Perimenopause Unfiltered with Dr. Mariza Snyder: Hormones, Relationships, and Solutions for Midlife Women
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the physical, emotional, or mental shifts of perimenopause—this episode is for you! On this week’s dynamic episode of Can’t Be Contained, I sit down with my dear friend, hormone expert, bestselling author, and newly published voice of the Perimenopause Revolution, Dr. Mariza Snyder. We dig deep into the outrage—and the empowerment—fueling today’s perimenopause movement, exploring why so many women are feeling unseen, gaslit, and desperate for validation and care.
Dr. Mariza sheds light on the earliest signs of perimenopause, dispelling myths and revealing how hormonal changes impact everything from brain fog and mood swings to capacity, energy, and relationships. We talk the science behind perimenopause, the distinct neuroendocrine transitions women experience, and how lifestyle medicine, movement, and somatic healing practices—including breathwork—can help restore vitality and clarity. Dr. Mariza also opens up about the beliefs and social conditioning women are reckoning with in midlife, and how her new book invites readers to redefine worth, joy, and the second half of their lives.
This conversation is rich with solutions, compassion, and actionable tools. Whether you’re curious about hormone therapy, metabolic health, movement as medicine, or simply seeking community around this transformative season, Dr. Mariza has you covered. Don’t miss her wisdom (and $700+ worth of exclusive book bonuses!), and tune in for a motivational permission slip to reconnect with your aliveness, honor your needs, and start thriving in midlife and beyond.
