Midlife Women: You are Not Alone!
2022 BOOK EXCELLENCE AWARD WINNER in Women's Health: I invite you to join me on your aging journey. I strive to act as the dean to help you see it as a Varsity menopause experience. The best is yet to come. I have been exactly where you are right now. Perimenopause and menopause are not something that you would have added to your “to-do” list when you had your first period. After all, a young girl most likely doesn’t have those words in her vocabulary. But you and certainly I do several decades later … and I wished I hadn’t had to learn them the hard way. Dammit ... It IS Menopause! is me talking to you and sharing with you. And yes, pulling out my hair and crying with you. I’ve been there … wish I hadn’t … and yet I survived.

Disappointing Others vs. Self-Abandonment
I am not willing to abandon myself. Not. Even. One. More. Time. Thank you, Glennon Doyle.
What's "Shiny" in Your Day Today?
Making the decision to “live no matter what” requires faith and willingness. I have faith that whatever uncomfortable feelings I am experiencing now will pass, even when there is nothing shiny in my future. I demonstrate my faith by becoming willing to make and keep daily self-loving contracts physically, intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually. The tone of each day is contingent upon my faith and willingness.

In Search Of Fiddleheads Unfurling
Call to Action: What beliefs and behaviors are not serving you anymore? Be brave enough to look within. It may be unfamiliar and uncomfortable. You deserve to have your breath taken away.
Grieving and Gratitude
This is my first father's day since my Dad died. I am holding a space for my sadness and everyone's sadness around their father, whatever that looks like. You are not alone.
Right-Sizing Exercise
Just as it is vital to right-size my attitude and self-talk, so too is it vital to right-size my attitude about exercise. I exercise for disease prevention and for cardiovascular strength. I exercise to help me sleep, to lift depression, and to combat sarcopenia. The following are NOT reasons I exercise (or excessively exercise): • To eat bigger portions and avoid uncomfortable feelings • To counter a recent episode of binge-eating • To apologize for my body’s appearance
Crying + Unrealistic Expectations
Just when I think I "have menopause down" hahahahahaha! I decide to go off HRT after ten years and begin to experience hot flashes all over again at the age of 61. Just then I am reminded by a Dr. Jen Gunter podcast that hot flashes are an indication that I am strong beyond belief!
If I'm Kind to All People...
If I'm kind to all people, could I still be racist? This excerpt (#331) was written in June 2020 and addresses willingness to look at my white privilege with my eyes open...admittedly for the first time. The beginning of discovering what it means to be an ally; an anti-racist and take action. I have a long way to go, but I am willing to unlearn and relearn. I'm still listening and open to what that looks like. To all midlife women...I'd love your company.
Expletives & F-Bombs v. Compassion
Every day I need to check my judgment. Every day I need to remember compassion. Every day I need to put myself in your shoes. Every day I need to check my stress level. What can I do to support my nervous system?
And I Thought I was Fairly Healthy...
Sobering Scientific Fact: As we age, the master reproductive hormones (such as estrogen and progesterone) produced in the brain DECLINE, which causes many changes to occur in our cells and tissues. These changes make us more vulnerable to inflammation and therefore, disease. Remember, you are not alone... Good News!: There are MANY self-care actions you can take to ease your transition! The best is yet to come!
