Welcome back to Empower Your Menopause—the podcast where we ditch outdated advice and give you real tools to help you thrive in midlife and beyond.

It's coaches James and Juli here and in this episode we’re tackling one of the most confusing (and misunderstood) nutrition topics for women over 40: can you guess what it is yet? It’s carbohydrates.

If you’ve been told to cut carbs to lose weight or feel better in midlife—hold that thought. Because your body deserves more than questionable diet advice and a side of guilt.

We’re going to break down what carbs actually are, which ones help vs. hurt, and why eating the right ones might just change everything—energy, mood, cravings, even sleep.

The good news is that yes, you CAN eat carbs. So let’s talk about how to do that in a way that empowers your menopause—one smart bite at a time.
