The Perimenopause Revolution Book Roadmap

This episode is brought to you by One Skin and Momentous.

Perimenopause is something nearly every woman will experience, yet many don’t recognize what’s happening until symptoms begin to disrupt daily life. This week, I asked my sisters, Kaya and Harshal, to sit down with Dr. Mariza Snyder for an open and honest conversation about perimenopause. Together, they bring personal experience and curiosity to the discussion, unpacking what’s really happening in the body during this stage and how women can navigate it with more ease and support.

Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Kaya and Harshal sit down with Dr. Mariza Snyder to discuss the perimenopause stage of life. Dr. Mariza explains the first signs of perimenopause, which can vary widely and affect the entire body well beyond the breasts and ovaries. She breaks down what happens inside the body during this transition, how it can lead to surprising changes in daily life, and the key tests that can help women navigate this phase while protecting their brain and metabolic health. Dr. Mariza also shares why stress management, community, and movement are essential tools for empowering ourselves through this time.

Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, women’s hormone expert, and the author of nine best-selling women’s health books. Her newest book, The Perimenopause Revolution, breaks down the real reasons women often feel “off” in their 30s, 40s, and 50s, such as stubborn weight gain, brain fog, low energy, anxiety, and poor sleep, and provides a clear, proven roadmap to help them feel like themselves again. For over 15 years, Dr. Mariza has spoken worldwide on hormone and metabolic health, nutrition, and detoxification. She also hosts the top-rated Energized Podcast,  empowering women to become the CEO of their health.
