On the Mones
Episode 1: Is It Just Me? Welcome to Peri-Menopause
On the ’Mones — Episode 1: Welcome to the Hormonal Girl Band
Is it just me… or is something seriously happening to my body?
In the very first episode of On the ’Mones, pharmacist of 25 years Kate pulls back the curtain on peri-menopause, hormones, rage-quitting jobs, libido loss, bone health, and the quiet suffering so many women carry alone.
From estrogen “leaving the group chat” to a friend breaking down in the kitchen whispering “I thought it was just me”, this episode sets the tone for the podcast: honest, evidence-based, funny, messy, and deeply human.
You’ll hear:
- Why peri-menopause catches so many women off guard
- How hormones are meant to rise and fall (spoiler: balance is a myth)
- The Beyoncé–P!nk–Adele explanation your biology teacher never gave you
- Why loss of libido isn’t a personal failure — and what options actually exist
- A takedown of seed cycling (sorry, chia pudding)
- And a new segment: Is it peri-menopause or am I just being a Karen?
If you’ve ever felt anxious, irritable, flat, foggy, ragey, invisible, or like your brain “isn’t braining” anymore — this is for you.
You’re not broken.
It’s not your fault.
And you’re definitely not alone.
Welcome to On the ’Mones. Let’s get on them.
