The Menopause Mindset

The DUTCH test has become one of the most talked-about hormone assessments in the menopause space. Some women describe it as illuminating and empowering. Some medical professionals describe it as unnecessary, over-interpreted, or a waste of money.So why the disagreement?In this episode, I step back from the noise and explore what's actually being argued. What assumptions sit underneath functional hormone testing? What assumptions sit underneath conventional medicine? And why does this debate feel so emotionally charged?Rather than taking sides, we look at the psychological and structural differences between these two paradigms — and what happens when menopausal women find themselves caught in the middle.If you've ever felt validated by testing… dismissed by medicine… or confused by the intensity of the conversation online, this episode is for you.Join the waitlist for BECOMING

We live in a culture that rewards certainty.  In this episode, I reflect on the energy surrounding recent public controversies and ask a different question: what if moral outrage is sometimes a nervous system strategy rather than moral clarity?  Drawing on anxiety physiology, childhood conditioning, and midlife change, I explore how certainty can feel like safety, and why building capacity for uncertainty might be the real work as we step into midlife.  Join the waitlist for BECOMING

There's a kind of care that looks loving on the surface,  yet somehow leaves both the receiver and giver more tense than before.   This episode delves into this often unexplored territory.  It's called ‘the discipline of not intervening'.  Of course I'm not talking about neglectfulness, but I am talking about healthy restraint.  And what becomes possible when silence and space are allowed to make room for the natural order of things to emerge.  If you've ever noticed yourself holding everything together,  or sensed the quiet cost of always stepping in,  this episode may be for you. ********************************************Join the waitlist for BECOMING

We talk a lot about slowing down and how it's really good for us, but we talk much less about what it means to stay.  Like really stay.... without doing it for productivity gains.  This episode explores holding space for yourself,  not as a technique, but as a way of inhabiting yourself, experiencing yourself without the need to learn from it yet (and why that's really good for your HPA axis!)Join me for this short but profound episode. ******************‘Becoming' is the new membership I've created for this phaseBecoming is a space for women in this in-between phase where old identities no longer fit, and new ones haven't fully arrived yet.The waitlist is now open.

If you're tired in a way rest doesn't touch…If you've done the work but still feel slightly on edge…If being “strong” or “capable” no longer feels like something you want to keep doing…This episode is for you.This is a quiet, spacious fireside conversation about something that sits underneath anxiety, exhaustion, relationship strain, and the sense of feeling subtly disconnected from yourself, especially in midlife and menopause.This is about attunement and what happens in the body when it's missing.If you want to feel:less braced against lifemore settled inside yourselfunderstood without having to explaincalmer without being told to “relax”a sense of warmth, steadiness, and inner permission…this episode is an invitation to listen.******************‘Becoming' is the new membership I've created for this phaseBecoming is a space for women in this in-between phase where old identities no longer fit, and new ones haven't fully arrived yet.The waitlist is now open.

What if menopause isn't a breakdown, but a house renovation you're living inside?In this episode, I reframe menopause in a way I wish someone had offered me. Not as decline. Not as loss. Not as something to “push through.”But as a neurological remodel happening in real time, while I'm still expected to function, work, parent, decide what cheese to buy, and hold everything together.No wonder it feels chaotic.What I share in this episode:Why menopause is not just hormonal, but deeply neurologicalHow fluctuating estrogen affects mood, memory, focus, and emotional regulationWhy brain fog, emotional sensitivity, and slower thinking are not failures, but signs of reorganizationWhat's really happening when my tolerance for noise, pressure, people-pleasing, and nonsense disappearsHow the amygdala shifts and threat sensitivity gradually dials downWhy decisions feel slower, more embodied, and less driven by urgencyHow identity itself begins to shift during menopause, not collapseThe grief, the disorientation, and the unexpected clarity that emerges on the other sideWhy post-menopause often brings deeper contentment, discernment, and grounded leadershipIf you're like me and feeling:Less sharp but more sensitiveSlower but more discerningLess tolerant of bullshitLess available for emotional labourMore interested in depth than surface-level busynessNothing has gone wrong.Something is reorganizing with intent.Join me!******************‘Becoming' is the new membership I've created for this phaseBecoming is a space for women in this in-between phase where old identities no longer fit, and new ones haven't fully arrived yet.The waitlist is now open.

