Ep. 80 | Why You're Snapping, Crying, and Anxious in Menopause (And It's Not Just Hormones)
Manage episode 479529104 series 3566374
If you’ve been feeling edgy, emotional, or like you're stuck in a mood swing spiral—this episode is for you.
In today’s no-BS conversation, I’m unpacking the real reason mood swings and anxiety seem to take over in midlife—and why it’s not just your hormones. We’ll dig into the sneaky role of cortisol, how chronic stress hijacks your brain chemistry, and why emotional symptoms are often the most misunderstood part of the menopause transition.
You’ll learn:
Why even women who’ve never had anxiety before start to struggle
The connection between cortisol, estrogen, and your neurotransmitters
What your nervous system actually needs to calm down (hint: it’s not just deep breathing)
Real strategies that go beyond surface-level advice
You’re not “too sensitive.” You’re not losing it. You’re in a stress-hormone loop—and there’s a way out.
