Midlife Grief in Women: Identity Loss, Hormones & How to Pivot After Change

Send us Fan Mail What if the thing that’s making you feel lost, numb, restless—or strangely relieved—isn’t a crisis… but grief? In this episode of Women on the Brink, we explore the quiet, complicated grief that so many women encounter in midlife—the grief of relationships ending (even the right ones), parents aging or dying, careers shifting, identities dissolving, and the younger version of ourselves we can no longer be. Through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine, nervous system wisdom, and deeply personal stories, we unpack how grief lives in the body, why it often precedes profound change, and how to pivot—not bounce back—into the next chapter. If you’ve been wondering, Who am I now?… this conversation may help you see that grief isn’t the end. It’s the reorientation. Support the showThanks for listening and feel free to follow us on different social media platforms - Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube and on our website www.womenonthebrink.net.  If you're wanting to connect with the host, Chris Jeffrey R.Ac. for further information, you can do so here:Contact Chris