What if menopause isn't something to manage…What if it's something to participate in?In this deeply reflective solo episode, I return after time away with a radical reframe of what “mindset” actually means in menopause, and why the phrase has become so triggering, misunderstood, and frankly, unhelpful.Fresh from turning 50 and beginning my Clinical Hypnotherapy diploma, I share what it's like to be in the middle of a personal and professional unlearning. Long-held beliefs are being questioned. Identities are softening. Certainty is giving way to curiosity.This isn't a how-to episode.It's a fireside conversation for women who feel something deeper is happening beneath the surface.In this episode, I explore:

This conversation is not about ‘surviving' menopause.It's about claiming power, pleasure, and potency on the other side of it.Sally sits down with Carla Wainwright, holistic wellness coach, sexual awakening facilitator, and self-described midlife alchemist, for a deeply grounding, myth-shattering conversation about what really happens when women cross the threshold of midlife.With a background in biology, homeopathy, and over 30 years of embodiment work, Carla bridges science and the sacred in a way that feels both practical and deeply liberating. This isn't woo for the sake of woo, and it's not cold science either. It's the place where metabolism, trauma, hormones, pleasure, and power actually meet.In this episode, we talk about why menopause is not a decline but a rite of passage. Why so many women feel unprepared for it, and why the years after perimenopause can become the most creative, sexually alive, and authentic chapter of a woman's life…if she's supported properly.Carla shares how her own journey — from wildlife biologist working with endangered species to guiding women through sexual healing and midlife transformation — came full circle when she entered perimenopause herself. What emerged was a model she calls sacred metabolism: tending not just to blood sugar and hormones, but to the nervous system, the inner child, and the feminine life force itself.We explore why unstable blood sugar can keep women stuck in fight-or-flight, amplify trauma, worsen menopausal symptoms, and quietly erode desire. Why pleasure isn't indulgent. And why many women lose touch with intimacy, not because something is wrong with them, but because no one ever taught them how to stay connected to their bodies as they change.This episode also dives into sex in midlife — honestly, tenderly, and without shame. We talk about why desire changes, why stress is the ultimate libido killer, and why reconnection always starts with the relationship you have with yourself. No pressure to perform. No swinging from chandeliers. Just curiosity, safety, and choice.You'll also hear:Why menopause can make women less people-pleasing and more clear about what they wantHow sexual energy shifts when menstruation ends — and why some traditions call this phase “the second spring.”The link between trauma resurfacing and perimenopauseWhy women initiate most divorces between 45–55How sacred feminine practices reconnect women to intuition, creativity, and embodied wisdomThe myths about menopause that quietly serve patriarchySimple daily practices that build momentum when you feel stuck in survival modeThis is a conversation about remembering who you are — in your body, in your desire, and in your power — at a stage of life that has been deeply misunderstood

Your Cycle Isn't the Problem — The Way We've Been Taught to Live IsWhat if the days you feel flat, emotional, tired, or “off” aren't something to fix… but something to listen to?In this episode, Sally is joined by Claire Baker — menstrual cycle educator, author, and founder of Cycle Coach School — for a grounded, honest conversation about menstrual cycle awareness, agency, and the long-term impact of ignoring the body's rhythms.We're not asking you to ‘love your period', we're just saying it might be nice to stop fighting with your body.

As we know, menopause is not a downfall, it's a metamorphosis, and Petra Coveney—former BBC journalist, founder of Menopause Yoga, bestselling author, and unapologetic menopause rebel—joined Sally to tear down every stale narrative about “the change.”And trust us… this conversation goes there.Petra went through perimenopause early, alone, confused, and dismissed by doctors who had nothing to offer her except a pat on the head and a “good luck.”The frustration, shame and rage… she tapped into all of it. And what came out of that fire?Menopause Yoga—the world's first specialist yoga program built to support the physical, emotional, and psychological rollercoaster of perimenopause through second spring.In this episode, Petra breaks down:

