How Flipping 50’s Debra Atkinson and Dr. Eric Dorninger Are Changing the Conversation Around CBD and Menopause
Featuring a real-life success story from listener Laura Scott

Menopause can bring sleep disruption, anxiety, joint pain, and hormone swings—and too often, women are told it’s just something to “deal with.” On a recent episode of the Flipping 50 podcast, host Debra Atkinson welcomed Dr. Eric Dorninger, a naturopathic doctor and advisor to Blue Sky CBD, to share how CBD is helping women over 50 take back control of their bodies and their sleep.

Why CBD Works for Menopause

Dr. Dorninger explained that as estrogen declines, inflammation rises, affecting everything from cortisol levels to melatonin release. CBD, especially when paired with CBN (a cannabinoid that promotes deep, restorative sleep), helps reduce that inflammation and reset the body’s natural rhythms.

“CBD doesn’t knock you out—it helps your body remember how to rest,” Dorninger shared.

Laura Scott’s Story: From Sleepless Nights to Restful Mornings

One of the most powerful moments in the interview came when Dorninger mentioned Laura Scott, a Flipping 50 listener who tried Blue Sky CBD’s sleep formula. After years of poor sleep, she saw her REM and deep sleep scores jump dramatically—and her energy and clarity returned.
