The Next Phase
I used to be fun. I used to be driven. I used to be sexy. I used to be...young. What happened?
Dear Millennial moms in your late 30s or 40s -- former forces of nature,
Are you burned out, overwhelmed, and wondering where your energy (and your old self) went? You’re not alone.
The Next Phase is the podcast for overachieving moms navigating perimenopause who are dying to take back their energy, their bodies, and their magic. Here, we will not pummel you with hormone treatment plans or talk about perimenopause as if it's a diagnosis. Instead, we're going to celebrate it. We're going to use it as an excuse to really start taking care of ourselves. As a matter of fact, we're going to find ourselves in our perimenopause era.
Hosted by Stacey Hutson—certified health coach, wellness chef, former co-host of the Mother Plus Podcast, and mom of two—you’ll learn how to: Understand what’s really happening in perimenopause and how to work with your changing body, use nutrition, supplements, and sleep as medicine to restore your energy, get in tune with your cycle and learn practical ways to sync your life with your hormones, and create rituals (with a little woo) that help you slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with yourself.
Each episode blends personal stories, expert insights, and actual doable steps you can take right away.
✨ Subscribe now to The Next Phase and join a community of millennial moms redefining wellness in their 40s. Let’s make perimenopause your most magnetic chapter yet.
The Next Phase
#1: Welcome to The Next Phase: A Wellness + Woo Podcast for Millennial Moms
Welcome to The Next Phase Podcast! I’m Stacey Hutson—wellness chef, health coach, mom of two, and former co-host of the Mother Plus Podcast. This show is for millennial moms who are staring down a season of life we never thought would actually come: perimenopause.
If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking things like:
- Why don’t I have any energy anymore?
- Is it just me, or did my body change overnight?
- Can I balance my hormones naturally, without hormone treatment?
- Wait… am I really old enough for perimenopause??
Then you’re in the right place.
In this first episode, I’m sharing why I started The Next Phase, what you can expect each week (think wellness meets woo, science meets soul, and a lot of honest conversations about our capacity), and how we’re going to figure this out together—without shame, confusion, or feeling like you’re completely alone in it.
This isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about creating space for the questions—and finding a better way through this next phase of life.
