In today's solo episode, I'll delve into a common struggle for many women: overcoming discouragement during perimenopause.

 

It's a phase where you may find yourself feeling drained and irritable, wondering why you're experiencing phantom smells and foggy thinking. These challenges can be disheartening as you navigate perimenopause.

 

Join me as I explore how stress and hormonal shifts, like cortisol, can impact our mood, making it tough to shake off those discouraging moments. I will be sharing practical strategies that have helped me to uplift my spirits and stay positive through it all.
