Taking Care of Our Own... “Why didn’t anyone tell me?” That question stops here. Did anyone prepare you? Or did you, like so many of us, feel like you were the only one-until you finally cracked open the conversation with another woman who had been there? And suddenly, you weren’t alone anymore. This is how we break the cycle: by talking, sharing, and lifting each other up. We look out for each other. We make sure the next woman doesn’t hit the same roadblocks. Because #menopause-and every phase of womanhood, isn’t just an individual experience. It’s a generational responsibility. We owe this to each other. The women before us, the women beside us, and the women coming up next. We lean on each other. I want to help you speak up, embrace the changes, and step into your power—so the next generation sees strength, wisdom, and a trailblazer to follow.

Can You Just Be... Somewhere out there, a woman is staring at the ceiling at 3 AM, willing herself to sleep while replaying everything she didn’t check off her to-do list. Another is FaceTiming her family, running on fumes, ignoring the exhaustion settling deep in her bones because slowing down feels like losing ground. And someone else? She’s foggy, drained, and wondering why no one ever told her that #menopause isn’t just about hot flashes—it’s about learning to pause when the world keeps demanding you push. I see you. And I want to talk to you. Not to sell you. Not to fix you. But to remind you that rest isn’t something you have to earn. You deserve your own time, your own care, your own energy—without apology! So if you need to hit pause, hit it hard. Lay down. Stare at the ceiling. Take the damn nap. Book the trip. Sink into stillness. The world will keep spinning, and when you get back up, you’ll be clearer, stronger, and have fewer WTF moments. But if rest feels impossible—if pausing makes you anxious or guilty—I get it. Let’s talk about why. Let me help you get there. Your radiant self is in there, discover how to go get her by working with me. Trust yourself to begin a chat with akindcoaching.

Ambivalence: The Scenic Route to Nowhere... To the ones stuck in "maybe later"... I see you. That space between wanting and doing? It’s familiar. You read, listen, learn, contemplate—yet nothing shifts. Welcome to The Contemplation Zone—where you almost say yes, almost take the leap, almost trust yourself. But then… hesitation. Again. Here’s what I know to be true: Ambivalence isn’t failure—it’s just the long way around. Contemplation always comes before action, and uncertainty before commitment. Your brain resists change to keep you safe—but real growth? It happens when you move through the resistance, not around it. So what’s the real game-changer? Courage and clarity. Because when your why is strong, action follows. And when you understand ambivalence, you stop seeing hesitation as a stop sign—and start using it as a guide. No pressure. No leaps. Just a conversation. So ask yourself: What’s holding you back? Your radiant self is in there, discover how to go get her by working with me. Trust yourself to begin a chat with akindcoaching.

Finding Funny in the Flash ~ #Menopause Channeling humor in life's challenges is a true art. For me, navigating menopause has been no exception. From the relentless hot flashes to the comical brain fog moments of entering a room and forgetting the purpose, it's a journey filled with surprises. However, embracing the laughter amidst it all has become my secret weapon. As your coach, I’m here to help you rediscover that lightness—because joy has a way of sneaking back in when you let it. Don’t you want to laugh and feel amazing again? Your radiant self is in there, discover how to go get her by working with me, trust yourself to begin a chat with akindcoaching.

Mirror, Mirror… Women! Who do you see in the mirror? More importantly—who’s hiding in the shadows? Navigating shadow work in midlife mirrors the complexities of menopause—an uninvited companion bringing forth messy truths and relentless revelations. It's a journey that can render you hypersensitive or hyper-attached, both equally draining experiences. So why do it? Because what we bury doesn’t disappear—it waits. And in midlife (thanks, menopause), it demands to be seen. Release the Baggage – Let go of old wounds, resentment, and fear. Wake Up to Yourself – Recognize your patterns, triggers, and hidden beliefs. Transform & Grow – Free up energy for the life you actually want. Deepen Connection – Relate with empathy, take things less personally. Own Your Power – Embrace all of you, unapologetically. Shadow work isn’t about fixing yourself—you were never broken. It’s about reclaiming what’s been lost and stepping into the most badass, authentic version of you. So, do you love your reflection? Not just the “good” parts. All of it. Every messy, luminous, powerful piece of you... Midlife throws a mirror at you whether you like it or not. You can avoid it, argue with it, or do the real work: face it, talk to it, be it.

