How Burnout Masquerades as Perimenopause - And How to Sail Through Unscathed!

Hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, and fatigue aren’t always “just perimenopause.” In this episode, Dr. Mylaine Riobé, MD, reveals how burnout often disguises itself as perimenopause — and why these symptoms are early warning signs you should never ignore.

You’ll discover:

• Why perimenopause symptoms are really burnout colliding with hormones

• How hot flashes and night sweats signal deeper metabolic imbalances

• Why “normal” bloodwork often misses the real problem

• How to turn this transition into a second chance to reset your metabolism and protect long-term health

✨ Perimenopause isn’t the beginning of decline — it’s your opportunity to sail through unscathed and reclaim vibrant health.
