The Elise Tzurkov Podcast

In this episode, I break down the mindset that separates the top 1% from everyone else: the ability to take action even when it’s inconvenient, uncomfortable, or imperfect. Especially during perimenopause and menopause, when hormones, fatigue, and emotions can feel unpredictable, progress comes from consistency—not perfect conditions.

You’ll learn why your mind constantly looks for excuses, how to override those impulses, and how small daily decisions compound into powerful long-term results.

This episode will challenge the way you think about discipline, consistency, and self-leadership. Because the women who create lasting results aren’t the ones who wait until it’s easy—they’re the ones who do it anyway.

The question is: when the moment comes to choose comfort or growth… which one will you choose?

You’re not lazy.  You’re not broken.  You’re hormonal. 
Perimenopause puts your liver, gut and blood sugar systems under enormous pressure – and when they buckle, your symptoms skyrocket.  Most programs treat the symptoms. We go after the root.

Each day has a purpose from Day 1, where we stabilize blood sugar to Day 7 where we focus on integration and ritual.  We also give you a meal plan, foods to avoid, journal prompts etc.

Saying no isn’t a personality trait—it’s a skill. And like any skill, it improves with practice. In this episode, I explore why so many women struggle to set boundaries and how learning to say no can dramatically increase confidence, self-respect, and personal clarity. If declining requests feels awkward or uncomfortable, you’re not alone. I break down why that discomfort exists, thecommon habits that keep women overcommitted, and how repetition can make boundary-setting feel natural instead of stressful. You’ll learn how to start small, practice in everyday situations, and shift the belief that saying no is selfish. Because protecting your time, energy, and priorities isn’t harmful—it’s necessary for growth.

If confidence is built through action, could practicing the word no be the fastest way to strengthen it?

Most ambitious women don’t realize the very environments that elevate their careers are quietly sabotaging their health. In this powerful episode, I expose how networking dinners, travel, cocktails, and “just this once” indulgences create the slow,cumulative weight gain so common in your 40s and 50s.

I break down the subtle habits that derail progress—and the simple shifts that protect it. You’ll learn how to spot the “slow drip” behaviors adding inches to your waistline, reframe social pressure without feeling deprived, and choose consistency over perfection in busy, high-performance environments.

Because midlife weight gain isn’t inevitable—it’s patterned.

If you’re a driven professional who’s tired of feeling powerless around food in high-pressure settings, this episode gives you the structure, mindset, and discipline to stay lean while succeeding at the highest level.

Your career shouldn’t cost you your health.

Most weight loss advice is flawed – you’re told to give upyour favourite foods forever.  But what if the real secret to lasting change isn’t restriction, but flexibility?  Restrictive diets don’t work and the key to lasting weight loss is creating sustainable habits.  The biggest enemy to lasting change is often your own self-imposed limits.  Why settle for temporary limits when lasting change is about smart flexibility? Tune in now to redefine how you think about weight loss in perimenopause and finally make habits that stick.
