Are you exhausted even after a full night's sleep? Do you find yourself waking up between 1 and 4 AM, struggling with brain fog, afternoon energy crashes, stubborn weight gain, or feeling like your body has changed overnight?

 

In this first episode of The Inspired Wellness Method Summer Series, Michelle and Tab talk about why sleep is the foundation of health for women navigating perimenopause and menopause—and why improving sleep quality may be the missing piece in your wellness journey.

 

You'll learn what's happening inside your body while you sleep, how hormonal changes impact sleep during midlife, and six practical strategies you can start using today to improve sleep quality, support hormone balance, and wake up feeling more energized.

If you've been told that poor sleep is simply part of getting older, this episode will challenge that belief and give you actionable steps to start feeling better.
