A podcast where we explore how to make friends with our hormones so we can survive—and thrive—through our 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond! I'm Dr. Carrie Jones—a holistic functional medicine doctor, hormone nerd, and women's health advocate who's spent over 20 years helping women understand their bodies and navigate all the twists and turns of hormone changes. I've seen it all—from the frustrating weight gain and brain fog to the mood swings, low libido, crazy periods, and sleep that just won't cooperate. Whether you're pre-, peri-, or postmenopausal—or just a woman dealing with the chaos of hormonal imbalances—you're in the right place. Because understanding your hormones doesn't have to feel like herding cats—and your mood swings, fatigue, or weird symptoms? They're not just \"in your head.\" So let's decode the science, ditch the confusion, and help you feel like yourself again. You bring the symptoms, I'll bring the science—and let's get you the solutions together.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-09T18:18:43.736504+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hello-hormones-with-dr-carrie-jones-7333411"},"episode":{"title":"Dr. Sonya Jensen, ND: Rage in Perimenopause, Cortisol Burnout, and Nervous System Dysregulation","slug":"dr-sonya-jensen-nd-rage-in-perimenopause-cortisol-burnout-and-nervous-system-dysregulation","published_at":"2026-02-17T07:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hello-hormones-with-dr-carrie-jones-7333411/dr-sonya-jensen-nd-rage-in-perimenopause-cortisol-burnout-and-nervous-system-dysregulation","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hello-hormones-with-dr-carrie-jones-7333411","url":"https://54c17651-b998-4423-8fb3-0961ba8b4fb9.libsyn.com/dr-sonya-jensen-nd-rage-in-perimenopause-cortisol-burnout-and-nervous-system-dysregulation","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/p1008880/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/54c17651-b998-4423-8fb3-0961ba8b4fb9/HH_-_EP_42.mp3?dest-id=5022965","summary":"If you hit midlife and suddenly feel ragey, burnt out, or emotionally raw for no clear reason, you are not breaking. Perimenopause has a way of removing the emotional buffer you've relied on for years, which means suppressed boundaries, old stress patterns, and survival mode all come to the surface at once.
