What if the “woo” you’ve been side-eyeing all these years is actually the missing piece in your perimenopause puzzle?

In this episode, Stacey peels back the layers on energy work — not as a mystical concept, but as a real, biological, and emotional process that every woman experiences as her hormones shift.

She breaks down how changing estrogen and progesterone levels make your nervous system more sensitive (a.k.a. why you cry over dog food commercials and snap at your partner), and how that same sensitivity might actually be your superpower.

You’ll learn:
🔹 How hormonal changes make you more intuitive and energetically aware
🔹 What “energy work” really means (and why it’s not all linen dresses and crystals)
🔹 Why slowing down — not pushing through — is the secret to feeling better
🔹 Simple daily rituals that help you regulate your energy and reconnect to yourself

This isn’t about becoming more “woo.” It’s about finally listening to your body’s language — your energy — and realizing it’s been trying to guide you all along.

Listen now and discover how to work with your energy instead of against it.

You know that feeling when you’ve been eating the same breakfast for years — same coffee, same smoothie, same handful of nuts — and one day your body just says nope?

Yeah… same.

In this episode, we’re talking about what it actually means to eat with your cycle — and why your body doesn’t want the same foods every day. I’ll walk you through how your hormones shift each week, what your body is craving (and why), and how the temperature of your food might be the most overlooked key to digestion, energy, and mood.

You’ll learn:
✨ How your hormones change through the four phases — and what to eat in each one
✨ Why digestion (and even your body temperature) play a huge role in how you feel
✨ My favorite foods to reduce bloating, boost energy, and balance mood
✨ How to start cycle syncing your meals without overhauling your diet

This episode will help you see food differently — not as something to control, but as one of the most enjoyable, affordable, and intuitive forms of hormone support out there.

Oh — and you’ll never look at a cold smoothie in winter the same way again. 😉

🩸 Phases in a Nutshell

Menstrual (Winter): Warm, mineral-rich comfort food — think soups, stews, and cozy meals that feel like a weighted blanket.
Follicular (Spring): Fresh and vibrant — leafy greens, berries, and foods that support detox and energy.
Ovulatory (Summer): Light, colorful, cooling foods — salads, fruit, and omega-3s.
Luteal (Fall): Grounding, fiber-rich comfort — roasted veggies, root foods, cinnamon tea, and dark chocolate.

We live in a world that tells us to “optimize every moment” — even the ones when we’re brushing our teeth. As overachieving, multitasking moms, we’ve replaced boredom with productivity and filled every quiet space with someone else’s voice.

In this episode, Stacey explores what happens when we never stop consuming and how the Default Mode Network in our brains literally needs silence to process, heal, and create.

You’ll learn:

• Why silence feels uncomfortable — and what’s really happening in your brain
• How perimenopause shifts our body’s need for rest and recovery
• The science (and woo) behind why quiet heals
• Easy ways to create more “blank spaces” in your day — from silent showers to music-only drives

This is your permission slip to turn down the noise, stop fixing yourself, and start listening to your own voice again.

And yes, Stacey fully gets the irony of it all — a podcaster telling you to listen to fewer podcasts. We'll talk to Alanis about it later.
