Ep. 131 Perimenopause Brain Fog: Why You're Losing Words Mid-Sentence (And It's Not Dementia)

If you're over 40 and you've started losing words mid-sentence, walking into rooms and forgetting why, or feeling like your brain just isn't working the way it used to — this episode is for you. I break down why perimenopause brain fog isn't a memory problem or an early sign of dementia, how chronic stress puts your brain in triage mode, and why nothing clears until you address what's actually driving it. You'll learn what's really happening in your body and why regulation — not more supplements or trying harder — is the missing piece. Perfect for women in perimenopause or menopause who are scared something is seriously wrong with their brain and want real answers. 00:00 Podcast Welcome 01:10 Brain Fog Explained 02:19 Why It Feels Scary 02:33 Quick Quiz Break 03:22 Not Dementia 04:08 Cortisol Stress Loop 05:02 Nervous System Reset 06:10 Regulation First Results 06:55 Group Program Invite <a class= "yt-core-attrib
