The Hidden Causes of Perimenopause Exhaustion: Stress, Hormones, and Your Brain
Feeling like your energy has been hijacked lately? You’re not imagining it — perimenopause exhaustion is real, and it’s not just about getting older or not sleeping enough. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Jolene Brighten, board-certified naturopathic endocrinologist and author of Is This Normal?, sits down with Dr. Mariza Snyder, bestselling author of The Perimenopause Solution, to uncover why so many women in their 30s and 40s suddenly feel depleted, foggy, and unlike themselves.
Together, they reveal how shifting hormones, chronic stress, and brain rewiring collide in midlife and what you can do to rebuild your energy, resilience, and joy.
