Signs You’re in the Transition

Perimenopause isn’t something most of us are prepared for. One day your period seems “normal,” and the next, your cycle length changes, your sleep gets weird, and your patience is MIA. Sound familiar?

Here’s the truth: perimenopause can start as early as your mid-30s (yep, earlier than most of us expect). It’s the transitional season before menopause when your hormones. Estrogen, progesterone, and even cortisol start fluctuating more than usual.

Common signs of perimenopause include:

• Irregular periods (shorter, longer, heavier, lighter — or all of the above!)
• Mood shifts and irritability
• Waking up at 3 a.m. or experiencing vivid dreams
• Changes in libido
• Hot flashes and night sweats

But here’s the reframe: this isn’t your body falling apart. This is your body inviting you to shift how you live. Perimenopause is about stepping into wisdom, redefining boundaries, and prioritizing your needs.

Pro tip: Start tracking your symptoms alongside your cycle in The Agenda. App. Patterns will emerge, and you’ll feel way more in control.

Perimenopause doesn’t have to be a mystery. It’s a new season, and with the right tools, it can be one of the most empowering times of your life.
