The Nervous System Eats First is a podcast about the midlife body—when masking stops working, menopause hits hard, and your nervous system demands more than just supplements and willpower.
Hosted by Dr. Stacey Denise, a board-certified physician and founder of the Neuroaesthetic MD™ method, this show invites listeners into a new kind of recovery: one where healing begins through the senses.
Each episode blends science, sensory ritual, and somatic insight to help women reclaim regulation—not as a reward, but as a requirement.
This is not “self-care.” This is nervous system nutrition for:
Autistic and ADHD women unmasking in midlife
Black women and women of color navigating medical gaslighting
Women in menopause who feel invisible, exhausted, and emotionally unmoored
Highly sensitive women trying to feel something without getting overwhelmed
If you’ve ever asked, “What is happening to my body?”—this podcast is your permission slip to find out, slowly and with grace.

Own Your Image — Technocolonialism, AI Beauty & Sensory Sovereignty
What happens when the mirror doesn’t reflect you and the algorithm doesn’t recognize you?In this episode, Dr. Stacey Denise explores how artificial intelligence, beauty standards, and racial bias intersect to shape not just our digital presence, but our nervous systems. Through a rich blend of personal narrative, neuroaesthetic insight, and an illuminating dialogue with Dr. Monique Akassi, we unpack the emotional toll of being digitally erased and how to reclaim visibility through what Dr. Stacey calls sensory sovereignty.You’ll hear how technocolonialism hides in plain sight, why AI-generated beauty often fails Black and neurodivergent women, and how tools like the Color Reset™ Method offer more than aesthetic correction, they offer emotional medicine.With excerpts from Dr. Akassi’s groundbreaking work and an invitation to imagine “healing tech,” this episode challenges listeners to ask not just what AI sees but who’s behind the screen.🎧 Tune in now to rediscover your image, restore your sensory safety, and rethink the digital future — on your terms.Subscription, links & Email ListYouTubeBlogNewsletter SocialsDr. Stacey's LinkedInDr. Stacey's InstagramDr. Stacey's Facebook WebsitePrograms & TrainingsThe Neuroaesthetic Reset™ (Beta) Book a 15-Min Clarity Call with Dr. Stacey Denise
