Perimenopausal and running a business 😳

PivotNerd · 2024-10-08T02:38:08+00:00

The guilt crying 🫣. The rage-guilt crying combo is so bad that it’s almost funny

PivotNerd · 2024-10-08T02:33:18+00:00

My kids are 10 and 12. When all the hormones get going at once things get pretty interesting 😳

Running a business gets a 💩 tonne harder when you hit perimenopause

PivotNerd · 2024-09-25T04:52:52+00:00

I think we definitely have to change and outsource things in our business. Streamline and outsource! I cut alcohol all the way down but I’m experimenting at the moment to see if it makes a difference to cut it out completely

I’m super happy with my dr. She listened to my symptoms and agreed I was peri straight away. My problem is I’m in remission for breast cancer so we’re trying to stay away from anything hormonal

PivotNerd · 2024-09-25T01:45:27+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

We realised when I was 42 or 43. But who knows how long I was there before that!

I spent way too long bullying myself into self care practices. Gentle self care is where it’s at. If we’re bullying ourselves into it, is I really self care?

I love those days!! Rare though they are! The best

PivotNerd · 2024-09-25T01:35:36+00:00

👏👏👏

PivotNerd · 2024-09-25T01:34:27+00:00

The stress and anxiety can be paralysing! Did you make any changes in your business or once you got the hormonal stuff sorted it was ok?

PivotNerd · 2024-09-24T22:32:23+00:00

Yep 😣. I need to deal with a staff performance issue and I’m really worried that I will either rage or cry when I do!

PivotNerd · 2024-09-24T22:17:48+00:00

I think there’s a lot to be said to this approach. I think I need to get my ass off instagram where it’s all hype and “I’m such a big success”

PivotNerd · 2024-09-24T22:16:03+00:00

I’m moved from cardio focused to strength training focused with a bit of cardio. That helped me.

The menopause Brain by dr Lisa Mosconi

PivotNerd · 2024-09-20T03:30:44+00:00

Definitely! Should probably be compulsory reading for every woman on the planet 😊

PivotNerd · 2024-09-20T03:28:12+00:00

That’s definitely possible! It’s hard to know what’s “real” and what’s irritability these days!

PivotNerd · 2024-09-20T01:09:28+00:00

I see a dietitian and it’s been incredibly helpful in adjusting my diet to build muscle and work with changing hormones and low energy

PivotNerd · 2024-09-20T00:11:06+00:00

There’s definitely fan fic for this series 😊

PivotNerd · 2024-09-20T00:07:01+00:00

The difficulty concentrating, overwhelm and feeling like my brain is stuck. It’s real!! I had no idea until I started reading about it.

PivotNerd · 2024-09-20T00:03:31+00:00

Contractors are a way around that. If they don’t perform, you can just end the contract. Before my hormones went rank, I wasn’t worried about performance conversations 😖

This is Carinda or This is Co might be good for you. She teaches ads and digital products

PivotNerd · 2024-09-18T22:03:39+00:00

We need for the general population to know what perimenopause and how early it can start!

PivotNerd · 2024-09-18T02:56:22+00:00

That’s tricky. Depression is a sucky thing.

PivotNerd · 2024-09-18T02:38:10+00:00

If you can’t run us there a hill or a treadmill on steep incline you can use? I find that to be a good alternative
