Dr. Anna Cabeca explores menopause, neurochemistry, trauma healing, and why lifestyle—not hormones alone—shapes this powerful life transition.

In this deeply reflective conversation, Dr. Anna Cabeca explains how menopause reshapes not only hormones but brain chemistry, emotional processing, and identity. She explores why progesterone loss can intensify anxiety, insomnia, and trauma recall, how lifestyle choices regulate oxytocin and stress hormones, and why menopause should be honored as a transformative life stage—not suppressed. The discussion reframes menopause as an opportunity for healing, wisdom, and reconnection.
