The Tale of Perimenopause, Part One

Perimenopause affects millions of women, yet the symptoms are often dismissed, minimized, or misdiagnosed. In this episode, Nicole and Margaret challenge the silence surrounding this life stage and dive into the real physical and emotional changes women face. They explore how fluctuating hormones impact everything from mood to inflammation to sleep, why so many women feel blindsided, and what needs to change in the medical system. This is an episode for every woman who’s ever been told “it’s normal” when she knew something deeper was happening.We purposely left the "bloopers" in this episode so you can see, in real time, how perimenopause affects us. If you have any of these symptoms and want us to talk about them in Part 2, please email us at [email protected]!
