Simple Science Backed Methods to Manage Anxiety During Menopause

There were days when you'd wake up feeling anxious for no reason, wondering what's wrong with you. Turns out, it's menopause. During this life stage, anxiety creeps in as hormonal fluctuations stress your nervous system. But here's the good news: you can manage it. The key is reducing stress through science based practices like meditation. When you meditate, your brain takes complete control over your body, actively lowering cortisol and calming your nervous system. It's not woo-woo, it's neuroscience. By incorporating meditation into your daily routine along with focusing on the present moment and letting go of what you can't control, you can significantly reduce anxiety and take back your power during menopause.     The Menopause Queen, Lisa R. Triggs, is a certified menopause coach, menopause mindset expert, motivational speaker and Amazon bestselling author of The Menopause Mindshift: How I Unleashed My Inner Queen, And You Can Too! She has been navigating menopause for 20 years.   During that time, she experienced insomnia, hot flashes, brain fog, memory loss, fatigue, weight gain, and the list goes on. Until one day, she had enough. Lisa made a radical decision to stop searching outside herself for healing and instead go within.     Here, you’ll find genuine support, encouragement, and powerful insights focused on the connection between self-love and menopause. Expect personal stories, inspiring guests, and real, honest conversations about what menopause is really like. 🔔 Subscribe now and tune in for the Self-Love Podcast!   #menopausesupport #mindsetmatters #womenshealth #healthandwellness #mentalhealthadvocate

Breaking Through the Messy Middle; Executive Leadership for Women at Midlife

What if the reason you're stuck in your career isn't about your performance, but about a gap in the leadership training women are given? In this episode, I sit down with Lori Lalonde, founder of Her Executive Ascent Inc., who spent three decades in tech before identifying a critical problem: women were being overloaded with operational work while missing the strategic skills needed to advance. Lori shares how she's helping women break through the messy middle of management and step into their power as executive leaders, plus she opens up about navigating perimenopause while climbing the corporate ladder and why it matters that we address both at the same time.   Connect with Lori: https://linkedin.com/in/lorilalonde, https://instagram.com/@her_executive_ascent https://instagram.com/@leadershiprecalibrated [https://instagram.com/@leadershiprecalibrated]   🎙️ Welcome to your menopause rewrite!
