April Update: The book is coming -- Powering Through Perimenopause.
No fluffy stuff. This is written for direct digestion. You want to get serious about the brain fog? Get past the 'wired, but tired'? Get shit done? Yeah. Me too. I did the research. Wrote the book. (Just formatting now and putting on the finishing touches). Then I built a supplement stack for proof of concept - Hey, I couldn't just believe what I was researching. I needed to know for me. I NEEDED this. For 2 years, I have not been myself. Probably longer, I just didn't notice it until it was too much to ignore. I'll be dropping a link to a chapter soon. I'll also drop information on the stack I built for myself. No gatekeeping but bear in mind, there is no magic pill and everything I did is based upon my situation, age, diet, exercise, sleep patterns, symptoms and what I was hoping to correct immediately and where I could build a long term strategy. (Grounded in science - every chapter has medical references you can read for yourself.)
This process required and demanded that I had to be honest about about my failings. I don't eat well every single meal. I don't keep regular sleeping hours 100%. And does stressing count as exercise? If you can't step up and admit, 'yeah I ate a box of donuts in 2 days', this isn't for you. And yes, I did that. Perimenopause sugar cravings are next level.... but I'm willing to face down that devil if it means I get my brain back.
And by the way, pass this to your daughter when you're done. She deserves to know. Aaaaand, new moms are also dealing with fluctuating hormones. This may benefit them too. -- Consult your doctor too. I have no idea what impacts medications or other medical issues and conditions.
Better to be safe, but go armed with information.
Future content: I'm looking at uploading some of my older mental health videos. They are not polished or sleek, but they are honest and earnest.
