The Power Beyond Willpower
If your willpower keeps letting you down, the problem was never you. Willpower isn't a personality trait or a sign of discipline; it's a physiological state that drains through the day, especially when you're navigating the fluctuating energy and stress of perimenopause. In this post, Registered Clinical Dietician and Mindset Mentor Justine Friedman unpacks the myth of willpower and shares three simple, science-based tools that work with your body instead of against it: stabilising your blood sugar with protein at breakfast, signalling safety to your nervous system through your breath, and replacing self-blame with curiosity. A practical, compassionate read for women over 40 who are tired of trying harder and ready to work in partnership with their bodies.
