Navigating My Menopause Journey ✨
Menopause was something I never truly thought about — until it hit me out of nowhere. Suddenly, I was dealing with night sweats, waking up feeling completely exhausted, and struggling with being grumpy and impatient. To top it off, the weight gain around my midsection made everything feel even more frustrating. At times, it felt like a stranger was living in my body, one I didn’t recognize or particularly like.

But here’s the truth: menopause isn’t the end of the road, it’s just a transition. While it’s not always easy, I’m learning to accept it with self-care, patience, and small, positive changes. Menopause is a natural part of life, and we don’t have to face it in silence. Let’s talk about it openly, support each other, and move through this chapter with strength and resilience.

💛 I’m here, walking this path with you, every step of the way.

🍴 Nourishment Meets Fresh Creativity 🥗

One of my favourite ways to nourish my body is by cooking and experimenting with fresh, whole foods. Right now, I love a combination of fresh asparagus, sliced almonds, and lemon-infused olive oil paired with salmon or chicken. A garden salad with a homemade seed salad topper completes the meal beautifully—especially when the vegetables are coming straight from my garden!

For me, food isn’t just fuel—it’s a way to connect with health, creativity, and the joy of cooking. Embracing these whole, real ingredients has made all the difference.

What’s your go-to quick and healthy meal? Let’s swap ideas! 💛

🌟 Embracing a New Chapter 🌟

With my youngest moving to Sydney this year, I’ve found myself stepping into a new phase of life. It’s bittersweet—watching them spread their wings while adjusting to the quiet of an empty nest. This change gave me the time and space to expand on the inner work I’ve been doing and dig even deeper into understanding myself and my path.

I leaned into a mindset of growth and possibility, building a morning routine of silent walks, yoga, and meditation. These practices not only grounded me but also helped me uncover new layers of resilience, clarity, and purpose. The quiet mornings mirrored the deeper work I was doing—embracing change, exploring what’s next, and creating a vision for this new chapter of life.

This journey has shown me that transitions while challenging, can be an incredible opportunity for growth and self-discovery. If you’re navigating change, what’s one thing you’ve learned about yourself along the way? 💛

This year, I started silent walks on cold, dark mornings, and they’ve taught me so much about resilience and being present. I’ve realised how much this work mirrors what a tree does over winter—quietly strengthening itself beneath the surface. Then, in spring, it blooms into a beautiful new version of itself.

Pairing these walks with meditation and yoga, I’ve found a sense of calm and clarity that shapes my day. One of the most valuable lessons? When you show up for yourself consistently, even in small ways, it transforms how you approach life’s challenges.

What’s one habit you’ve embraced this year? Let me know below. 💙

🌥️ Feeling in a Funk? Here’s How I Shift Out of Mine 🌤️

We all have those days when we feel stuck, unmotivated, or just plain off. Here’s what helped me shift the energy and move forward:

✨ Acknowledge & Accept: It’s okay to feel off. Be gentle with yourself—no judgment, just compassion.
✨ Move Your Body: A quick walk or stretch can clear mental fog.
✨ One Small Win: Pick one simple task and tackle it. Remember, small actions build momentum.
✨ Connect: Reach out to a friend or loved one. Even a short chat can lighten the load.
✨ Change Your Environment: Rearrange a room, step outside, or switch up your routine to shake off the funk.
✨ Mindful Breathing: Take a few deep breaths or sit quietly for a moment to reset and centre yourself.

Luckily, funks don’t last forever. Take small, compassionate steps, and you’ll find your way forward. 💛

Here are some gentle yet effective exercise options to consider:

Walking: A simple and accessible way to get moving, walking improves circulation and reduces stress.
