Over 50? Don’t fall for this thyroid trap.

Published about 2 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader,

I want to talk about something I hear far too often from women with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s:

“I’m over 50 now, so this is just my lot. It’s all downhill from here.”

And you know what makes this worse? Doctors reinforce it. 😠

You go in feeling exhausted, gaining weight, or struggling to concentrate - and you’re told:

“Oh, that’s menopause.”
“Oh, it’s just your age.”

As if that’s the end of the story.

But it isn’t.

The truth is: blaming age for thyroid symptoms is one of the most damaging myths out there.

Here’s why:

It leaves you feeling hopeless and defeated, like there’s nothing you can do.
It robs you of potentially years of vibrant living - travelling, enjoying grandkids, chasing dreams.
Poorly managed hypothyroidism can even shorten your life.
So “just age” isn’t just wrong, it’s dangerous!!.

I’ve seen women in their 60s, 70s - even 80s and 90s - reclaim energy, joy, and freedom once they stopped accepting “this is just age” and started making changes.

What you can do (at any age):

Don’t accept dismissal. If your doctor shrugs it off as “age,” push back. Super important!! - Ask about optimising your thyroid meds - not just being “in range.”
Look beyond meds. Diet, lifestyle, stress, and sleep all play a huge role in how you feel day-to-day.
Claim your time. Money can be rebuilt, things can be replaced - but time can’t.

👉 Don’t waste another year settling for less than you deserve.

Because no matter your age, there are steps you can take to feel better. You still get to write this next chapter of your life.

And if you take one thing from today, let it be this:

👉 It’s not “just age.” Don’t let that lie steal your precious years. 🔥

With love and fire,

P.S. If being told “your labs are normal, it’s just your age” makes your blood boil — the Thyroid Ai Lab Decoder is coming soon exclusively inside the Hypothyroid Recovery Hub. It’s an AI tool that helps make sense of your labs so you can stop being fobbed off. You’ll also get the support of a community of women who get it - and that’s what makes the real difference.

Free - Something important is happening tomorrow

Free Energy Webinar – Tomorrow Hi Reader, With Christmas just around the corner - and the pace of life starting to ramp up - I want to share something that could genuinely change how you feel heading into the holidays. This is the time of year when so many women push through exhaustion, ignore their body's signals, and end up crashing right before Christmas... or worse, right in the middle of it. The late nights, the extra food, the stress, the cold weather, the emotional load - it all stacks...

I didn’t realise until everything stopped...

Hi Reader, The Wish We Don’t Make Until It’s Too Late You know that quote - “A healthy woman has a thousand wishes, but a sick woman has only one.” I never truly felt the weight of that until these past two weeks. I caught what I thought was just a really rough flu... But it developed into full-blown vertigo. I couldn’t sit up, look at a screen, or even think straight. I felt sick, dizzy, and completely drained. And I've had thyroid cancer in the past, so anything that knocks me off my feet...
