371: Perimenopause Explained: Sleep, Stress, + Hormone Shifts | Dr. Mariza Snyder
Description
In this episode, I’m talking all things self-care, stress, and navigating perimenopause without losing your mind. We cover mini screen breaks, getting outside, building morning and evening routines that actually stick, and how movement with friends can be a total game changer. I also chat with Dr. Mariza about sleep struggles, hormone shifts, and practical ways to feel more grounded and energized every day. Plus, I share my go-to rituals: red light masks, acupressure mats, cozy teas, and sacred “me time, ”that keep me sane while juggling work, kids, and life.
