I love when conversations explain why you suddenly feel like you just can’t do things the same way anymore. In this episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz is back to share what’s actually happening in your brain and body as women move through perimenopause and menopause, and why this phase isn’t a breakdown, it’s a powerful rewiring. We talk about fasting in a way that finally makes sense for women, how estrogen impacts everything from motivation to people-pleasing, and how to take back power over your health in your 40s and beyond. Dr. Mindy breaks down the science behind hormone shifts, brain rewiring, and the importance of your cycle and its timing. Tune in to rethink aging, ambition, and what it really means to earn your happy.
