If you’ve ever felt that ache of invisible loneliness, this episode is for you.

We unpack why loneliness can sneak into midlife—especially as hormones shift—and name the quiet grief many women feel but rarely talk about.

This conversation is about reminding your nervous system that you’re not doing life alone, and that relationships, community, and meaningful time with friends can make all the difference.

Plus, I’ll tell you all about my 7-day jumpstart designed to help you feel grounded, connected, and more like yourself again.

QUOTES

“Loneliness can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, dementia, anxiety, depression, and yes, more severe perimenopausal symptoms.”

“It’s disconnection layered on top of hormonal vulnerability. That’s why this time really is a zone of vulnerability.”
