In this candid end-of-year episode of Radiant Revolution, Kim Schaper speaks to a truth so many women quietly carry: your husband will never fully understand what you’re going through — and you don’t need his permission to take your health seriously.

As women move through perimenopause and midlife hormonal shifts, partners often see the behaviors but miss the biology underneath. Kim breaks down why this disconnect exists, why logic-based “fix it” thinking falls short, and how waiting for validation or approval can keep women stuck in exhaustion, frustration, and self-doubt.

This episode is an empowering reminder that your symptoms are real, your experience is valid, and you are allowed to make decisions for your body, confidently, unapologetically, and without needing to be fully understood first.
