Hormones Are Doing Side Quests: Understanding Your Cycle & Your Brain
Description
Your hormones aren’t just background noise — they’re out here running monthly side quests that impact mood, focus, energy, and mental health.
In this episode, Maria and Tabitha dig into how the menstrual cycle actually works, why hormonal education is so inaccessible, and why neurodivergent folks often feel hormonal shifts more intensely.
From “why do I feel feral today?” to “is this ADHD or estrogen?”, this is the breakdown your providers should have given you years ago.
We also share practical, neurodivergent-friendly ways to track your cycle so you can understand your patterns and support your mental health with more clarity and self-compassion.
