Puppies, Hormones & Peace of Mind: Managing Menopause Stress

In this episode of Menopause and Motherhood, we dive into the wild (and adorable) world of getting a new puppy—and how unexpected stress can magnify menopause symptoms like hot flushes, sleep disruption, mood swings, and anxiety. I share a personal story of bringing home a new furry friend and the hormonal chaos that followed, along with three practical, proven strategies for managing menopause-related stress.

Whether you're navigating perimenopause, full-blown menopause, or just trying to stay grounded amid life's changes, this episode offers real talk, gentle humour, and expert-backed tips to help you feel more balanced—puppy or not.
