Why Am I Yelling? Musings from a middle-aged, menopausal mom
Welcome to Why Am I Yelling?—the podcast for every middle-aged, menopausal mom (or anyone who loves one) trying to navigate the chaos of midlife without completely losing it. Hosted by Krista Rizzo, a mom, transformational coach, and professional yeller (mostly at inanimate objects), this show is all about the hilarity, frustration, and unexpected joys of this stage of life.
From hot flashes to parenting teens, marriage to career reinvention, and the absurd cost of everything, nothing is off-limits. Each episode features real talk, relatable stories, expert guests, and the segments you’ll love:
🔥 "Are You KIDDING Me?" – A listener-submitted or personal rant about life’s latest ridiculousness.
💡 "Here’s the Thing…" – Krista’s unfiltered response, because sometimes you just need to tell it like it is.
So, if you're feeling overwhelmed, underappreciated, or just a little sweaty for no reason, you’re in the right place. Let’s laugh, vent, and figure this out together.
