Perimenopause is a significant time of transition for women, often accompanied by emotional shifts like anxiety, frustration, or brain fog. But did you know these feelings can also be linked to deeper health issues, such as high blood pressure or glucose imbalances? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Brandi Sinkfield, Board-Certified Anesthesiologist and we discuss the vital connections between your emotions, genetics, and overall health during perimenopause. Learn how using tools like blood pressure cuffs and glucose monitors can reveal the ways your emotional state influences your physical well-being, and how understanding this interplay can lead to healthier, more balanced outcomes.
