Tranquility du Jour

A Good Vintage


Listen Later

In this week’s edition of Tranquility du Jour, I chat with Sacha Cohen on:

  • Reclaiming Passion and Prioritizing Joy Sacha shares her journey back to freelance writing after running a strategic communications company for over a decade. She highlights how midlife has shifted her focus from ambition to joy, choosing projects and pursuits that truly fulfill her.

  • Navigating Perimenopause with Awareness and Adaptation Experiencing perimenopause since 2018, Sacha emphasizes the importance of education, community, and self-care. She discusses dietary changes, strength training, and meditation as key strategies for managing this phase with resilience.

  • A Love for France and a Future Abroad Sacha and her husband are slowly transitioning toward spending extended time in France, with hopes of making it a more permanent home. She shares insights into the joys and challenges of planning an international move, from navigating bureaucracy to embracing the adventure.

  • Finding Beauty in the Everyday From baking Bundt cakes and birdwatching to curating a cozy home environment, Sacha embraces the art de vivre. She encourages small pleasures—flowers, music, and quiet moments—as a way to cultivate tranquility amid life’s uncertainties.