In this episode, Sally sits down with Dr. Lara Briden, naturopathic doctor and bestselling author of Period Repair Manual, Hormone Repair Manual, and Metabolism Repair for Women. She's been called the period revolutionary—and after this conversation, you'll understand exactly why.We talk about the massive paradox in women's health:Society suddenly worships estrogen and progesterone when women hit their mid-40s……yet spent the last 60 years casually switching those same hormones off in teenage girls.Yep. We're going there.What We Get IntoWhy regular ovulation is not just “nice to have” — it's literally how young women make hormonesHow we got stuck in a 60-year loop of shutting down women's ovarian function (hint: the pill's “regulate your period” pitch started as a cover story)The weird disconnect between medical guidelines that say periods are a vital sign… and the normalization of medicating them awayWhat a healthy period actually looks like (spoiler: it shouldn't hurt and it shouldn't require you to white-knuckle your way through PMS)Why so many modern symptoms aren't “women being women”—they're the result of environment, lifestyle, and a system that never prioritized female physiologyAnd the big one: Did menopause evolve? Or is it some biological glitch because women are living longer?The Mic-Drop MomentsLara breaks down why menopause absolutely evolved on purpose—and why humans are more like killer whales than we thinkThe “grandmother effect” and why older women have always been essential for the survival of the tribeThe wild fact that among the Hadza, and other traditional-living communities, menopause brings zero symptomsThe reality that our cycles are meant to be signals, not punishmentsIf You've Ever Thought…“I guess this is just how my period is.”“This is normal for my age.”“Maybe my hormones just hate me.”…this episode might flip your worldview upside down (in a good way).About Dr. Lara BridenLara practices in Christchurch, New Zealand, helping women navigate PCOS, PMS, endometriosis, perimenopause, and other hormone-health challenges. Her work bridges biology, history, anthropology, and real-world clinical wisdom.

Everything went wrong before this interview even started: lagging audio, frozen screens, “Can you hear me?” chaos… which, honestly, became the perfect metaphor for today's topic: women being told to accept dysfunction as normal.And fittingly, this conversation marks a huge milestone — our 200th episode! Two hundred episodes of unlearning, reframing, and giving women permission to trust their bodies. And today's guest delivers exactly that kind of truth.Because once Nicole Jardim (women's health coach + author of Fix Your Period) finally got connected, she dropped a truth bomb most women never hear:

Perimenopause can feel like a 10–15 year hormonal remix, but why is it so much harder for women in 2025?. Dr. Jessica Drummond busts myths, challenges outdated narratives, and explains the overlaps nobody talks about: long COVID, autoimmune flare-ups, endometriosis, stress overload, digital overwhelm, and why so many women enter midlife already running on fumes.

Forget everything you think you know about periods. This conversation blows the lid off the cultural conditioning, shame, and linear thinking we've been fed, and replaces it with a radical new paradigm: menstruality as a source of power, creativity, leadership, and spiritual awakening.In this episode, Sally sits down with Alexandra Pope & Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, the visionary co-founders of Red School and co-authors of Wild Power and Wise Power. With over 60 years of combined experience, they're not just talking about women's health; they're pioneering a whole new language and leadership model rooted in the menstrual cycle.

Are You Living on Autopilot or Riding the Genius Wheel?What if your life wasn't random chaos… but a seven-year cycle that secretly shapes your growth, transitions, and genius?In this conversation, Sally sits down with Lulu Minns, author, coach, and creator of The Genius Wheel, to smash the myth that “genius” is reserved for Einstein-types. Instead, Lulu unveils a radically different framework that reclaims intuition, feminine power, and the cycles we've been taught to ignore.We dive into:Why midlife isn't a crisis, it's a pivot point into a new genius phase.The three kinds of genius (and why you've probably dismissed your own).How to spot when you're in your personal winter phase, and why it's not failure, but power.The invisible skills patriarchy ignores: intuition, charisma, deep listening, and how they're actually genius at work.Lulu's journey from burned-out criminal lawyer to cycle-led coach and author.Forget “hustle harder.” Forget “stay in your lane.”This episode invites you to trust your body, follow your cycles, and redefine genius on your own terms.

Forget everything you thought you knew about nutrition. This episode gets wildly colorful—literally.Dr. Deanna Minich joins Sally to decode how COLOR—yes, actual colors—can shift your health, your hormones, and even your mood. From purple carrots to chlorophyll, this convo goes deep on how to nourish your body and your energy.We're talking:✨ Yellow for joy + gut vibes
