Beat Menopause Bloating: Daily Movement That Works

Épisode 4

dimanche 22 juin 2025 • Durée 15:31

Feeling bloated, constipated, or just off?
Your gut might be crying out for movement—but not the intense, sweaty kind.

In this episode of The Perimenopause Gutsy Talk Podcast, we explore the second pillar in the 3M Method: MOVEMENT—and why small, gentle actions can make a big difference to your digestion, hormones, and energy.

Why your gut responds so well to movement (hint: it’s like an internal massage)
What happens in my own body when I skip it—hello bloating, sluggish bowels, and reflux
Real-life client stories: from constipation to regularity with 10-minute walks
How intense exercise might be making things worse
The sneaky benefits of squats, walks, and brushing-your-teeth balance
What to try if you’re tired, unmotivated, or just don’t have 40 minutes

Your gut doesn’t need you to be a gym goddess—it just needs you to move a little, often, and kindly.

Épisode 6

dimanche 20 juillet 2025 • Durée 17:23

Confused about fibre? You’re not alone — especially if you’re in perimenopause and navigating IBS, bloating, constipation, or a sluggish gut.

In this first episode of the 3-part Fibre Series, we’re going back to basics: what fibre actually is, why it matters so much in midlife (especially for women with IBS), and the three main types of fibre you need to know about — including the one that feeds your gut bugs and supports your immune system, mood, and more.

You’ll also hear about:

My surprising experience trying to hit 30g of fibre while travelling
Why fibre might be even more important than protein in midlife
How menopause, hormone shifts, and gut sensitivity change what “healthy eating” looks like
Why the “30 plant points” trend is helpful — but also risky if your gut isn’t ready

We’ll also talk about why most women fall short of their fibre goals — and how to build back gently, without IBS flares.
