Have you ever felt like stress just hits you harder than it used to?
Maybe your sleep is lighter. Your patience is shorter. PMS feels more intense. Or you feel wired but exhausted at the same time.
Many men and women assume this is just part of modern life.
But there is real biochemistry behind why stress can feel more disruptive in a woman’s body.
In our latest podcast, you’ll find out:
• How cortisol and progesterone share hormonal building blocks
• Why chronic stress can lower progesterone over time
• How this shift impacts mood, sleep, cycles, and resilience
• Why stress tolerance often changes in perimenopause
• What you can do to rebuild your stress buffering capacity
If stress has been affecting your energy, mood, or cycle more than it used to, this podcast will help you understand why and what you can do about it.
