I am thrilled to reconnect with Kylie Larson today. Kylie is truly an exceptional individual. She is a Brendon Bouchard-trained coach, host of the Far from Perfect Podcast, content creator, and founder of Lift to Get Lean.

In our discussion today, we dive into the role of compassion, particularly during perimenopause and menopause, and explore the concepts of surrender and trusting your body. We discuss why women are more concerned about the number on the scale than their body composition, explain why data is simply data, and how resistance to change can affect our ability to manage perimenopause and menopause. We cover macros, misinformation, and metabolic flexibility and look into the value of maintenance and how to reverse diet. Kylie also shares some of her favorite resources, books, and tools.

I was honored to reconnect with Kylie, and I know you will love this conversation with her as much as I did.
