Episode What's the Purpose of Menopause? (Why Your Brain Is Rewiring in Midlife) with Dr. Mindy Pelz
What if menopause isn't something to fix, but something to understand?
In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz shares Chapter One of her new book Age Like a Girl and breaks down the real purpose of menopause through neuroscience, hormones, and evolution. She explains how the decline of estrogen and progesterone reshapes the female brain, why so many women experience anxiety, mood changes, and brain fog in midlife, and how this transition may actually be designed to reconnect women with their authentic voice, clarity, and power.
If this conversation resonates with you, the audiobook of Age Like a Girl continues this journey with deeper insights, personal stories, and guidance to help you navigate this phase with confidence.
