Mood swings, anxiety, irritability, low motivation—sound familiar?

If you’re in perimenopause or menopause and don’t feel like yourself anymore, this episode is for you.

Dr. Carolyn Moyers is joined by Dr. Chelsea Angelocci, a board-certified psychiatrist with advanced training in integrative psychiatry, to unpack why mood changes are so common during the menopause transition—and why they’re often misunderstood or dismissed.

We talk about how hormonal shifts affect mental health, why midlife mood symptoms don’t always fit neatly into a psychiatric box, and what a more thoughtful, whole-person approach can look like. You’ll walk away feeling validated, informed, and less alone—and with a clearer sense of what actually helps.

If you’ve ever wondered:

Is this anxiety? Depression? Hormones? Or all of the above?

Press play.
