188. What no one told you about the female brain with Dr. Sarah McKay.
Description
For too long, women have been told their brains are "broken" or that every struggle is just hormones. In this episode, we shift that narrative. Dr. Sarah McKay — Oxford-trained neuroscientist and author of The Women's Brain Book, Baby Brain, and Brain Health For Dummies — joins me to break down what's really going on in the female brain.
We talk about postpartum changes, perimenopause, anxiety, sleep, libido, and why so much of women's mental health is shaped not just by biology, but by support systems, stress, and societal expectations. This conversation will help you understand the female brain with more clarity, compassion, and empowerment.
If you've ever been told "it's just your hormones," this episode will give you a whole new perspective.
