The Nervous System Eats First™ is a podcast about the sensory sensitive, midlife body. About what happens when masking stops working, menopause hits hard, and your nervous system demands more than supplements and willpower.
I'm Dr. Stacey Denise, a board-certified physician and the founder of The Neuroaesthetic MD™ method. This show invites you into a new kind of recovery, one where healing begins through the senses.
Each episode blends science, sensory ritual and somatic insight to help women reclaim regulation, not as a reward but as a requirement.
This is not "self-care." This is nervous system nutrition for:
Autistic and ADHD women unmasking in midlife
Black women and women of color navigating medical gaslighting
Women in menopause who feel invisible, exhausted, and emotionally unmoored
Highly sensitive women trying to feel something without getting overwhelmed
If you have ever asked, "What is happening to my body?", this podcast is your permission slip to find out, slowly and with grace.
