What if menopause isn't about becoming someone new, but about reconnecting with the woman you already are?

In this episode, Adele explores how perimenopause and menopause can become a powerful time of reflection, helping you reconnect with your identity, ambition, joy and sense of purpose.

Have you lost your confidence during perimenopause, or have you simply lost trust in yourself?
What happens when a woman who has always been capable, ambitious and confident suddenly starts questioning every decision she makes? In this episode, Adele explores the powerful connection between perimenopause, self-belief and self-trust, and why feeling less capable does not necessarily mean that you are less capable. From brain fog and poor sleep to anxiety, overwhelm and the pressures of midlife, she unpacks the perfect storm that can erode confidence - and shares practical ways to rebuild trust in yourself, one small step at a time.

Why so many women feel overwhelmed, exhausted and emotionally stretched and why menopause can turn the volume massively up on everything.
What happens when the emotional load of life becomes too much to carry, especially while navigating perimenopause or menopause? In this deeply honest episode, Adele explores why feeling overwhelmed, exhausted or unable to cope doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong with you. From grief and relationships to family, work and the invisible load women carry, she looks at how menopause can turn up the volume on everything and asks a powerful question: are you failing to cope, or are you simply carrying too much?
What if you haven't lost yourself in menopause, but are simply becoming someone new?
