Ep. 488 How Perimenopause Changes the Brain with Dr. Caroline Leaf

I am thrilled to connect with Dr. Caroline Leaf today. She is a cognitive neuroscientist, a bestselling author, and an internationally recognized expert in mind management and neuroplasticity. In our discussion, we explore perimenopause and menopause as brain-based events rather than hormonal changes and discuss the distinctions between the brain, body, and mind. Dr. Leaf shares key insights from her latest book, Help in a Hurry, which offers a workable solution for self-regulation, acquiring knowledge, and navigating crises. We also delve into mental health management and building coping skills, and explore the importance of self-regulation, the impact of people-pleasing, and why labeling can be problematic. Tune in for today’s powerful and insightful conversation with Dr. Caroline Leaf. I strongly recommend her new book, Help in a Hurry, for clear and actionable strategies to steady your mind as you navigate life.
