Tapping for Perimenopause: How to Stop Anxious Thoughts, Break Self-Sabotage, and Rewire Your Nervous System with Jessica Ortner

The anxiety hits at 3am. The spiraling thoughts won't stop. You know logically that everything is fine, but your body won't believe it. And the more you try to think your way out of it, the worse it gets. Jessica Ortner is a bestselling author, co-creator of The Tapping Solution app, and one of the world's leading experts on EFT tapping — a technique that combines ancient acupressure with modern psychology to send a direct safety signal to your nervous system. And in this conversation with Dr. Mindy, she unpacks exactly why perimenopause and menopause create a perfect storm of nervous system dysregulation, and how tapping can interrupt the cycle in minutes — no therapist, no appointment, no special equipment required. Dr. Mindy's fasting tapping meditations are available in The Tapping Solution app. And Jessica's new book — The Tapping Solution — is available wherever books are sold.

The Menopause Gut: How Your Microbiome Controls Your Hormones, Mood, and Metabolism with Cynthia Thurlow

We've had a lot of important menopause conversations, but nobody's given us the manual for the gut until now. Cynthia Thurlow is a nurse practitioner, host of the Everyday Wellness podcast, and author of the brand new book, The Menopause Gut. And in this conversation, she and Dr. Mindy pull back the curtain on one of the most overlooked and misunderstood pieces of the entire menopause puzzle: the estrobolome. This conversation is a must-listen for any woman in perimenopause or beyond who feels like she's doing everything right and still not feeling better. It's also essential if you've ever taken the pill, struggled with gut issues, or wondered whether your mood, sleep, and waistline might have more to do with your microbiome than your hormone panel.

If you've ever felt like the self-care conversation has become just another "to-do list," this episode is going to change everything. Dr. Melissa Sonners, author of The Connection Code, and a dear friend, walked me through the most practical, science-backed, and genuinely achievable approach to self-care I've ever encountered.

Your Brain on Ketones: The New Science Linking Metabolic Health, Mental Health, and the Power of Ketosis with Dr. Georgia Ede

People with pre-diabetes are 2.7 times more likely to develop major depression. People with new bipolar disorder are 3.5 times more likely to have metabolic syndrome. If that stopped you in your tracks, good – it stopped me too. I brought Dr. Georgia Ede back to The Resetter Podcast to dig into her new expert consensus on ketogenic diets and mental health, and this conversation is one every woman needs to hear. Dr. Ede is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist and one of the world's leading experts in nutritional and metabolic psychiatry. What she laid out in this episode completely reframed how I think about brain health, brain energy, and what it actually means to feed your mind. We get into why the brain is a hybrid engine that runs best on a mixture of glucose and ketones and what happens when it runs on glucose alone. If you've ever wondered whether what you eat is affecting how you think, feel, and function – this one will give you the science and tools to find out.

Why Women Were Taught to Distrust Themselves — And How to Take That Power Back with Meggan Watterson

What if the reason you don't trust yourself was engineered centuries ago — on purpose? In this episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz sits down with feminist theologian and author Meggan Watterson to uncover the deliberate suppression of women's inner authority and what reclaiming it looks like right now. Meggan draws on 30 years of scholarship — including the long-buried Gospel of Mary and the Acts of Paul and Thecla — to show that the most powerful women in early Christianity weren't lost to history by accident. They were erased because their message was too dangerous: that the greatest power doesn't come from institutions, hierarchies, or external permission. It comes from within. In this conversation you'll learn: * Why women's self-doubt has roots in a 4th-century political decision * What the Gospel of Mary teaches about the "spiritual eye of the heart" * Why ending the war with your body is the first act of reclaiming your power * Why rage is sacred — and why feeling it fully is healing * What it means to "baptize yourself" in today's world If you've ever felt unworthy, silenced, or too much — this episode is for you.
