In today’s episode, Casey is joined by Dr. Sarah Harbottle — naturopathic doctor, lawyer, and mother of four — for a grounded and eye-opening conversation on the season so many women enter without a roadmap: perimenopause.

Together, they explore what this transition really looks like — physically, emotionally, and mentally — and why so many women feel “off” long before they have language for what’s happening in their bodies.

You’ll hear Dr. Harbottle speak to:

• The early signs of hormonal shifts we’re never taught to recognize
• The link between burnout, identity, stress, and hormone imbalance
• Why symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, mood shifts, and poor sleep often go untreated
• Practical, doable first steps for women who feel depleted or overwhelmed
• How to advocate for yourself in a medical system that often minimizes women’s concerns
• What she wishes every woman knew about this season of life

This episode is an invitation to understand your body with more clarity, compassion, and permission to take up space in your own well-being. If you’re navigating perimenopause, stepping into midlife, or simply wanting to feel more like yourself again — you’re not alone, and this conversation will meet you right where you are.
