Being strong got you here. But it's also what's keeping you stuck.

This episode dives into the difference between resilience and adaptation—and why high-functioning women are often blindsided by burnout, hormonal chaos, and resentment. If you've ever created a four-page document just to leave your house for four days, or felt rage bubbling up every luteal phase, this one's for you. We're talking invisible labor, decision fatigue, and how your cycle has been trying to get your attention for years.

In this episode we explore:

• The Yale study that found women process 127 decisions before 9 AM while men average 31

• Why resilience and adaptation are NOT the same thing (and why your body keeps receipts)

• How estrogen turns you into a yes-woman and progesterone demands boundaries

• The invisible mental load: why one partner carries the entire household in their brain

• Three practical ways to start shifting from survival mode to cyclical living TODAY

Melatonin isn't just a supplement you grab at the drugstore—it's a hormone. And it's doing so much more in your body than just making you drowsy at bedtime. From supporting ovulation and progesterone production to reducing menstrual migraines, helping with perimenopause sleep issues, and even promoting hair growth, melatonin is essential for women's hormonal health. In this episode, I'm breaking down what melatonin actually is, how it works, what suppresses it, and when (and if) you should supplement.

In this episode we explore:

• What melatonin actually is

• How melatonin supports ovulation, reduces menstrual migraines, and helps with perimenopause sleep disruptions

• What suppresses melatonin production

• Why you need to support your body's natural melatonin production before reaching for supplements

You're exhausted but wired at bedtime. Or you fall asleep fine, but jolt awake at 3 AM with your mind racing. If you're waking up at the same time every night and can't figure out why, this episode is for you. I'm breaking down the midnight triangle—the intricate relationship between sleep, cortisol, and blood sugar that's keeping you awake. Spoiler alert: it has nothing to do with your mattress or pillow. This is your body sending you a loud SOS signal.

In this episode we explore:

• Why blood sugar crashes trigger 3 AM wake-ups (and how cortisol and adrenaline are involved)

• How your HPA axis gets dysregulated under chronic stress, keeping you "tired but wired"

• The vicious cycle between poor sleep, high cortisol, and insulin resistance

• Why perimenopause makes sleep worse (hello, declining progesterone)

• Five practical solutions you can implement tonight to start sleeping better

We say "I'm so busy" without realizing we're actually burned out. There's a massive difference between having a full schedule and being in full-blown hormonal burnout—and most of us don't recognize it until we're deep in it. In this episode, I'm walking you through the five hormone clues your body has been waving at you, trying to get your attention. Because burnout isn't just stress—it's when we self-abandon, and our hormones are screaming for help.

If you're exhausted no matter how much you sleep, your mood is all over the place, or rest doesn't actually restore you anymore—this episode is for you.

In this episode we explore:

• The difference between being busy (you still have choice) and being burned out (your nervous system is stuck in survival mode)

• Why bone-deep exhaustion means your adrenals are depleted and rest doesn't restore you anymore

• How mood swings, rage, and feeling like a stranger to yourself are signs of cortisol overload and progesterone depletion

• What it means when your period goes missing or becomes irregular—and why your body shuts down "non-essential" functions under chronic stress

• Why you're gaining weight even though nothing has changed (hint: cortisol and insulin are having a dysfunctional relationship)

It's mid-January and you might be feeling like you should be hustling hard on those New Year goals—but what if your body is telling you something different? In this episode, I'm sharing why traditional January planning might be setting you up for burnout and how to plan your entire year in a way that honors BOTH the environmental seasons around you and your menstrual cycle within you. I'm getting real about my cement-shoes-in-a-5km-race moments, my Black Friday launch disaster, and how planning cyclically transformed my business and life. If you've ever felt exhausted trying to keep up with everyone else's timeline, this episode is your permission slip to create your own rhythm.

In this episode we explore:

• Why January 1st isn't actually your new year (hint: Spring Equinox is where the magic happens)

• How to plan with the four environmental seasons—winter for rest and reflection, spring for initiation, summer for connection, and fall for refinement

• The power of layering your menstrual cycle phases with the calendar year to plan according to your actual energy

• My real story of trying to sell during my period on Black Friday (spoiler: it flopped) and why marketing strategies don't work when you're swimming upstream against your body

• Simple practices to start honoring your cycles instead of fighting them

Welcome to Season 4! We've got a new name, a new energy, and the same real talk you've come to expect. In this premiere episode, I'm breaking down why your January or February period might feel completely off—and it's all because of what's happening right now during the holidays.

Even if you don't feel stressed, your body might be struggling behind the scenes. And most of us don't actually notice how bad it's gotten until our period shows up with a vengeance.

If you've been indulging in more sugar, staying up late, skipping meals, or drinking more than usual—your hormones are taking notes. Let's decode what's happening and what you can do about it.

In this episode we explore:

• How holiday stress impacts your menstrual cycle—even if you don't feel stressed

• Why you won't see the hormonal fallout until January or February

• Practical steps to help your body recalibrate before things get worse

We're back for Season 4 with a new name, a new energy, and the same real talk you've come to expect from this show. Welcome What the HORMONES podcast.

GLP-1 medications are everywhere right now—but the real conversation isn’t just whether they work. It’s how to use them wisely, especially for women navigating perimenopause, hormone shifts, and burnout.

In part two of my conversation with clinical pharmacist Dr. Katashia, we slow things down and get honest about the side effects women are actually experiencing on GLP-1s—and, more importantly, what you can do before and during treatment to protect your health, hormones, and muscle mass.

This episode isn’t about quick fixes or chasing smaller numbers on the scale. It’s about using GLP-1s as a supportive tool. If you’ve been curious about GLP-1s but worried about constipation, fatigue, muscle loss, or “doing it wrong,” this is the conversation you’ve been waiting for.

In this episode we explore:

• The most common GLP-1 side effects women experience—and which ones are actually preventable

• Why muscle loss, constipation, and nutrient deficiencies matter more in midlife

• The non-negotiables for optimizing GLP-1 outcomes: protein, hydration, fiber, and strength training

• The labs, baseline testing, and prep work women should consider before starting a GLP-1

Guest Bio:Dr. Katashia Partee Kendrick is the founder of Dr. Katashia Wellness Kollective, an empowering space for women to heal, grow and thrive through sound therapy meditation, holistic fertility and hormonal harmony. As a Clinical Pharmacist, Women's Hormones Expert, Integrative Health Practitioner, and Certified Sound Healer, her journey reflects resilience and determination, shaped by her own struggles with infertility, endometriosis and fibroids and the stress that comes with it. Through her work, Dr. Katashia empowers women and couples on their journey to parenthood while supporting women through the transitions of womanhood. Her approach focuses on three pillars: sound therapy meditation, preconception/fertility coaching, and perimenopause/menopause support, with an emphasis on mental and emotional wellness. Join her for this transformative experience focused on holistic wellness, vitality, and optimal well-being.

You've seen it all over social media. Everyone's talking about GLP-1’s. Maybe you've heard the brand names—Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro—and wondered, "What exactly is this, and why are so many women suddenly using it?" If you're in perimenopause and noticing weight gain despite doing everything "right," battling constant cravings, or feeling like your body is working against you... this episode is for you.
