In my conversation with Dr Sarah McKay, we dive deep into the fascinating changes that occur in the brain during midlife and menopause. We explore how hormonal shifts impact sleep, thermoregulation, and cognitive function. We tackle common symptoms like brain fog and discuss the potential benefits of menopause hormone therapy.

Our discussion highlights the brain's incredible resilience and the opportunities for growth and empowerment during this phase of life. Sarah also underscores the importance of sleep and basic health habits, such as diet and stress management, for overall well-being.

Emotional regulation and building resilience take centre stage, with Sarah encouraging us to find joy and balance in life. She emphasizes engaging in fun activities, embracing embarrassment, appreciating the present, and cherishing relationships. The key takeaways? Prioritize sleep, make every day the 'good old days,' and don't overthink self-care.
