#106 | Perimenopause (Not to Be Confused with Periwinkle) with Amanda Brinkman
Description
Max and Matt sit down with their longtime friend Amanda Brinkman for an honest, hilarious, and eye-opening conversation about perimenopause—what it is, why it matters, and why so few people are actually talking about it. Amanda shares her personal experience navigating brain fog, rage surges, sleep disturbances, and the emotional chaos of midlife… all while raising a daughter who's hitting puberty herself. They unpack the medical blind spots, cultural silence, and outdated advice still lingering around women’s health, and how this stage of life can be both deeply disorienting and wildly empowering. With help from some actual science (and a lot of jokes), they explore how to better support your partner, your friends, and yourself through this phase—and why knowing what’s going on might be the most powerful tool of all. Let’s gooo!
You like that Amanda Brinkman lady? So do we! And when she's not talking about perimenopause, she spends much of her time travelling the country talking to big ol' crowds about finding Purpose. She's even got a course on it, y'all. Check out the links below.
