Bloating, wind, constipation, heartburn… sound familiar?Is it food, stress, food, stress, or old age?
In this episode, Emma breaks down the messy relationship between your gut and your hormones — how oestrogen, progesterone and cortisol gang up on your digestion, why cutting carbs isn’t the solution, and what you can actually do to fix it.
By the end, you’ll know exactly how to get your gut — and your confidence — back on side.

You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re just stuck in the same fake fix every high-performing woman hits in perimenopause — trying to discipline her way out of a hormone problem.
In this episode, Emma unpacks why pushing harder is making you feel worse, what’s really happening in your body, and how to rebuild safety, energy, and self-trust without another plan or punishment cycle.
If you’ve ever said, “I know what to do, I just can’t do it anymore,” this one’s for you.

When perimenopause hits, most women double down. More rules. More restriction. More pressure.
But here’s the kicker: the harder you push, the worse you feel.
In this episode of Piss Off Perimenopause, Emma breaks down the most common things women do that don’t work — from trying to diet their way out of hormone chaos to waiting for motivation that never comes — and what to do instead.
If you’re tired of doing everything “right” and still feeling awful, this one’s your wake-up call.

Apparently, we can now diagnose our hormones through TikTok -because all you need is a “cortisol face,” a “sleepy girl mocktail,” and an influencer who swears collagen cured her hot flushes.
But how much of this is real science, and how much is just social media claptrap?
In this episode, Emma breaks down the viral trends around perimenopause, separates myth from fact, and gives you the straight-talking truth about what actually works. No filters, no fear-mongering, and definitely no celery juice.
