So you're ready to end your lifetime eating battle — but lately it feels like there's a new rule around every corner. And the latest one? Protein.

If you're a woman in perimenopause or menopause, chances are your feed is full of people telling you that protein is the secret to everything: balanced hormones, a faster metabolism, more muscle, better energy — even aging "gracefully."

At first, it sounds like helpful advice. But before long, you're tracking grams again, second-guessing every meal, and feeling guilty if you don't hit your "goal." What started as a focus on nourishment turns right back into food noise and fear.

In this episode, "We Need to Talk About Protein," Deanna breaks down why the modern protein obsession might be diet culture's latest disguise — and how to find peace between caring about your health and controlling it.

💡 In this episode, you'll learn:

🔶 Why the "protein for women in midlife" movement can quietly reignite old diet-culture patterns 🔶 How even healthy-sounding nutrition advice can become another form of control 🔶 The difference between caring for your body and micromanaging it 🔶 How protein obsession brings back black-and-white thinking — good foods vs. bad foods 🔶 Why fear of aging and hormonal change makes women extra vulnerable to wellness marketing 🔶 How to tune back into your body's cues instead of external rules 🔶 What true food freedom looks like when nourishment comes from trust, not tracking

…and much more!
