• 687: The Period Brain: Why You Feel Like a Different Person Every Month And How To Stop Fighting Your Cycle and Start Thriving in It with Sarah Hill

  If you’ve ever felt like you’re riding a menstrual cycle roller coaster of cravings, exhaustion, and mood swings– this conversation is for you.  In this episode, I’m joined by leading researcher and women’s hormone expert Dr. Sarah E. Hill to unpack what’s really going on in your body—and your brain—during your cycle.  Dr. Hill breaks down how shifting levels of progesterone and estrogen in the second half of your cycle can impact everything from your sleep and appetite to your mood and libido.  We also talk about how this becomes even more complex—and important to understand—during perimenopause, when hormone patterns start to change unpredictably.  You’ll learn why traditional health advice often fails women during this phase of life, and what to do instead to actually support your body.  It’s time to rethink your period, reclaim your energy, and finally feel in sync with your hormones! Dr. Sarah Hill Dr. Sarah E. Hill is a researcher and professor at TCU, lead science advisor for 28, and the author of The Period Brain and This Is Your Brain on Birth Control. Sarah’s work has resulted in more than 80 research publications, with features in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Scientific American, The Economist, and on shows like Good Morning and Today. Sarah is a well-known speaker, consultant, and media expert in women’s health, hormones, and sexual psychology. IN THIS EPISODE Understanding our hormone changes over the course of a cycle  Why cycle symptoms can be different during perimenopause  How past trauma impacts PMS and your stress response  What’s really happening with your hormone levels in your cycle Managing your stress response system to feel safe in your body  The negative impacts stress has on your reproductive system The critical connection between your brain and sex hormones  About Dr. Sarah Hill’s newest Book: The Period Brain  QUOTES “The week– or for some women, it's even the full two weeks– of the luteal phase can be a really challenging time emotionally as their body is struggling to keep up with those wild swings and hormones. But then also as you go into perimenopause, you're going through a period of intense hormonal change, and unlike what goes on across a regular cycle, it's unpredictable.” “Women are twice as likely as men to have mental health-related illnesses. They're more than twice as likely as men to be diagnosed with anxiety. They're more likely to experience burnout in the workplace. I mean, the list goes on, and it's because there's way too much that's expected of us. And one thing that women don't recognize about it is that in addition to this being bad for things like cardiovascular health… it can also prevent you from even producing sex hormones.” “A big part of The Period Brain is first, just really giving women a roadmap to the second half of their cycle, since it's not something that's really talked about.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Preorder the Perimenopause Revolution and get your VIP ticket to the Perimenopause Solution event http://hayh.site/pr_bl_ap-snyder_a_opt Use code ENERGIZED and get 10% off on your first Troscriptions order http://troscriptions.com/ENERGIZED Order Dr. Sarah Hill’s Book: The Period Brain Dr. Sarah Hill’s Website Dr. Hill’s Instagram Dr. Hill’s Facebook RELATED EPISODES  686: Your Second Puberty Explained: What’s Really Happening to Your Body in Perimenopause  #648: This Changes Everything: The Perimenopause Revolution Every Woman Needs Now #622: How to Feel Prepared for the Massive Hormone Shifts in Midlife with Dr. Taz Bhatia #510: Need to Calm The Estrogen Drama Causing Period Problems?

• 686: Your Second Puberty Explained: What’s Really Happening to Your Body in Perimenopause

  Perimenopause is really like your “second puberty,”-- and it sets the course for the rest of your life. So in this episode, I’m giving you a special sneak peek into my brand-new book, The Perimenopause Revolution! We’ll dive into what perimenopause really is, why it matters, and how understanding hormonal and metabolic changes can transform the way you navigate this stage of life.  Even though half the world’s population will go through it, perimenopause is still clouded with confusion—so I’m here to clear it all up.  From the wide range of symptoms to the long-term impact on your health, you’ll learn why this transition is not the beginning of the end, but the beginning of a more connected, vital, and powerful you.  Tune in here and get inspired to put your best foot forward in this exciting new chapter of your life! IN THIS EPISODE What to expect in my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution What’s driving the confusion around perimenopause? Understanding the system-wide changes during perimenopause Recognizing feelings and emotions common in perimenopause How to know when you’re in perimenopause  Common signs and symptoms of perimenopause  How perimenopause can impact all aspects of your life  QUOTES “Symptoms and changes in the body are a result of fluctuating and declining hormones that have far-reaching effects on many important systems– the brain, heart, metabolism, bones, and muscles, to name a few.”  “My goal with this book is to help women gain a greater understanding of the impact of hormone shifts, as well as changes in metabolism and blood sugar on every aspect of their health. That way, they can target these areas and confidently approach the second half of life feeling strong, resilient, and energized.” “Perimenopause forces us to confront challenges in a whole new way because what worked before no longer does, and ultimately, I think that's a good thing because we learn to prioritize what really matters and let go of what doesn't serve us anymore.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Join The Perimenopause Solution LIVE event https://drmariza.com/thrive RELATED EPISODES  #648: This Changes Everything: The Perimenopause Revolution Every Woman Needs Now #624: What We Got Very Wrong About Perimenopause #572: How to Know You are in Perimenopause Including the 40+ Symptoms Associated with Declining Hormones #539: Everything You Need to Know About Navigating Hormone Changes in Perimenopause

