EP40. Women spend years in some sort of hormonal flux, from puberty to pregnancy to perimenopause. Understanding the changes is critical to help you manage those years without faking fine. In my conversation with Performance Psychologist Dr. Jennifer Churchill, we dive into menopause and its impact on a woman’s performance. We tackle brain health, better sleep and boundaries!

For women, midlife doesn’t come without sacrifice and loss. Jennifer opens up about being single at this stage and not having a family of her own, and the assumptions of others who thought it was a choice. Her story reminds us of the importance of  empathy, acceptance, and creating a safe space for women to share their experiences.

And just for fun… what does she have to say about editing dreams?? You’ll want to hear this!
