About this Event

Why does weight loss feel so difficult for so many people—despite doing “the right things”?

This in-person session explores the real science behind weight regulation, metabolism, hormones, stress, and modern lifestyles. We’ll look at why weight loss often becomes challenging, what biology has to do with it, and which popular assumptions don’t actually hold up under scientific scrutiny.

Also covered: weight changes during perimenopause, including the role of hormones, stress, sleep, and metabolism — explained through current scientific understanding.

No hype. No blame. Just clear, evidence-informed insights to help you better understand your body and make more sense of what you may be experiencing.

This session is ideal for anyone interested in health, wellbeing, and sustainable approaches to weight management—whether you’re just curious, feeling stuck, or looking for a more grounded perspective.
