You walk into a room. You know you came in for something important. And then… poof. Gone. You stand there blankly, questioning everything from your memory to your hormones to your life choices.

Welcome to the club.

In this episode, Chauntel and I are talking about why your brain forgets things the moment you cross a doorway — and why it’s probably not early dementia, but a delightful cocktail of stress, exhaustion, and hormones.

We’ll unpack the “doorway effect,” menopause brain fog, and the crushing mental load that makes even simple thoughts vanish. And we’ll laugh about it, because what else are we gonna do? Cry? (Actually, yes — but that’s the hormones, too.)

So grab your drink of choice — coffee, wine, electrolyte water — and join me in the fog. We’ll find our way out together… eventually.
