Monday, 27 April, 2026
If you know the 3 AM wake-up — wide awake, mind already running, doing the math on how many hours you have left before the alarm — this episode is for you.In this episode Casey gets personal. She shares her own experience with L-Theanine — the supplement her perimenopause practitioner recommended in February after starting progesterone in January — and what it has genuinely done for her sleep.More restful nights. Fewer 3 AM wake-ups. And when they do happen — actually being able to fall back to sleep. Game changer are the words she keeps coming back to.But Casey doesn't just share the personal experience — she breaks down exactly what L-Theanine is, how it works in the brain, and what the research says about why it's particularly powerful for women in perimenopause and menopause.In this episode you'll learn:Why sleep gets so disrupted in perimenopause — and the specific hormonal and neurological reasons behind itWhat L-Theanine is, where it comes from, and exactly how it supports sleep without acting as a sedativeWhat the research says about dosage, timing, and what to expect in the first few weeksWhat to know before you try it — and who should check with their provider firstThis isn't a supplement ad. It's an honest conversation from someone who has lived it - backed by the science that explains why.Note: Casey is sharing her personal experience and her practitioner's recommendation. Always consult your own healthcare provider before adding any supplement to your routine.Join us for Summer Sculpt- we start Monday, April 27!
