Perimenopause, Pandemic, and Personal Resilience: A Conversation with Maria Doyle

Kylie Patchett Season 2 Episode 17

What if the signs of perimenopause were staring you right in the face and you didn't even know it?

Get ready to unpack the unfamiliar terrain of perimenopause with our guest, Maria Doyle, as she shares her journey of awakening to her own symptoms, the challenges she faced due to the global pandemic, and the positive changes she made in her life. Maria's story is not just an enlightening look at perimenopause but also a testament to resilience, authenticity and self-care.

Maria's life, split between the sun-soaked beaches of Perth and the snowy landscapes of Norway, took an unexpected turn when the pandemic hit. The stressful experience of moving between countries, handling bureaucracy from afar, and the emotional strain of family separation added layers of complexity to her life. Alongside these challenges, she began to experience the overlap what she now knows was perimenopause.

In the latter part of our conversation, Maria opens up about her journey towards embracing authenticity, liberation and balance in her work life. We delve into her decision to take a sabbatical, challenging the status quo, and redefining the role of a middle-aged woman. 

Get ready to be inspired by a story that is a powerful reminder of the importance of self-care and resilience in the face of adversity.
