About this episode

If you used to be someone who could get herself up and do the thing — and now that same drive just isn't there — you have not become lazy. You have not lost your edge. Your dopamine system has been directly impacted by your hormonal transition.

Motivation loss in perimenopause isn't a character flaw — it's a neurochemical event. Courtney explains exactly how declining estrogen disrupts dopamine signaling in the brain, backed by neuroscience research, and gives you three evidence-informed strategies to start rebuilding your drive from the inside out.
