's journaling about your own needs, saying “no” to something that feels overwhelming, or simply taking five minutes for yourself, do something ‘just for you’.
You deserve that, and so much more. Let’s start making this change together. Jo 💚💜
