92. Women Over 40 Are Drowning — But Here's What No One Wants to Talk About
from Perimenopause Simplified · host Claudia Petrilli
Women over 40 aren't just "busy" – they're overloaded. In this episode, we talk honestly about why so many midlife women feel like they're drowning: the pressure to over-function, checked-out partners, overbooked kids, rising costs of living, comparison culture, and hormones pushed past their limits. You'll hear what most people are afraid to say out loud and practical shifts that help you slow down, ask for support, set boundaries, and build a life that actually feels sustainable. What You'll Learn: Why so many women slip into "masculine overdrive" and what it costs your health How passive partner dynamics get created (and how communication can change it) The invisible mental load most women carry every single day How overscheduling kids and volunteering yourself into exhaustion keeps you stuck The impact of social media, body trends, and constant comparison on midlife women Simple, realistic shifts to create breathing room, protect your energy, and feel like yourself again LOVE THE SHOW?