Picture This... I had a photo shoot. Midlife. I danced, I sang, I felt free and alive. Vibrant. Empowered. I owned every second of it. Proud of myself, proud of the woman I’ve become. And yes, I’m post-menopausal. I did it to launch my coaching business—a passion project born to help lift women into their power during this incredible season of life. So yes, I did a photo shoot—not to flood a feed with pictures of myself, but to build a brand with a message that truly connects. A message rooted in what matters most to me: supporting women, fostering empathy, empowering change, and rewriting the outdated narrative around menopause. #Menopause has been treated like a taboo for far too long. Midlife women are dismissed, told they’re “dried up,” irrelevant, or over the hill. But let me ask—when a midlife woman steps into her power and builds something meaningful, why does judgment often follow? If my unapologetic showing up—whether it’s rocking my portable fan on a Zoom call or launching a bold new chapter—makes someone uncomfortable, that’s on them. Because this season of life isn’t about shrinking to fit someone else’s idea of who we should be. It’s about rewriting the story. As a coach, my journey matters because I’ve been through it too. I know the confusion, the frustrations, the changes. But this isn’t about me—it’s about you. It’s about helping you find your radiant, unstoppable self, the one who’s still in there waiting for you to trust her again. So yes, I did a photo shoot—because I take this work seriously. This is bigger than me. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to put yourself first, that time is now. I’m here to pay it forward—part heart-centered mentor, part kick-ass motivator, and 100% all in on you!

When Menopause Meets Insomnia... Oh, I know you know this feeling. It’s not pretty. It’s messy, disruptive, and it follows you from bed to boardroom. Sleep is non-negotiable, yet #menopause and quality rest seem to have clashing agendas. Studies show that sleep problems spike during this life season, and if we’re not careful, deprivation sneaks in like an uninvited guest. Let’s chat about getting you back to Sleeping Beauty status—because if you don’t, that lack of rest has a ripple effect. Sleep deprivation can bring on a cascade of health issues, like those listed below.

From Field to Feels, #Philly Style I know, it might sound strange to talk about the National Football League (NFL) and #menopause in the same breath, but stick with me—there’s a real connection here. A.J. Brown? (Go Birds!) He’s on a wavelength that vibes way beyond the game. Seeing him deep into Inner Excellence by Jim Murphy during their Wild Card victory? Total YES moment. Even his helmet screams on brand! It’s proof that #mindset isn’t just part of the game—it is the game. And transformation — especially the wild ride of #menopause — is no different. It’s not just about physical shifts; it’s about owning the emotional, mental, and spiritual changes that come with it. This is your moment to recalibrate, refocus, and rise. Whether you’re on the field, in the boardroom, or surviving the chaos of daily life, adversity demands grit. It’s about showing up for yourself, leaning into discomfort, and keeping it real—no matter the season of life. So, take a cue from A.J. Brown. Just like he resets between plays to bring his A-game, you can carve out those moments to pause, breathe, and tap into your inner badass. Athlete, parent, professional—adversity doesn’t discriminate. Let’s be real: we could all learn a thing or two from A.J.—because resilience? That’s the ultimate power move. Go Birds!

Scariest Place to Be? Stuck Where You Were Last Year... Picture this: you, mid-dance, not entirely sure if you’re nailing the routine or about to make the wrong move. But you keep going—dancing, moving, stepping into the unknown. That’s the mantra for 2025: don’t care who’s watching, who’s judging, or who’s got something to say. Just keep being you ?? Keep moving. Refuse to settle for anything less than forward momentum. It’s not about chasing perfection—it’s about embracing and owning the incredible new you. It’s about stepping into change (sometimes tripping over it), wobbling through the chaos, and eventually finding your own groove. Sure, #menopause might throw its full arsenal at you—every symptom in the book (and some that aren’t even listed)—but here’s the plot twist: You’re not just surviving. You’re thriving. You’re still out there, going, doing, being! Here’s what I know for sure: Every stumble? A hard-earned badge of courage. Every wobble? Proof you’re mastering resilience, one step at a time. Every recovery? Evidence that you’re nothing short of unstoppable. 2025 isn’t waiting, and neither should you.

Escape the Prison of Your Own Prism... #Menopause is a time of profound change—a natural invitation to step out of the confinement of a prism that’s become a prison. This isn’t about dusting shelves or scrubbing floors (though I love a good purge); it’s about cleaning house within yourself. What works for me might not work for you. I’ve been doing solo yoga retreats for years, and during this phase of my life, they’ve become downright essential. Going alone might sound intimidating, but for me? It’s sacred,?non-negotiable time. Embrace simplicity: pack a backpack and a dose of bravery. Forget the makeup, the blow dryer, and all that extra “just in case” stuff. Whether it's a yoga retreat, a woodland cabin, or a serene Airbnb by the water, allow yourself the freedom to be authentic and focus on what truly matters and rediscover the evolving self.? Going solo is about reclaiming your time, your energy, and your sense of self. You can do it too. Here’s what I’ve learned—and what I love guiding others to discover: ? Let go of what’s not working, and you’ll create space for what does. ? Release the stress, and you’ll uncover the calm within. ? Detach, & break free from what depletes you~reinvest in what lights you up. Menopause isn’t just a phase; it’s a portal into a more aligned, attuned version of yourself. You have to seek it to see it! It takes guts to pause, face the discomfort, and build the foundation for a life that feels authentically yours. This isn’t about escaping life—it’s about diving headfirst into it, breaking free from the prison of your prism, and shedding the constraints of self-imposed limitations.
