The Most Important Thing In Perimenopause- Most Women Ignore It

This is *Episode 3* of my special *Perimenopause Series* on The Uma Show, and I genuinely believe it's one of the most important conversations we've had. For years, I thought sleep was important. Now, at 52, I believe sleep is one of the most powerful beauty, health and longevity practices we have. During perimenopause, I noticed something changing. I wasn't just feeling tired. My mood changed. My energy changed. My face looked different. I found it harder to recover. My cravings increased. My weight became more difficult to manage. And I slowly began realizing that sleep wasn't just affecting my nights—it was influencing almost every part of my life. In this episode, I'm sharing what I have learned about sleep during perimenopause, the science behind why it becomes more challenging, and the daily habits that have genuinely transformed the way I feel. In this episode, we'll explore: ✨ Why sleep changes during perimenopause ✨ How estrogen and progesterone influence your sleep ✨ Why poor sleep affects your skin, hormones and metabolism ✨ The connection between sleep, weight gain and cravings ✨ Why your face often reflects the quality of your sleep ✨ My morning and evening habits that support better sleep ✨ Why nervous system regulation has become one of my most important daily practices ✨ The biggest lesson perimenopause has taught me about recovery One of the biggest mindset shifts I've had is this: Sleep is not something that starts at bedtime. Sleep starts the moment you wake up. The way you move, eat, breathe, manage stress and recover throughout the day all influence how well you sleep at night. This conversation isn't about finding another quick fix. It's about understanding your body and learning how to support it through one of the most important transitions of your life.
