Perimenopause: It’s Basically Your Toddler Stage… All Over Again
If you’ve ever looked at yourself mid-perimenopause meltdown and thought, “Why am I like this?!” — you are absolutely not alone.

For most of perimenopause, my periods stayed surprisingly regular — predictable enough that I could still plan my training, travel, and energy around them. But over the past six months, that’s changed. Some months my period shows up early, others it disappears completely. And when that rhythm shifted, I felt it everywhere — my energy, my sleep, my workouts, even my mood. It’s wild how much we rely on that internal rhythm without realizing it — until it’s gone.
