@beautybykatguthealth: I'd take 45 over 25 every single time. And if you're in your 20s and rocking it, amazing! Your 40s will be even better. My 20s looked like six pregnancies (four babies, two miscarriages), studying for exams on three hours of sleep, and not sleeping through the night for about a decade. My first year teaching, my oldest was a newborn. I bawled the whole drive to work every morning, then pumped in the teachers' bathroom on my breaks and ran back to act like I had it together in front of 25 kids. I quit after that year because I couldn't do both. My husband was in school too, so we lived off student loans and a prayer. Hardly saw him bc he was always studying or working on his dissertation. I was putting groceries back at the register, and date night was a Redbox movie and a frozen pie with two spoons after the babies were asleep if we were feeling fancy. And I had no idea who I was. Just a wife and a mom trying to keep everyone alive. It blows my mind that I look better now than I did then. Now I'm 45. Some of my kids can make their own lunch (I still do it anyways bc I sleep again thanks to a natural hormone pack that has made my 40s feel like a dream. We don't check the bank account before groceries. My husband and I go on real dates and like each other more than when we were just surviving. I built a business I love and I say no without feeling guilty. We’ve started traveling and its dreamy. And listen… our life is not perfect. Growing children into young adults comes with even more stress but some how it’s still better. Okay be honest. Which decade was harder for you? Team 20s, convince me. I'm ready 😂👇 #hormonehealth #perimenopausejourney #hormonebalance #balancinghormonesnaturally #guthealth
