“Midlife, Hormones, and the Invitation to Live Well”
Are you a woman in your 40s or 50s feeling like your body, mind, and emotions are shifting—and you’re not sure what’s happening? You’re not alone.
In this episode of Life of Joy & Purpose, therapist and women’s coach Vicki Gardiner, LPC, unpacks the real challenges of midlife—those hormone changes that sneak in during your late 30s, 40s, and 50s, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with them.
Here’s what you’ll discover in this episode:
- What perimenopause and menopause really look like—and the first signs to watch for
- How hormone changes affect your sleep, energy, emotions, and even your relationships
- Simple, doable lifestyle shifts to feel better in your body right now (sleep, food, movement, mindset)
- Encouragement to see midlife not as an ending, but as the beginning of a new chapter filled with purpose
If you’ve ever thought: “I don’t feel like myself anymore” or “Is this normal?” — this conversation will give you hope, clarity, and next steps.
✨ Listen in, friend. You’re not broken—you’re becoming.
