Episode You're Not Anxious, You're Inflamed: A Brain Doctor's Guide to the Busy Brain, Perimenopause & Healing — with Dr. Romie Mushtaq
The Busy Brain Explained: Dr. Romie breaks down exactly what a Busy Brain is — why anxiety, ADHD, and insomnia aren't three separate problems but one root cause rooted in neuroinflammation — and why women of color are uniquely at risk.The South Asian Women's Health Gap: A real, culturally specific conversation about why South Asian women are dismissed ('you're just stressed'), the MTHFR methylation gene (1 in 4 women of melanin carry it), Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and why 'labs came back fine' is not the same as being fine.The 8-Week Busy Brain Cure: Dr. Romie's research-backed protocol built on five key areas — Sleep, Hormones, Inflammation, Food, and Technology — including the 21-day digital detox that outperformed prescription sleeping and anxiety pills.Perimenopause, Identity & Healing: What happens to a woman's sense of self when she stops running on adrenaline — and how healing the brain unlocks her internal compass, her intuition, her 'nur.'Dr. Romie's Personal Story: For the first time publicly — her life-saving surgery, her divorce from an arranged marriage, and why she believes 50 is her best era yet.
