概要

 In this episode of The Pain Free Athlete Podcast, Dana is joined again by longtime mind-body and women’s health expert Jennifer More, creator of The Dolphin Method and founder of the Power of the Pause menopause community on Facebook. They dive into how hormonal shifts in perimenopause and menopause impact the nervous system, pain perception, and everyday symptoms like anxiety, hip pain, sleep issues, and mysterious itching.Drawing on over 30 years of experience supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, and now menopause, Jennifer explains why our generation is the “guinea pig generation” that is finally talking openly about this transition—and how that knowledge alone can calm an overactive fight-or-flight response. Dana and Jennifer share personal stories of panic attacks, chronic migraines, hip pain, and caregiving stress, and how nervous-system tools helped them move from fear and symptom chasing to curiosity, compassion, and choice.You’ll learn why estrogen interacts with neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, how it changes pain perception, and why many women are told “everything looks fine” even when their bodies hurt. Jennifer breaks down simple, accessible nervous-system practices you can do in 2–5 minutes a day, plus why movement, rotation work for hips and shoulders, and thoracic mobility are essential in this season of life.They also talk about the power of community healing—how sharing symptoms and stories in safe spaces reduces shame, quiets anxiety, and helps women stop suffering in silence. Jennifer shares details about her menopause-focused retreats in Sedona, Sonoma, and Monterey, where women get personalized nervous system support, corrective exercise, and time away to resetAbout Jennifer:Jennifer More is a global leader in prenatal and postnatal wellness, with over 30 years of experience as a yoga teacher, doula, childbirth educator, and clinical and medical hypnotherapist.
