Welcome to the Menopause Mindshift! I am so happy that you stopped by!
Here's a bit about me.
I'm the youngest of seven children, a wife of thirty-two years, and a proud mother of two amazing adults. I have a passion for travel and, for over fifteen years, I've been navigating the ups and downs of menopause. My journey began at the age of thirty-eight when I noticed my body starting to change. I knew it was peri-menopause, likely triggered by the intense personal stress I was under at the time. Despite my best efforts, I gradually gained weight each year and struggled to lose it. This went on for nearly a decade until I entered full menopause at forty-seven.
It was then that the more noticeable symptoms began to surface. Hot flashes, continued weight gain, and overwhelming feelings became increasingly common. Before long, I found myself struggling with challenges not just physically, but mentally and emotionally as well.
I started this blog as a way to share my menopause experiences, hoping they might resonate with other women going through similar challenges. Each of us has a unique journey, and this phase of my life brought with it many unexpected hurdles. There were times when I hardly recognized myself. I battled depression, anxiety, insomnia, and a host of other menopausal symptoms.
It took me seven years to figure out how to reclaim my life. As I evolved, as did my blog. I can see the progression from early 2023 to 2024. I had to dig deep to find the strength to change how I felt. Tired of being tired, I turned to tools like meditation, visualization, and affirmations to transform my life. Once I shifted my mindset about menopause, everything changed for me. I now believe that menopause is a wonderful stage of life. I see myself in the body and living the life that I desire that feels so much better than the negative thoughts I was previously having.
My hope is that by sharing the transformational journey that I went through, I can inspire other women to take control of their lives during menopause and unleash their inner Queen!
