The Perimenopause Revolution: Your Roadmap to Vitality

If you've ever wondered why your body suddenly feels like it's changing the rules, hot flashes, mood swings, brain fog, and all, this one's for you. Perimenopause can feel confusing and even a little isolating, but it doesn't have to be. In this episode, I'm sitting down with my dear friend and hormone expert Dr. Mariza Snyder, who's helping women everywhere see this season of life in a whole new light. She's breaking down what's actually happening in our bodies and how we can work with those changes instead of fighting against them.   Dr. Mariza has spent nearly two decades helping women understand their hormones, and she has such a beautiful way of making it all make sense. We talk through the stages of perimenopause, the shifts that happen along the way, and what your body's trying to tell you through all of it. She also shares her top go-to practices, simple, doable things that make a real difference when it comes to energy, mood, and metabolism.   Your body isn't broken; it's evolving. Tune in for a heartfelt and empowering talk with Dr. Mariza, plus a peek into her upcoming book, The Perimenopause Revolution (coming October 2025). You'll walk away feeling seen, supported, and ready to take charge of your health with a little more grace and a lot more confidence.   Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introduction.
