I read that women have a 40% higher risk of depression in midlife and I got to work on this episode right away :)! This is my naturopathic take on how to feel best, and support healthy mood through midlife. I also wanted to take this opportunity to explain the mechanisms at work (hormone-wise) that underlie mood change through perimenopause.

And I also want to thank YOU all for listening and being part of this community. I took a little break to focus on research studies and came back to see the podcast is doing well with lots more downloads. I'm so grateful. Thanking you...
