5 Clues About Why You’re Exhausted That You and Your Doctor Might Be Missing

Sarah McLachlan Episode 94

It’s 3 p.m. and your third (or is it fourth?!) coffee isn’t even touching the sides. You’re bone-tired, feeling like you’re living in a fog, no matter how much you sleep, it never feels like enough. (Though let’s be honest, in perimenopause, decent sleep feels like a fantasy anyway!)

If you feel like you’re dragging yourself through mud day after day, and your blood tests look normal, these 5 clues might finally explain why.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Why “normal” blood tests miss the real reasons for your crushing fatigue
  • 5 hidden drivers of exhaustion in perimenopause
  • What you can actually do to change things without giving up your whole life

This episode will help you connect the dots behind that relentless, no-matter-how-much-you-sleep exhaustion, and give you practical, doable ideas to get your spark back and feel more like your usual self again.

SNEAK PEEK:

“…too often, feeling tired is dismissed as 'standard' for women, especially those over 40 in perimenopause or menopause. Even when tests are run, standard blood test ranges catch full-blown diseases, not the subtle shifts affecting your energy, mood, and metabolism years before a clear diagnosis.”

If you’re done dragging yourself through each day on autopilot, this is your chance to figure out what’s actually going on.

🎧 Listen now to learn the 5 clues behind your perimenopause exhaustion, and what to do about them so you can finally feel like yourself again.
