#47 A Woman’s Second Becoming: Navigating Perimenopause, Identity, and Self-Love
from Redefining Love with Tara Portelli · host Tara Portelli
One day you wake up and something feels different. Your body is changing. Your mind feels foggy. Your emotions move in unfamiliar ways, and the person you once knew in the mirror seems to be shifting into someone new. As we age, our youthful beauty slowly begins to slip away, and we transition into a profound metamorphosis of the body. In its place, we step into earned wisdom and a deeper internal beauty, learning to release the need for external validation. As a tribute to International Women’s Day, I want to discuss the changes happening in the aging female body as she enters into perimenopause and beyond. The difficulty of navigating a physically different version of ourselves, and how we can preserve our bodies, manage symptoms, and deepen a compassionate and loving relationship with ourselves. Moving through these changes is not easy. Sometimes it can even feel terrifying as we grieve the loss of our youth. But within this transition also lives an invitation, to understand our worth more deeply and to recognize all that we bring to the world through the wisdom that comes with age.
