189: Armour Weight, Perimenopause & Consistency

Armour Weight, Perimenopause & Why Consistency Is Different Now Most women think they have a consistency problem. They don’t. They have an Armour Weight™ problem . In this episode, Lisa explains why perimenopause changes the rules of wellness and why the strategies that worked in your 20s and 30s often stop working in midlife. Drawing from her book Unarmoured , she explores how years of stress, survival, emotional labour, and hormonal shifts can lead the body to hold protective “armour” that resists traditional diet and fitness approaches. The solution isn’t more discipline. It’s a layered approach that works with your biology, psychology, and spiritual rhythms. As Lisa writes: “There’s a kind of weight no workout or diet can touch… it’s the weight of expectation, shame, loss and survival. It’s the Armour Weight™ we wear.” In This Episode • Why consistency changes in perimenopause • How stress and survival shape the body in midlife • The myth of “more discipline” • The Wellness Alchemy Triquetra™: biology, psychology and spirituality • Why transformation in midlife requires alignment, not more effort Ready for a Different Approach?
