This neuroendocrine transition often starts in your late 30s or 40s, and understanding it is the key to feeling like yourself again.We talk about the hidden hormone changes most women don’t realize they’re experiencing, why so many women in midlife describe feeling “lost,” and what’s actually driving symptoms like anxiety, brain fog, irritability, weight changes, low motivation, and emotional overwhelm.This season of life is an incredible opportunity to rebirth your energy, clarity, and purpose.What You’ll Learn:The midlife hormone imbalance that affects mood, sleep, weight, and libidoEarly perimenopause symptoms women often missWhy so many women in their 40s feel disconnected or “not like themselves”The brain chemistry changes behind anxiety, irritability, and overwhelmThe identity “upgrade” that happens during hormonal shiftsExercise snacks for blood sugar, metabolism, and emotional regulationPleasure stacking & nervous system tools for daily stressLow libido in perimenopause — what’s hormonal vs emotionalThe newest HRT research + FDA vaginal estrogen updateHow to rebuild community and connection during life transitionsResources:Dr. Mariza Snyder: https://drmariza.com/ Get her book ‘The Perimenopause Revolution: Reclaim Your Hormones, Metabolism & Energy’: https://amzn.to/3FwSAlK Melissa’s Red Light faves, with special codes and discounts: https://www.drmelissasonners.com/red-light-guide Be Inspired Mama Journal: https://amzn.to/4afbs3s Want a free and meaningful way to support the show?
