    Your Symptoms Are Real

    Are you a woman in your 40s struggling with exhaustion, mood swings, weight changes, anxiety, brain fog, or pain — only to be told it's "stress," "aging," or "in your head"? You are not imagining it. And you are not a "whining woman." In this powerful episode, we unpack the harmful stigma that labels women in their 40s as "WWs" (whining women) when they report real perimenopause symptoms. You'll learn why so many women feel dismissed by healthcare providers, why your symptoms matter, and how to advocate for yourself confidently during this transformative season of life. Whether you're experiencing perimenopause, feeling unheard by your doctor, or simply sensing that "something is off," this conversation is for you. You deserve answers, support, and validation — not dismissal. ✨ In this episode, we explore: Why women in their 40s are often dismissed or misdiagnosed The stigma behind the "whining woman" label Real perimenopause symptoms (over 65 recognized signs) Why your body is giving you real data — not drama How to advocate for your health with confidence Five practical steps to start reclaiming your wellbeing A powerful reframe: from "whining woman" to wise woman If you're tired of being told your symptoms are "normal," if you feel unheard, or if you want to better understand your 40s health journey, you're in the right place — and you're not alone.

    Gratitude in your 40s

    If you're a woman in your 40s, you might be standing at a crossroads — navigating changes in your body, relationships, career, and identity. In this episode, we explore how gratitude can become a powerful anchor in this transformative season of life. In a world that constantly pushes us to do more, be more, and have more, it's easy to feel like something is missing. But what if the key to feeling whole isn't found in chasing more — but in noticing what's already here? Join me as we unpack the deeper meaning of gratitude — not as a surface-level nicety, but as a grounding practice that helps us reconnect with ourselves, our bodies, and the beauty of everyday life. We'll talk about how gratitude can shift your perspective, reduce stress, and help you reclaim your joy — even when life feels messy or uncertain. You'll also learn four simple ways to cultivate gratitude in your daily life, including journaling, walking meditations, heartfelt letters, and a guided gratitude meditation you can do right now. This episode is a gentle reminder that you are enough — right here, right now. And that peace, joy, and clarity are already within you, waiting to be noticed. #gratitude #grounded #stressmanagement Links: The world needs you — your joy, your health, your open heart, and your peaceful mind. Let's work together to create a life that supports the self-care you need and deeply deserve. I invite you to book a complimentary BecomingYOU@40 coaching session with me.
