---

Episode 51

---

Perimenopause isn’t just hot flashes and mood swings — it’s a complete identity shift. In this raw and funny Part 2 Perimenopause conversation, Chloe and Dagmar unpack the real emotional changes that happen during peri, from sensitivity spikes and fashion struggles to dating differently, smelling red flags faster, and finally caring less about people-pleasing.

You’ll hear stories about body changes, empathy expansion, feminine energy, vulnerability, Princess Diana, and why this is actually one of the most empowering phases of a woman’s life.

If you’re going through peri (or love someone who is), this ProblemSolvHer Podcast episode will make you laugh, nod, and feel seen.
