Perimenopause & Midlife
The work she does now
Most of what Rosie teaches today came out of a stretch when she could not get a straight answer about her own body. These are the guides she wrote from it.
Menopause Rage
Anger that arrives out of proportion to whatever set it off, and what settles it.
Perimenopause Anxiety
The 3am dread and tight chest that turn out to be hormonal, not character.
Insomnia & 3am Waking
Waking at the same hour every night, and why it happens.
Brain Fog & ADHD
When names and words stop arriving, and why it is not early dementia.
Fatigue & Exhaustion
Tiredness that sleep does not fix.
Early Perimenopause
The signs that show up in your thirties.
