Feel like a lightweight when you drink in perimenopause? Does that nightly glass of Cabernet pack more of a punch than it used to (and you find it's harder to recover in the morning?)

In this episode, we're digging into the relationship between alcohol and midlife, but it's a different take than you're used to.

Because you already know the science. You’re a smart, driven, professional woman. The struggle isn't a lack of knowledge.

It's the challenge of doing better when your brain and nervous system are wired for belonging.

I'm pulling back the curtain on why your brain views social exclusion as a life-or-death situation and how alcohol often serves as an "off switch" for heavy feelings like inadequacy or frustration.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

📌How to Change Your Identity: Why alcohol becomes an "identity marker" and why your nervous system feels threatened when you change the rules of your social rituals.

📌 Why You're Suddenly a Lightweight: Why your liver prioritizes clearing toxins over processing fluctuating hormones, leading to a "hormonal backup" and worsened hot flashes.

📌 Your Need to Belong: How your primitive brain scans for moments of connection and why saying "no" at a work happy hour feels like a threat to your safety.

📌 Avoiding Tough Emotions: How to identify if you are using alcohol to cover up feelings of apathy, inadequacy, or deprivation on your health journey.

📌 Practical Tools for Change: How to find a "tribe partner," use "anchor habits" with your spouse, and choose your emotions ahead of time so you wake up feeling proud instead of hungover.
