Why Women Stop Listening to Themselves

from Don’t Let The Old Lady In · host Loriei

A conversation about losing your voice, finding your way back, and remembering that the answers are often found in the questions. Have you ever looked around and realized you’ve spent years taking care of everyone else…but haven’t stopped to ask yourself one simple question? How am I doing? In this Conversation with Lorie, I explore why so many women gradually stop listening to themselves—not because they’re weak, but because they’re generous, responsible, and deeply caring. As a registered nurse, healthcare advocate, and board-certified health and wellness coach, I’ve seen this pattern throughout my career. I’ve also lived it myself. I share the story of discovering meditation during one of the busiest and most stressful seasons of my life, and how creating moments of stillness helped me reconnect with my own inner voice. In this conversation, we’ll explore: Why women often become disconnected from themselves over time The hidden cost of always putting others first How meditation became one of the most important tools in my wellness toolbox Why asking better questions leads to more meaningful change Lorie’s Question of the Week My hope is that you’ll leave this conversation feeling understood, encouraged, and reminded that it’s never too late to reconnect with yourself. Until our next conversation… Remember… The answers are in the questions. Thank you for listening. I wish you an amazing aging journey, so I have listed a few resources for you to get you started.
