Welcome to the very first episode of Tea with Sophie.

We’re beginning with something simple and surprisingly powerful.

Tea.

But this isn’t just a conversation about what’s in your cup. It’s about how small, daily rituals can support your energy, your metabolism, and your nervous system—especially in midlife.

Because if you’re anything like the women I work with, you may have noticed:

What used to work… doesn’t quite work the same anymore. Your energy feels different. Your body is asking for a new kind of support.

In this episode, we explore:

  • The difference between green tea and black tea
  • Why all true tea comes from the Camellia sinensis plant
  • The unique combination of caffeine and L-theanine—and why tea feels different than coffee
  • The benefits of matcha for focus and metabolism
  • Pu-erh tea and its connection to metabolic health
  • Herbal infusions like rooibos and hibiscus
  • Whether decaf tea still offers benefits
  • And how tea can become a grounding daily ritual for your nervous system

Tea is the most consumed beverage in the world after water.

Across cultures, it represents something deeper than hydration— it represents pause, presence, and ceremony.

And perhaps what we need most in midlife is to steep.
