Episode 46 - Menopause and Mother's Day

Mother’s Day hits different in midlife — and that’s not a bad thing. In this heartfelt and humorous episode, I reflect on how Mother’s Day has evolved now that my daughters are grown, I’m navigating menopause, and life looks nothing like it did when I was juggling diaper bags, walkers, and brunch reservations all at once.

From the chaos of early motherhood to the quiet confidence that comes with age (and lower estrogen levels — shoutout to my naturopath!), I’m sharing personal stories, lessons learned, and why it’s time we give ourselves full permission to celebrate Mother’s Day — and every day — exactly how we want to.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for wanting alone time, rolled your eyes at brunch stress, or just needed a reminder that midlife motherhood is powerful in its own way — this one’s for you.

In this episode, I share:
✨ The evolution of Mother’s Day from young kids to grown daughters
✨ Why menopause gives you the gift of “no more polite energy”
✨ How to reclaim Mother’s Day (and birthdays!) on your own terms
✨ The power of saying Let them — and letting go
✨ Why prioritizing your happiness and health is the ultimate gift

Pour a mimosa, kick your feet up, and celebrate YOU today. You deserve it.
