    212 Menopause as Art: Trusting The Design

    I currently have six paint samples on my living room wall.  They are all technically blue. None of them are the same.  Which feels… symbolic.  In this episode, I’m thinking about menopause not as art and refinement. As the shift from fluorescent to tonal. From performance to composition.  There’s a turtle.  There’s London. There’s a river that looks like it’s meandering but absolutely knows where it’s going. And somewhere in the middle of all that: the quiet realisation that midlife might not be demolition, it might be editing. If you’ve ever stood in front of a wall thinking, “This one almost works… but not quite,” this conversation might feel familiar. Bring your undertones :) *************************** ✅T o put your name down on the waitlist for Becoming, here's the link:  www.sallygarozzo.com/becoming *************************** 📲 Connect with Sally: Email: info@sallygarozzo.com  [On-Demand Masterclass] How To Heal The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity [£17]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtrauma  [Online Practitioners Diploma - Self Paced] Menopause Wellbeing Practitioner [£127]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/meno [One to One] Bespoke Transformational Hypnotherapy & Coaching: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/rapid-transformational-therapist  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sallygarozzomindmentor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sallygarozzo/ Send me a WhatsApp: https://wa.me/message/FTARBMO7CRLEL1 Send me a direct message Support the show

    211 The Dutch Test vs The Medical Model: Why They Disagree

    The DUTCH test has become one of the most talked-about hormone assessments in the menopause space. Some women describe it as illuminating and empowering. Some medical professionals describe it as unnecessary, over-interpreted, or a waste of money. So why the disagreement? In this episode, I step back from the noise and explore what’s actually being argued. What assumptions sit underneath functional hormone testing? What assumptions sit underneath conventional medicine? And why does this debate feel so emotionally charged? Rather than taking sides, we look at the psychological and structural differences between these two paradigms — and what happens when menopausal women find themselves caught in the middle. If you’ve ever felt validated by testing… dismissed by medicine… or confused by the intensity of the conversation online, this episode is for you.

    210 Moral Outrage in Midlife: Why Certainty Feels Safe

    We live in a culture that rewards certainty.  In this episode, I reflect on the energy surrounding recent public controversies and ask a different question: what if moral outrage is sometimes a nervous system strategy rather than moral clarity?  Drawing on anxiety physiology, childhood conditioning, and midlife change, I explore how certainty can feel like safety, and why building capacity for uncertainty might be the real work as we step into midlife.   Join the waitlist for BECOMING 🔗 Join the waitlist: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/becoming ********************************************* 📲 Connect with Sally: Email: info@sallygarozzo.com  [On-Demand Masterclass] How To Heal The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity [£17]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtrauma  [Online Practitioners Diploma - Self Paced] Menopause Wellbeing Practitioner [£127]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/meno [One to One] Bespoke Transformational Hypnotherapy & Coaching: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/rapid-transformational-therapist  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sallygarozzomindmentor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sallygarozzo/ Send me a WhatsApp: https://wa.me/message/FTARBMO7CRLEL1 Send me a direct message Support the show

    209 The Discipline of Not Intervening

    There’s a kind of care that looks loving on the surface,  yet somehow leaves both the receiver and giver more tense than before.   This episode delves into this often unexplored territory.  It’s called ‘the discipline of not intervening’.  Of course I'm not talking about neglectfulness, but I am talking about healthy restraint.  And what becomes possible when silence and space are allowed to make room for the natural order of things to emerge.  If you’ve ever noticed yourself holding everything together,  or sensed the quiet cost of always stepping in,  this episode may be for you.  ******************************************** Join the waitlist for BECOMING 🔗 Join the waitlist: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/becoming ********************************************* 📲 Connect with Sally: Email: info@sallygarozzo.com  [On-Demand Masterclass] How To Heal The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity [£17]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtrauma  [Online Practitioners Diploma - Self Paced] Menopause Wellbeing Practitioner [£127]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/meno [One to One] Bespoke Transformational Hypnotherapy & Coaching: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/rapid-transformational-therapist  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sallygarozzomindmentor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sallygarozzo/ Send me a WhatsApp: https://wa.me/message/FTARBMO7CRLEL1 Send me a direct message Support the show

    208 Pausing without a Plan

    We talk a lot about slowing down and how it's really good for us, but we talk much less about what it means to stay.  Like really stay.... without doing it for productivity gains.   This episode explores holding space for yourself,  not as a technique, but as a way of inhabiting yourself, experiencing yourself without the need to learn from it yet (and why that's really good for your HPA axis!) Join me for this short but profound episode.  ****************** ‘Becoming’ is the new membership I’ve created for this phase Becoming is a space for women in this in-between phase where old identities no longer fit, and new ones haven’t fully arrived yet.

