Do you know what season of your menopause journey you're currently in? I know it can feel like an eternal hot summer on some days, and like a cold winter where you want to turn inward and hibernate on others. My guest today, Kate Codrington, has a beautiful way of mapping out your journey according to each season of the year with nourishing self care practices, reflections and journaling prompts so you can craft your own experience according to your unique needs. This week, episode 20 of Pleasure in the Pause is about your second spring and embracing the seasons of menopause!
In this episode of Pleasure in the Pause, Kate Codrington shares the importance of understanding menstrual cycles for leadership, creativity, and power and actionable steps you can take right now to navigate the seasons of perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Highlights from our discussion include:
- Menopause and perimenopause as a feminist issue.
- The importance of inner reflection during perimenopause and menopause to address underlying emotional issues.
- The "second spring" of post-menopause, characterized by freedom from caring about others' opinions and a renewed sense of self-care and reinvention.
- Embracing the "not knowing" phase of growth.
Kate’s new book, The Perimenopause Journal comes out September 10th! You can pre-order now through Amazon or your local independent bookseller!
