Postpartum Recovery After 38 - Supporting Insulin, Hormones and Long-Term Health

Postpartum recovery after 38 is not just about healing from birth. It is about protecting your metabolism, stabilizing insulin, and understanding the hormonal shifts that can quietly influence your long-term health. In this episode, you’ll learn what most providers are not routinely testing, how nutrition and muscle mass impact recovery, and the small daily habits that build resilience for the years ahead. Sarah is joined by Megan Pfiffner, perimenopause nutrition expert and creator of the Perimenopause Matrix™, who brings a data-driven, systems-based approach to helping women reclaim their energy and hormonal balance.
