#137 5 Things to Understand About ADHD & Perimenopause


Listen Later

Ever felt like you’re pedalling through life twice as hard just to keep up? 


In this episode, Xena dives into the hormonal storm that is perimenopause  and how it collides with ADHD to make everything feel harder. From brain fog and mood swings to meds suddenly feeling “meh,” she breaks down what’s actually happening in your brain and body.


You’ll learn:

  • Why your ADHD symptoms might feel worse - and why you’re not failing at life
  •  How hormone fluctuations turn emotional waves into tsunamis
  •  Why stimulant meds can feel less effective (you’re not imagining it!)
  •  What PMDD is and why it’s so common in ADHD women
  •  Tools, supplements & supports that can help you ride the waves instead of drowning in them


If you’ve been thinking, “I just feel all over the place,” this one’s for you, my friend. You’re not broken - your brain’s just navigating two neurochemical storms at once.


Tune in to feel understood, validated, & better equipped to work with your ADHD brain through this wild hormonal chapter.
