EP. 114 Why you crash at 2–4 PM (and how to stop it)

If you hit a wall between 2 and 4 PM and suddenly feel foggy, irritable, snacky, or like you need coffee just to finish the day, this episode is for you. In perimenopause and menopause, that afternoon crash is rarely random. It's often a blood sugar dip paired with a stress response, and hormone shifts can make the crash hit harder with louder cravings and less buffer. I break down what it really means, why it keeps happening even when you're doing "all the right things," and the simple STEADY reset that helps stabilize energy and calm cravings without restriction or perfection. Perfect for women over 40 dealing with afternoon fatigue, brain fog later in the day, sugar or caffeine cravings, and that wiped out but still on-edge feeling who want a clear, doable reset.
