Menopause, Rewired: A Mind Change Roundtable

from The Mind Change Podcast Hosted by Mind Change

In this episode Heather hosts an honest, hopeful roundtable with Cadence McKean (18), McKenzie Brewster (32), and Angela Hooper (53) on reframing menopause as a brain “upgrade” and a powerful moment of neuroplasticity. Together they explore working with the cycle from teen years onward, viewing symptoms as intelligent signals (like hot flashes linked to unexpressed anger), and the cultural narratives that disconnect women from their bodies—including the reflex to medicate without listening first. You’ll hear real stories, practical practices (silence, nature, attuned rest), and a call to start writing your post‑menopause story today. What we covered in this episode: 🌙 Menopause as a Unique Neuroplasticity Window 🔥 Symptoms as Messages From the Body 😡 Unexpressed Anger and Hot Flashes 🪞 Identity Shifts in Menopause & Life Transitions 📖 Writing Your Post-Menopause Story Now 👉 Full resources, courses & community: mindchange.com 👍 Like what you hear?
