Why Pushing Harder Stops Working in Perimenopause (and What to Do Instead) 01/06/2026

From Burnout to Wise Woman Energy: A New Way Forward in 2026 12/30/2025

From Burnout to Wise Woman Energy: A New Way Forward in 2026 Wise Woman Energy: Listening Differently at the Threshold of a New Year As the year comes to a close, many women find themselves standing in a quiet in-between tired, reflective, and sensing that the old ways of pushing and powering through no longer work. In this episode, Andrea invites you into the liminal space between what has been and what’s emerging, naming burnout not as a failure, but as a wise, body-based message. This conversation speaks directly to women in perimenopause who are “doing all the right things” yet still feel off, exhausted, or disconnected from their bodies. Together, we explore what Wise Woman Energy truly means: rhythm over hustle, strength with recovery, stillness as power, and devotion to the body instead of control. Andrea shares how perimenopause amplifies the cost of overgiving and overtraining, and why this season of life often brings grief alongside profound initiation as old strategies fall away. Through the lens of seasonal living and nervous system safety, this episode reframes rest, nourishment, and intuition as essential, not optional. This episode also gently opens the door to what’s possible in 2026 a year rooted in sustainability rather than self-sacrifice. Listeners are invited to imagine training with their hormones, resting without guilt, nourishing instead of restricting, and asking for support along the way. The episode closes with a simple reflective ritual and a soft invitation to explore deeper support through January offerings designed to help women listen differently and move forward with wisdom and care. In this episode, you’ll hear about: ✨ Why burnout is a body message, not a mindset problem ✨ How perimenopause changes the rules and why that’s not a failure ✨ What Wise Woman Energy really looks like in daily life ✨ The grief and initiation that come when old strategies stop working ✨ Reimagining health, strength, and rest as we step into a new year If your body is asking for a different way forward, this episode is an invitation to pause, listen, and remember the wisdom already within you.

Kristina Masyte on Evolving Through Yoga Episode Overview In this episode, Andrea is joined by Kristina Masyte for a grounded and thoughtful conversation on what it means to evolve through yoga. Together, they explore yoga as a living, breathing practice—one that matures alongside us through different seasons of life, identity shifts, and inner inquiry. Kristina shares her perspective on honoring yoga beyond trends and performance, returning to its roots as a tool for self-study, nervous system regulation, and embodied wisdom. This conversation is especially resonant for practitioners and teachers who are feeling called to slow down, deepen, and relate to yoga in a more authentic, sustainable way. In This Episode, We Explore: Yoga as an evolving practice rather than a fixed identity Moving beyond perfectionism, hustle culture, and aesthetic-driven yoga How life experience, aging, and self-inquiry shape our relationship to practice Honoring the nervous system and subtle body through mindful movement What it means to teach and practice yoga with integrity and presence Listening inward and allowing your practice to change with you Why This Conversation Matters Many women especially those in midlife or navigating transition, feel a quiet pull to relate to movement and spirituality differently than they once did. This episode offers permission to soften, adapt, and trust your inner compass rather than external expectations. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from mainstream yoga culture or sensed there’s more beneath the poses, this conversation will meet you right where you are.
