What if the rising overwhelm, emotional sensitivity, and brain fog you’re experiencing aren’t “just stress”—but the result of shifting hormones during perimenopause? And what if the solution isn’t more willpower, but more self-understanding?
In this potent follow-up episode, I sat down once again with Hormone and ADHD educator Adele Wimsett to explore the under-researched but deeply lived experience of ADHD in perimenopause. With new research, clinical insights, and lived wisdom, Adele uncovers how oestrogen, progesterone, and even histamine are influencing our mood, memory, and capacity to cope—especially for neurodivergent women.
We talk about:
- The perfect hormonal storm of ADHD + perimenopause
- Why progesterone is the unsung hero of hormone health
- Cycle tracking and data tools that empower better care
- Histamine, burnout, and why adrenal health is everything
- How to advocate for body-identical hormone therapy (and why most doctors miss the mark)
If you’re in your late 30s to mid-40s and wondering “why am I suddenly not coping like I used to?”—this episode is for you.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