    207 Attunement: The Thing You Didn't Know You Needed

    If you’re tired in a way rest doesn’t touch… If you’ve done the work but still feel slightly on edge… If being “strong” or “capable” no longer feels like something you want to keep doing… This episode is for you. This is a quiet, spacious fireside conversation about something that sits underneath anxiety, exhaustion, relationship strain, and the sense of feeling subtly disconnected from yourself, especially in midlife and menopause. This is about attunement and what happens in the body when it’s missing. If you want to feel: less braced against lifemore settled inside yourselfunderstood without having to explaincalmer without being told to “relax”a sense of warmth, steadiness, and inner permission…this episode is an invitation to listen. ****************** ‘Becoming’ is the new membership I’ve created for this phase Becoming is a space for women in this in-between phase where old identities no longer fit, and new ones haven’t fully arrived yet.

    206 The Great Brain Rewiring of Menopause

    What if menopause isn’t a breakdown, but a house renovation you’re living inside? In this episode, I reframe menopause in a way I wish someone had offered me. Not as decline. Not as loss. Not as something to “push through.” But as a neurological remodel happening in real time, while I’m still expected to function, work, parent, decide what cheese to buy, and hold everything together. No wonder it feels chaotic. What I share in this episode: Why menopause is not just hormonal, but deeply neurologicalHow fluctuating estrogen affects mood, memory, focus, and emotional regulationWhy brain fog, emotional sensitivity, and slower thinking are not failures, but signs of reorganizationWhat’s really happening when my tolerance for noise, pressure, people-pleasing, and nonsense disappearsHow the amygdala shifts and threat sensitivity gradually dials downWhy decisions feel slower, more embodied, and less driven by urgencyHow identity itself begins to shift during menopause, not collapseThe grief, the disorientation, and the unexpected clarity that emerges on the other sideWhy post-menopause often brings deeper contentment, discernment, and grounded leadershipIf you’re like me and feeling: Less sharp but more sensitiveSlower but more discerningLess tolerant of bullshitLess available for emotional labourMore interested in depth than surface-level busynessNothing has gone wrong. Something is reorganizing with intent.

    205 Why I’m Speaking Differently about Menopause & Mindset Now

    What if menopause isn’t something to manage… What if it’s something to participate in? In this deeply reflective solo episode, I return after time away with a radical reframe of what “mindset” actually means in menopause, and why the phrase has become so triggering, misunderstood, and frankly, unhelpful. Fresh from turning 50 and beginning my Clinical Hypnotherapy diploma, I share what it’s like to be in the middle of a personal and professional unlearning. Long-held beliefs are being questioned. Identities are softening. Certainty is giving way to curiosity. This isn’t a how-to episode. It’s a fireside conversation for women who feel something deeper is happening beneath the surface. In this episode, I explore: 🧠 Why “just change your mindset” can feel dismissive and where that conversation breaks down 🔍 What mindset actually means (and why it’s not positive thinking) 🫀 How perception, nervous system safety, and hormones are in constant dialogue 🌡️ Why you can’t think your way into more estrogen — but can influence how symptoms land in the body 🔥 The biology behind hot flushes, stress, adrenaline, and the feedback loops that intensify symptoms 🌀 What hypnotherapy really is (and no, it’s not stage hypnosis or mind control) 🪞 Why menopause is a transition of identity, not just hormones 🧳 How stress can exist even when life looks “fine” on paper 🧩 Why perfectionism is often a trauma response — and why menopause dismantles it 🌱 Menopause as compost: decay and renewal happening at the same time 🤝 Why this stage of life asks for collaboration, not control This episode is for you if: 😮‍💨 You’re tired of oversimplified menopause advice 😬 You bristle at mindset talk but still feel drawn to something deeper 🐢 You sense menopause is asking you to slow down, not push harder 🤍 You want compassion, nuance, and honesty — not fixes 🧬 You’re curious about the mind–body relationship without bypassing biology A quiet announcement I introduce Becoming, a new membership space I’m creating, not to fix or optimize women in menopause, but to offer somewhere to be while identity, nervous system, and meaning are reorganizing. This is not a course. This is not a program. It’s a space for women who feel the shift and don’t want to rush through it. The waitlist is now open. No urgency. No pressure. Just an invitation. 👉 Join the Becoming waitlist: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/becoming If this episode felt like relief rather than effort… if something in your body quietly said yes… trust that. Menopause isn’t a problem to solve. It’s a process you’re allowed to be in. You’re not broken. You’re becoming. ************************************************************************************* 📲 Connect with Sally: Email: info@sallygarozzo.com  [On-Demand Masterclass] How To Heal The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity [£17]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtrauma  [Online Practitioners Diploma - Self Paced] Menopause Wellbeing Practitioner [£127]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/meno [One to One] Bespoke Transformational Hypnotherapy & Coaching: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/rapid-tran Send me a direct message Support the show
