It’s time to name what’s really happening. 🔥 The myth of the “raging menopausal woman”? Completely misrepresented. Women aren’t losing control — they’re gaining clarity. What we are seeing is a rise in men projecting their unprocessed emotions, especially online.💬 Social media & the midlife identity crisis From condescending comments to attention‑seeking posts, many men are expressing frustration not through reflection, but through aggression.

Patti Talks Too Much Patti Hi. I'm Patti and it's been said - many times - that I talk too much. I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general. You know, the rest of us weird, quirky and sometimes hilarious humans.We'll talk woo, probe mysteries and leave you thinking about something more interesting or entertaining or uplifting than your grocery list, or boss or that oil change your car needs. I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature. I do a podcast because it's cheaper, funnier and more productive than therapy.  Trauma Talks : With Russ Tellup rtellup Hi, I’m Russ Tellup, a Trauma-Informed Somatic Coach and Level 1 Brainspotting practitioner.
