  • Ep 341: The 3 Things YOU Need To Feel Amazing In Perimenopause
    Sep 1 2025

    If you’re between 35–55 and struggling with weight gain, low energy, sleep issues, anxiety, mood swings, or low libido—you’re not alone. And if you’ve already tried workouts, diets, labs with your doctor, or even hormone replacement therapy but nothing seems to stick, there’s a reason for that.

    In this episode of The Period Whisperer Podcast, Bria shares the 3 pillars every woman in perimenopause needs to finally feel amazing again:

    1. Strategies designed for the female body — how to get out of health debt with the right nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress support.
    2. Customization with functional lab testing — uncovering hidden stressors and root causes that traditional labs often miss.
    3. Support and expert guidance — how consistent coaching and pattern recognition shortcut years of trial and error.

    You’ll learn why most women are unknowingly following health strategies designed for men, how metabolic typing makes nutrition easy instead of stressful, and why addressing root causes is the fastest way to lasting results in midlife.

    ✨ Whether you want better sleep, more energy, weight loss, or just to feel like yourself again, this episode will show you the path forward.

  • Ep 339: Pathogens & Parasites In Perimenopause
    Aug 25 2025

    Are your stubborn weight gain, bloating, low energy, or poor sleep “just part of perimenopause”? Not always. Hidden gut infections like H. pylori and parasites can silently sabotage your hormones, metabolism, and overall wellbeing—especially during perimenopause.


    In this episode of The Period Whisperer Podcast, we dive into:

    • How H. pylori and gut parasites impact digestion, nutrient absorption, and hormone balance.
    • Why women in perimenopause may be more susceptible to picking up pathogens.
    • How the GI MAP stool test uncovers infections that can keep you stuck in fatigue, brain fog, and weight plateaus.
    • The connection between gut health, estrogen metabolism, cortisol, and thyroid function.
    • Key signs and symptoms you should watch for, and why testing is crucial before starting any gut protocol.

    Whether you want to sleep better, boost energy, lose weight, or finally feel like yourself again, understanding your gut is the first step. Don’t guess—get the answers and take control of your body.
