This episode is a compassionate call to notice the red flags our bodies raise, recognize our limitations, and honor our needs.Many women in perimenopause and menopause experience brain fog and memory loss, but this is seldom talked about openly. Drawing from my own recent experiences, and with support from Dr. Gabor Maté's book When the Body Says No, we explore the ways our bodies communicate distress, often through symptoms we might overlook—like memory lapses, mental fatigue, or even physical illness.

Key Topics:

• The impact of chronic stress on mental faculties and overall wellbeing.
• How small and significant stresses accumulate, often unnoticed, shaping who we become.
• Practical insights on tuning in to bodily signals and making space for rest and recalibration.
• Affirmations that remind us of our worth beyond productivity or societal expectations.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the fast pace of life, battling stress, or noticing changes in your mental clarity, this episode offers permission to pause, breathe, and reconnect with what truly matters. We close with a powerful affirmation to guide you on this journey: "I am valued, accepted, and loved as I am. It is safe to be me."
