Ep 131 Menopause Amnesia: When You Forget How Bad It Used to Be

Click here to send us a quick message!! We want to hear from YOU! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2197218/fan_mail/new] Sometimes you don’t realize how much better you feel until something reminds you how bad you used to feel. In this episode, we discuss what happened when Ana got an unexpected reminder and found herself revisiting symptoms she hadn’t experienced in years. It sparked a bigger conversation about what we call menopause amnesia—the tendency to forget just how difficult things once felt after feeling better for long enough. We also share some of the things we’ve discovered that have made a meaningful difference in this stage of life and why so many women accept symptoms as “normal aging” when they may not have to. 💜 In This Episode: * What is menopause amnesia? * Ana’s unexpected reality check after surgery * Hot flashes, sleep issues, night sweats, and mood swings returning * The habits and tools that have made a difference for us in midlife * Why women normalize feeling terrible for far too long * What have you accepted as “normal aging” that maybe doesn’t have to be? ✨ Because sometimes the biggest reminder of progress is realizing how far you’ve come.  Comments or suggestions for topics?  Chat@girlcanyoutalk.com [Chat@girlcanyoutalk.com]   Follow us on Instagram: GIRLCANYOUTALK [https://www.instagram.com/girlcanyoutalk/] Links to our favorite things Beam Minerals : BeamMineralsLink [https://www.beamminerals.com/GirlTalk] use discount code GIRLTALK and get 20% off Paleovalley: to shop the entire store us this link for 15% off anything else you desire from Paleo Valley with this link PaleoValley15 [https://www.paleovalley.com/?pc=pvpartners&oid=26&affid=1360]  Beef sticks: get 50% off with our link here [https://paleovalley.com/offers/grass-fed-beef-sticks-50-off-promo?oid=40&affid=1360]

Ep. 130 From Invisible to Invincible: The Midlife Shift Nobody Talks About

Click here to send us a quick message!! We want to hear from YOU! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2197218/fan_mail/new] What if the feeling of becoming invisible isn’t really about visibility at all? In this episode, we explore why so many women carry that fear into midlife and whether “invisible” is actually a sign that we’re navigating something much deeper: identity shifts, changing roles, evolving purpose, and the question of what’s next. 💜 In This Episode: * Why do so many women struggle with feeling invisible in midlife? * How does this relate to the empty nest, career transitions, and the “now what?” phase of life? * What if youth isn’t where our value lies? * Why is the retirement analogy every mom will relate to?  * What if the future is written in pencil, not pen? ✨ Because getting older doesn’t mean becoming invisible. It might just be the beginning of your next chapter.  Comments or suggestions for topics?  Chat@girlcanyoutalk.com [Chat@girlcanyoutalk.com]   Follow us on Instagram: GIRLCANYOUTALK [https://www.instagram.com/girlcanyoutalk/] Links to our favorite things Beam Minerals : BeamMineralsLink [https://www.beamminerals.com/GirlTalk] use discount code GIRLTALK and get 20% off Paleovalley: to shop the entire store us this link for 15% off anything else you desire from Paleo Valley with this link PaleoValley15 [https://www.paleovalley.com/?pc=pvpartners&oid=26&affid=1360]  Beef sticks: get 50% off with our link here [https://paleovalley.com/offers/grass-fed-beef-sticks-50-off-promo?oid=40&affid=1360]

Click here to send us a quick message!! We want to hear from YOU! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2197218/fan_mail/new] What if some of the things we've accepted as "normal aging" aren't actually aging at all? The aches. The exhaustion. The stress. The feeling that your body is somehow working against you. Today we're talking about reverse aging... but not in the way you think. Christy sits down with yogi, Qigong instructor, and practitioner of the energy arts, Parisa Shelton, for a conversation that challenges many of the beliefs we've been taught about aging. Because reverse aging isn't just about looking younger. It's about identifying and reversing the patterns that may be draining your energy, wellbeing, and quality of life. 💜 In This Episode: * What "reverse aging" really means * Why decline and aging are not the same thing * How your beliefs, stress, and emotional health may be influencing your wellbeing * The five pillars of longevity: physical, mental, emotional, financial, and vocational health * Why community and relationships play a vital role in aging well * Practical tools to create more vitality, balance, and purpose as you age Because the goal isn't to reverse your age. It's to reverse the patterns that are draining your life force.
