#65: Why Menopause Isn’t Making You Crazy


Listen Later

Hot flashes aren’t the problem—gaslighting is.

Hilary takes aim at the menopause conversation and asks the question no one else is asking: What if this isn’t your downfall, but your awakening?

In this episode, she breaks down the cultural scripts, conditioning, and quiet misogyny wrapped in every “crazy menopausal woman” meme, and replaces it with truth, clarity, and power.

This is not a hormonal crisis. This is your moment.

 

Episode Highlights:

  • Why blaming hormones keeps women stuck
  • The myth of the “crazy menopausal woman”
  • What really causes women to question their marriage at midlife
  • Why losing your cool isn’t the issue—losing yourself is
  • The gift of finally putting yourself first (and meaning it)
  •
