97. Perimenopause & Mood Swings: Why It’s Not Just in Your Head with Dr. Sarah Daccarett

Feeling off balance, moody, or just not yourself? If you're struggling with brain fog, anxiety, or sleep disturbances, your hormones may be to blame—and you don’t have to just suffer through it. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sarah Daccarett, a hormone specialist and anti-aging expert, to dive deep into how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can help midlife women reclaim their energy, mood, and overall well-being.

Dr. Daccarett is on a mission to break the silence around hormone health and shift the way we think about aging. Instead of waiting until symptoms become unbearable, she advocates for a preventative approach to hormone therapy—one that helps women thrive in their 30s, 40s, and beyond. She also shares her innovative approach to hormone supplementation that ensures women get the right balance for optimal mood, sleep, and vitality.
