Menopause rage is real.
And it’s not a personality flaw.

I’m feeling it this week.

More anger.
More tears.
More sensory overload.

Lights feel too bright.
Noise feels unbearable.
Too cold. Too hot. Too dry.
Everything feels… irritating.

Here’s what’s actually happening in the body 👇

During perimenopause and menopause, estrogen and progesterone fluctuate and decline. These hormones don’t just regulate reproduction — they directly influence:

• serotonin and dopamine (mood stability)
• GABA (calm and emotional buffering)
• the stress response (HPA axis + cortisol)

As estrogen drops, the nervous system becomes less buffered against stress.
The result? A lower threshold for irritation and a faster jump into fight-or-flight.

Add in:
• a taxed nervous system
• poor sleep
• blood sugar swings
• higher sugar intake

…and cortisol spikes even more easily.

Blood sugar instability alone can trigger:
• irritability
• anxiety
• anger
• emotional reactivity

And yes — inflammation plays a role, especially when combined with hormonal shifts. Inflammation impacts brain signaling, stress hormones, and emotional regulation. When the system is inflamed, the brain reads the world as less safe.

So the rage?
It’s not random.
It’s not weakness.
It’s a nervous system on high alert without the hormonal support it once had.

This is why menopause can feel like:
• emotional whiplash
• sensory overwhelm
• zero tolerance for bu****it
• sudden outbursts followed by guilt or tears

Your body isn’t broken.
It’s asking for regulation, stability, and support — not shame.

And no… “just calm down” has never worked for a dysregulated nervous system.

✨ Nervous system work
✨ Blood sugar support
✨ Hormone-informed care
✨ Somatic regulation

These aren’t luxuries in this season — they’re necessities.

If you’re feeling this too, you’re not alone.
And you’re not crazy.

Your body is communicating.

Hattie Sunday Wisdom 🐾

Hattie is staring out the window, completely still.
Ears perked. Eyes focused.
Waiting for squirrels to run by.

None do.

But she doesn’t spiral.
She doesn’t get frustrated.
She doesn’t decide she’s doing something wrong.

She’s simply ready.

And here’s her wisdom for us:

You don’t have to be in constant motion to be productive.
You don’t have to chase what hasn’t arrived yet.
You don’t have to force timing that isn’t ready.

Sometimes the most regulated, powerful state is quiet readiness.

Being present.
Being open.
Trusting that when it’s time to move—you’ll know.

Until then?
Rest your nervous system.
Breathe.
Stay curious, not tense.

The squirrels will come.
And if they don’t today… that doesn’t mean you’re failing.

— Hattie 🐶✨

I’m not a medium

I am a psychic

I never have never advertised myself as a medium because I haven’t embraced that power fully.

I know how to do it, I just don’t open that channel as much as I do my others

This happens in my sessions, like last night.

My client came for a reiki appointment, she lost both parents recently and this will be her first holiday without them, so it’s been a rough couple of weeks

When I channel, I write down all information that pops into my head.

When I’m done with the session, I will then go over all the notes and things that came up.

Normally the things that come forward are from your higher self from your guides and I interpret symbols etc, to piece together what you need to know at this time.

But the session was a little bit deeper and her parents had come forward before, but last night seemed really special and really important

So I tell her I saw a gold wreath pin that goes on a jacket and she started tearing up and said, “my mother has a gold wreath pin, It’s in the jewelry box “

I was like “yeah she’s telling me that she wants you to take it out I think you should wear it “

And then I said I keep seeing rice and beans like a Mexican dish and she starts laughing and says “that was my dad‘s favorite thing to do was go to mariachi and have a margarita eat Mexican food.”

I laughed and I said “I think he wants you to go to mariachi and get a margarita like”

We both laughed

she was able to leave with a knowing they are showing up in different ways this holiday season.
They wanted her to know they are with her. It’s sounds so cliche, but it is the truth, our loved ones are always with us, and they enjoy when we honor or celebrate them, or talk to them ❤️

So take some time today to honor your loved ones. Set out their favorite treats, put on their favorite music, put up their pictures, or just have a chat with them

We may grieve and feel the physical absence at Christmas but know they are celebrating with you in spirit ❤️

Life doesn’t just change your circumstances… it rewires your nervous system.

Motherhood.
Career shifts.
Marriage.
Divorce.
Death.
Menopause.

These aren’t just “hard seasons.”
They are full-body neurological events.

Your nervous system is constantly asking:
Am I safe? Am I supported? Am I allowed to rest?

And with every major life transition:
• Your identity shifts
• Your hormones change
• Your attachments activate
• Your sense of safety is challenged
• Your body learns new survival patterns

Even the happy changes can trigger anxiety.
Even the expected endings can feel unbearable.

That’s not weakness.
That’s biology.

When the nervous system stays in survival too long, it shows up as:
• Anxiety
• Burnout
• Emotional numbness
• People-pleasing
• Insomnia
• Overworking
• Shutdown
• Panic
• Losing yourself

You’re not broken.
Your body has just been holding too much for too long.

Healing isn’t about “thinking positive.”
It’s about teaching your body that the danger has passed.

And that’s where everything changes.
🤍

✨ If you’re ready to stop surviving and start feeling safe inside your own body again…
My 3-Month Nervous System & Somatic Healing Program is open for enrollment.

This is for the woman who is done white-knuckling life and ready for:
• Calm without forcing it
• Confidence without overthinking
• Rest without guilt
• Safety without hyper-vigilance

💬 Comment “RESET” or DM me “HEAL” and I’ll send you the details.

You don’t have to do this alone anymore.