• 685: End Emotional Outsourcing: Break Free from Codependency, Perfectionism & People-Pleasing with Beatriz Albina

  What do you really want the second half of your life to look like?  Being a doormat for others, then resenting it? Saying yes, when you really mean no? Doing more tasks or more work, taking responsibility for everything, and feeling overwhelmed in your life?  This can be how so many of us in midlife feel, but I’m here to tell you there IS another way.  In this episode, I sit down with expert Beatriz Albina to talk about a challenge so many women face but can’t always name—patterns of overgiving, perfectionism, and the ultimate people-pleasing trap.  Beatriz introduces the concept of emotional outsourcing and how it quietly drives these behaviors, leaving us feeling stuck and drained.  Together, we discuss how reframing your mindset is a powerful tool for reclaiming your emotional well-being. Plus, Beatriz gives us a sneak peek into her brand-new book, End Emotional Outsourcing—a guide to finding freedom, balance, and true self-connection. Tune in here to reignite joy in your life, and find the inner peace you’ve been craving for years!  Beatriz Albina Beatriz (Béa) Albina, NP, MPH, SEP (she/her) is a UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Master Certified Somatic Life Coach, and author of the book "End Emotional Outsourcing: a Guide to Overcoming Codependent, Perfectionist and People Pleasing Habits". She’s dedicated to helping people socialized as women reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and rewire their minds to break free from codependency, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. Béa hosts the Feminist Wellness Podcast, and holds a Master's degree in Public Health from Boston University School of Public Health and a BA in Latin American Studies from Oberlin College. IN THIS EPISODE What is emotional outsourcing, and how can it impact women?  Getting back to the basics for our emotional needs  How our emotions lie in our nervous system– not just our minds   Calming techniques you can do in 5 seconds, anytime, anywhere Detaching from labels like ‘co-dependent’ and ‘perfectionist’  How to stay regulated while also setting boundaries  Why reframing your mindset is so important for healing  All about Beatriz’s book: End Emotional Outsourcing  QUOTES “This is what happens when we get activated or triggered in our nervous system. When we start being mean to ourselves, when we ignore our impulses, when we project, when we take things personally, when we get offended, all these things– our nervous system is in a different time and place.”  “That’s the self-worth work. Saying, ‘I trust myself, I believe in myself, and so I know that this isn't a problem.’ And that's that. Not allowing any other thoughts to enter your beautiful mind space, your world, your body. It's really vital work.”  “What our children and our partners, and our friends and our communities and ourselves want and need from us the most, most, most, is presence. Intunement and presence.”  RESOURCES MENTIONED Use code ENERGIZED and get $100 off on your CAROL Bike purchase https://carolbike.pxf.io/GK3LaE Preorder the Perimenopause Revolution and get your VIP ticket to the Perimenopause Solution event  http://hayh.site/pr_bl_ap-snyder_a_opt Order Béa’s book: End Emotional Outsourcing HERE http://beatrizalbina.com/book Béa’s Website Béa’s Instagram RELATED EPISODES  #629: Unlocking Emotional Resilience with Awareness, Lifestyle and Tools to Regulate Your Stress Triggers with Dr. Drew Ramsey #553: Simple Ways to Start Feeling Calm and Safe and How to Align Your Nervous System for More Abundance with Kate Northrup #565: How to Live in a State of Ease and Flow vs. Overwhelm and Resentment + Reclaiming Your Aliveness with Alexi Panos #569: How to Build a Strong Emotional Connection with Your Partner and How to Transform Your Love Life with Vanessa and Xander Marin
