In this episode, we tackle the important topic of the connection between menopause and the mind. Sally Garozzo, a specialist in this area, provides insightful perspectives on how menopause affects not just physical changes but also impacts a woman's mindset, emotions, behavior, and overall sense of self.
Key learnings:
1. Menopause is a complete life transition that goes beyond just physical symptoms. It affects a woman's mental health, decision-making, habits, and how she views herself and the world around her.
2. Common psychological symptoms during perimenopause and menopause include anxiety, insomnia, overwhelm, burnout, identity loss, and low mood or depression.
3. Understanding the changes happening during this phase is empowering and can help alleviate fear and confusion.
4. Practicing self-care, embracing biorhythms (sleep patterns, seasonal changes), and engaging in strength training can significantly improve both physical and mental well-being during this transition.
5. For business owners and entrepreneurs, it's crucial to reassess the alignment between personal values, goals, and the business vision, making adjustments as needed to accommodate the changes brought about by menopause.
