Listen Later

If you’re in perimenopause and feel anxious, overstimulated, reactive, or like your body can’t fully relax, this episode will connect a lot of dots.

In this episode, we’re talking about the nervous system side of perimenopause — something most women are never taught. Hormone shifts, poor sleep, under-eating protein, dehydration, and chronic stress can push your body into fight-or-flight, even when nothing is “wrong” in your life.

Inside this episode:

  • Why perimenopause can feel like anxiety, overwhelm, or irritability

  • How hormone changes impact your nervous system and stress response

  • Common signs your body is stuck in survival mode

  • Why sleep disruption, brain fog, and low motivation are connected

  • Simple ways to calm your nervous system without a full life overhaul

  • Foundational support that matters most during perimenopause
