You need to hear this.
It's not about motivation. It's not about discipline. And it's not because you're "getting older."
In this episode, Dr. Mindy breaks down a shift that almost no one explains to women:
Estrogen stimulates creatine production.
And when estrogen declines in perimenopause and menopause, creatine can decline too.
Creatine isn't just a gym supplement. It's critical for cellular energy. It helps recycle ATP, the fuel your muscles and brain run on. When ATP drops, strength, recovery, and mental clarity can shift with it.
This conversation will change how you think about midlife performance.
In this episode, you'll learn:
What creatine actually does inside the female body

Why creatine matters more after 40

The connection between estrogen, ATP, and muscle strength

How creatine supports brain energy and stress resilience

What the research says about safety and dosing

Who should consider creatine, and who shouldn't

How to support strength long term through physiology, not willpower

If you're lifting heavier but building less muscle… If your brain feels slower under pressure… If you've been blaming yourself for feeling "off"…

Together, they talk about power, silence, authority, and why learning to ask better questions is an essential part of women's health, safety, and self-trust.
This episode is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with your inner guidance in a world full of noise.

In this episode of The Resetter Podcast, Dr. Mindy Pelz sits down with hormone expert Dr. Sonya Jensen for a deeply honest conversation about how hormones shape our emotions, behaviors, relationships, and sense of self across every stage of a woman's life.
Together, they explore why emotional reactions intensify during hormonal transitions, how resentment and rage often have ancestral roots, and why symptoms like anxiety, fatigue, and overwhelm are not character flaws, but signals from the body asking for support.
Dr. Sonya introduces her "HER Cycle" framework, showing how hormones, emotions, and relationships are always influencing one another and how healing often begins in the body, not the mind.

What if menopause isn't something to fix, but something to understand?
In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz shares Chapter One of her new book Age Like a Girl and breaks down the real purpose of menopause through neuroscience, hormones, and evolution. She explains how the decline of estrogen and progesterone reshapes the female brain, why so many women experience anxiety, mood changes, and brain fog in midlife, and how this transition may actually be designed to reconnect women with their authentic voice, clarity, and power.
