Perimenopause is not just a hormonal transition—it is a nervous system initiation. In this episode of Reproductive Rebel, we sit with somatic practitioner Betsey Kudlinski to explore how the body, brain, and nervous system respond to the wild, liminal edges of midlife change.

We unpack why perimenopause can feel like a rupture—emotionally, physically, spiritually—and how somatic experiencing and gentle body-based practices can become anchors of safety, softness, and sovereignty. This is a conversation about slowing down, listening to the body’s language, and remembering that your body is not breaking—it is re-patterning.

If you’ve felt unmoored, anxious, inflamed, or more sensitive than ever during perimenopause, this episode offers a grounded, compassionate map back to yourself.

In This Episode, We Explore

✨ What perimenopause looks like through a nervous system lens

✨ Why symptoms can feel intense, unpredictable, or destabilizing

✨ How somatic experiencing supports regulation, safety, and resilience

✨ The connection between trauma, hormones, and midlife transitions

✨ Gentle somatic rituals for grounding, soothing, and reconnection

✨ Reframing perimenopause as an initiation into embodied wisdom

Your pelvic floor and core are more than just muscle groups — they are the foundation of your body’s strength, stability, and vitality. In this empowering episode of Reproductive Rebel, I sit down with women’s health expert Alicia Jones to unpack the often-overlooked connection between pelvic floor function, core engagement, and whole-body wellness.

We explore:

• Why pelvic floor health is crucial at every life stage — from your first period to post-menopause
• How core strength impacts hormone balance, sexual health, and bladder function
• Common myths about Kegels and what you should be doing instead
• Practical, body-positive strategies to start reconnecting with your core today
