When It Is NOT a Hot Girl Summer

Ever notice your patience gets shorter, your anxiety feels higher, and everything seems harder during a heat wave? You're not imagining it. Extreme heat doesn't just make us sweat—it affects our brain, nervous system, sleep, hormones, mood, and even how we interact with the people we love. In this episode, Sarah and Whitney unpack the science behind why hot weather can leave us feeling exhausted, emotionally reactive, overstimulated, and mentally drained. They also share practical ways to protect your mental health during the hottest months of the year, especially for parents, pregnant women, and anyone already carrying a heavy mental load.
