    Liked how it made me think without trying too hard. There were little moments where I caught myself reflecting on what they were saying, but it never felt heavy or overwhelming. It just flowed really nicely🫶🏼

  • Self care and more

    This podcast genuinely supports me in so many areas of my life. Each episode gives me practical insights I can apply at home and professionally, while also helping me reflect, reset, and grow as a person.

    As part of my Magic 2026 journey, Day 10 was about reviewing my favourite podcasts — and this one was an obvious top choice. It consistently helps me think differently, feel more grounded, and take positive action. I always come away with something useful, whether that’s a mindset shift, a mom... more

  • Love these ladies!

    I listen to this podcast while I’m working, I’m a housekeeper and it really makes my days so much more enjoyable. They cover some great subjects but more then anything I love their humour. They make me laugh out loud so often that my clients have started asking me what I’m listening too. 😘

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

ADHD in Midlife: The Signs, Perimenopause & More with Kate Moryoussef
Q: How does ADHD interact with perimenopause, and can hormones help?
Hormonal fluctuations can amplify ADHD symptoms like anxiety and brain fog; using hormone replacement therapy with a knowledgeable doctor can improve cognitive function and sleep, though the right dosing requires careful medical supervision.
Ask The Doctor: Insomnia, Menopause & Sleep with Professor Guy Leschziner
Q: What is the best approach if you wake up worrying without a clear reason?
Address underlying causes of wakefulness, consider CBT-I techniques to quiet the mind, and evaluate whether therapies like HRT may help with specific symptoms; cognitive strategies are emphasized alongside sleep hygiene.
Ask The Doctor: Insomnia, Menopause & Sleep with Professor Guy Leschziner
Q: Should you get up if you wake up early or try to go back to sleep?
Maintain a regular wake time, avoid long periods awake in bed, consider going to another room to relax for a short while, and avoid daytime naps to not disrupt the circadian rhythm; the goal is to strengthen bed-to-sleep association.
Ask The Doctor: Insomnia, Menopause & Sleep with Professor Guy Leschziner
Q: How do you combat sleep anxiety?
Use CBT-I techniques to reframe bed as a sleep-friendly space, address conscious and unconscious factors, and involve a sleep psychologist for structured strategies to reduce bedtime ironing and worry; consistency and reprogramming of associations are key.
Ask The Doctor: Insomnia, Menopause & Sleep with Professor Guy Leschziner
Q: Why is my sleep so bad the week before my period?
Hormonal fluctuations affect sleep biology, with estrogen and progesterone changes impacting the brain's sleep-regulating centers; this can worsen sleep and even trigger migraines or seizures in some individuals.
