Rage Part 3 - Losing Grip, Finding Self

Perimenopause and menopause can leave us feeling unmoored—like life is slipping through our hands. Identities shift, energy wavers, and even familiar roles feel foreign. And then there’s rage.

Rage, when met with awareness, can become a doorway back to the self we’ve silenced or set aside. In this episode, we explore how to loosen the grip of chaos, reclaim inner wisdom, and see this chapter not as loss but as powerful initiation. If you’ve felt untethered in this transition, this conversation is a reminder: your path back to wholeness begins within.
