#201 Brain on Pause? How Estrogen Impacts Your Mood, Focus, and Sleep—and What You Can Do About It
Aug 21, 2025🎙️ New Podcast Alert! 🌟
In this powerful episode, I unpack how declining estrogen levels during perimenopause and menopause affect five key neurotransmitters—serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, and GABA—and how these brain chemicals influence mood, memory, energy, focus, and sleep.
Learn how to spot the signs of imbalance, what they sound like in your everyday life, and simple, natural strategies to support your brain chemistry through this transition. From food to supplements to daily habits—this episode is packed with practical tools to help you feel like yourself again.
What You’ll Learn:
-
How estrogen impacts key brain chemicals
-
What it means when you feel flat, forgetful, unmotivated, or anxious
-
Simple nutrition and lifestyle shifts to balance neurotransmitters
-
Real-life examples and mindset tips to feel empowered, not broken
Tune in if you’ve ever thought:
-
“Why am I so irritable lately?”
-
“Where did my motivation go?”
-
“I can’t remember anything!”
-
“Why am I waking up at 3 a.m. wide awake?”
