Perimenopause - Energy Leaks | SOVEREIGN Magazine® Podcast with Julie Beck

Trigger Warning: In this episode of the SOVEREIGN Magazine® Podcast, host Nicole George welcomes Julie Beck, SOVEREIGN Magazine’s Perimenopause (Peri-Power) columnist and spiritual life coach, to explore the August New Moon theme of Growth through Julie’s article “Growth: The Season You Are Becoming.” Julie shares how her own perimenopause and burnout led her to slow down, set boundaries, and prioritize self-care, emphasizing that growth is often subtle and only visible in hindsight. They discuss how perimenopause varies widely in symptoms, how over-giving and chronic busyness create “energy leaks,” and why acceptance, boundaries, and care are essential. Julie offers journal prompts to help listeners reflect on what to stop tolerating, what boundaries are needed, and what their higher self wants them to trust, and guides a “Steps to Your Sovereign Self” exercise writing a letter from five years in the future.00:00 Trigger Warning01:07 Meet Julie Beck02:00 Perimenopause as Growth05:24 Symptoms and Awareness08:20 Overgiving and Boundaries10:56 ABC Feminine Flow13:12 Vertigo Tip and Trick15:33 Journal Prompts Practice18:18 Slow Growth and Unfolding22:24 Letter to Future Self25:50 Menopause Power Reframe27:55 Habit vs Alignment CheckConnect with Julie BeckEmailInstagramWebsiteFacebookProducer’s credits:Nicole George - Podcast Host | CEO/Founder SOVEREIGN Magazine® | Editor-in-Chief Ariane Lim - Podcast Producer + EngineerSara Wagle - Audio Efficiency & Flow ManagerLatest Issue: Click here Become a Columnist: learn more here.Connect with Us:InstagramFacebookLinkedInSubstackYouTubeThreads
