After 21 years in a demanding leadership role in education, I hit burnout.

Season 2: My personal journey — the raw truth about brain fog, energy crashes, hormone balancing, and the steps that really work.


If you’ve been searching for answers to perimenopausal brain fog, low energy, and lack of joy, this podcast is your go-to resource.

  • Why Fasting Might Be Fueling Your Brain Fog: The Truth About Blood Sugar in Perimenopause
    Oct 31 2025

    Send us a text

    Are you waking up foggy, irritable, or running on caffeine until lunchtime — only to crash by mid-afternoon? You might think it’s stress or menopause, but the real culprit could be your blood sugar balance.

    In this episode, Emma Louise Bennett — Certified Menopause Coach and ICF Life Coach — breaks down how unstable blood sugar and intermittent fasting can actually make brain fog, fatigue, and mood swings worse during perimenopause and menopause.

    You’ll learn:
    ✅ How fluctuating oestrogen and progesterone change the way women process glucose
    ✅ Why intermittent fasting that used to work in your 30s may now spike cortisol and worsen brain fog
    ✅ The signs your blood sugar is out of balance (and what your body is really trying to tell you)
    ✅ How to use the PFF Formula — Protein, Fat, Fibre — to create calm, steady energy all day long
    ✅ Simple meal and snack swaps that clear your head and lift your mood within days

    Emma shares her own story of how fasting suddenly stopped working, leaving her foggy, anxious, and exhausted — until she discovered how to eat for clarity, confidence, and hormone balance instead.

    If you’ve been struggling with:

    • Brain fog and forgetfulness
    • Afternoon energy crashes
    • Irritability, cravings, or anxiety
    • Coffee dependency or poor sleep
    • The frustration of “doing everything right” but still feeling off…

    …then this episode will help you reconnect with your body and feel like yourself again.
