Episode 4: Menopause, Grief, and Embracing Who We Really Are
From Midlife Musings · 55:46
Show by Marci Nevin and Andrea Orona
This episode goes deep.We're talking about entering full menopause and the grief that can accompany it, which often catches women completely off guard but is rarely spoken about. It's not just about losing your cycle. For many of us, it's about mourning a loss of identity as a woman, the closing of a chapter, and reconciling with choices we made along the way.We also open up about our decisions not to have biological children, how we feel about those choices now, and the freedom and complexity that comes with them. And we celebrate something unexpected: the confidence, clarity, and genuine lack of concern about others' opinions that seems to arrive when entering our 40’s. This conversation is honest, vulnerable, and unapologetic. If you've ever felt complicated emotions about aging, motherhood, or who you're becoming, we hope this episode makes you feel a little less alone.Connect With Us:@marcinevin @eats_by_dre_nutritionThanks so much for listening.
