Dear Me (And Every Woman Who’s Ever Said, “Is This Normal…or Am I Losing It?),

Well… here we are. Midlife. Perimenopause. Post-menopause. Whatever label you want to slap on it.   It’s here, and honestly, she’s a little bit rude.

I thought by now I’d have it all figured out. Instead, I’m Googling “can hormones cause personality changes”, wide awake at 3 am, and wondering if I have lost my mind. The clothes don’t fit quite the same, the brain occasionally forgets why I walked into a room, and I’m pretty sure I am tinkering on the edge of officially being insane. 

Sound familiar?

Turns out, no one really prepared us for this chapter. Sure, they gave us “the talk” in middle school, but they left out the sequel where your hormones throw a tantrum, your sleep ghosts you, and your energy levels flirt with empty.

But here’s the thing, I’m over pretending everything’s peachy while my hormones are staging a full-blown coup. It’s time for a new game plan.

So here’s the plan:

We stop hanging on by thread and pretending we are “good” through this season. We ask for support. We laugh about the ridiculous stuff (because it is ridiculous). And we make real, doable changes that help us feel good.  We can be strong, clear, rested, and confident in our own skin again.  We deserve to feel good! 

This is exactly why I want to help women through health and wellness coaching during this season. No judgement, gimmicks, weird supplements, or no “snap out of it” pep talks. Working with me feels like sitting down with a friend who listens, makes you laugh and helps you stop spinning your wheels.   It’s just real conversations and support with personalized strategies made for this season of life.

Ready to feel good again, too?  Snag Your Sanity Session. Book a free 15-minute conversation with me. No pressure or judgment, just a chance to share what you’re dealing with and see how I can help you see through the fog and into a life that feels good again.

And if this letter feels painfully accurate, send it to a friend who gets it. You know the one, the other woman texting you at 3 am because she can’t sleep either.

And guys, if you’ve somehow made it this far, you rock!  Forward this to the women in your life.  It might earn you major points and maybe explain a few things you were too afraid to ask about.

Because midlife’s weird, wild, and way too unpredictable to navigate alone. Let’s laugh about it, talk about it, and remind each other we’re not losing it. 

We’re not meant to just survive this season. We’re meant to live it. Fully, boldly, and with a whole lot of laughter.

Let’s feel good together!
