Description

🎉 Meet Our Fabulous Guest: Corie Wightlin

 🎧 Welcome back to the Hot Flash Health Podcast — where we talk hormones, heat, and all the hell-yeah moments of midlife! 🔥 Today, we’re tackling a topic SO many women are secretly struggling with: Menopause and ADHD.


If you've ever yelled-cried in the laundry room, walked into a room and forgot why, or felt like your brain is glitching… same girl, same. In this empowering episode, we're joined by Corie Wightlin, a brilliant ADHD and executive functioning coach with a background in cognitive science and education. 🧠✨

We break down:

  • How estrogen impacts your executive function, motivation, memory, and emotions

  • The science behind why perimenopause and menopause feel like your brain has gone offline

  • Practical tools to regain control, energy, and focus in midlife

  • Why women with ADHD often crash hardest during hormone shifts — and what you can do about it

  • How to stop people pleasing, start setting boundaries, and finally say "no" without guilt

  • Plus, Corie’s group coaching program for midlife women with ADHD (diagnosed or not) 🚀

👭 This episode is for every woman who's felt overwhelmed, burnt out, or broken during the menopause transition. You're not crazy. You're not alone. And your brain isn't broken — it's just changing.
