The conversation you’re avoiding may be the one that changes everything.

How many times have we hoped things would get better on their own?

We hope someone will notice. We hope they’ll change. We hope that if we wait long enough, things will somehow work themselves out.

But sometimes the greatest act of self-love isn’t waiting. It’s finding the courage to tell yourself the truth, speak up, and have the conversation that could change the direction of your life. That’s what we’re talking about today.

In this episode of The Menopause Mindshift Self-Love Podcast, The Menopause Queen, Lisa R. Triggs, sits down with Marcelle LeBlanc for an honest conversation about communication, relationships, and why the conversations we avoid can sometimes be the ones we need most.

Midlife can bring greater clarity about who we are, what we want, what we value, and what we’re no longer willing to accept. Marcelle shares how learning to communicate those things clearly can help us address resentment, disappointment, disconnection, and unmet needs before years pass without anything changing.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

👑 Why avoiding difficult conversations can create greater distance in relationships

👑 How to get clear about what you actually want before starting the conversation

👑 A practical way to communicate what’s wrong, explain how it’s affecting you, and make a specific request

👑 Why midlife can bring new awareness to relationship patterns, boundaries, and values we may have carried with us for years

Women spend years caring for families, building careers, managing relationships, and taking care of everyone around them. Somewhere along the way, their own happiness, creativity, and passions can quietly move further down the list.

In this episode of The Menopause Mindshift Self-Love Podcast, The Menopause Queen, Lisa R. Triggs, sits down with Kenya E. Aissa, former social worker, wellness entrepreneur, author, founder of Ruby Envy Wellness, and creator of Escape to Create, to talk about what happens when women decide to put themselves back on that list.

Kenya shares why creativity, movement, mindfulness, and self-expression can help women reconnect with parts of themselves they may have lost along the way, and why choosing your own happiness and mental wellness is an important part of self-love.

In this conversation, you’ll discover:

👑 Why women can struggle to give themselves permission to prioritize their own happiness

👑 How creativity, movement, and mindfulness can help women reconnect with themselves

👑 Why returning to old passions or discovering new ones can be especially meaningful during midlife

👑 How choosing yourself can become an act of self-love rather than something to feel guilty about

Sometimes returning to joy starts with one decision: stop waiting for someone else to give you permission.

What are you still carrying that may no longer be serving you?

During menopause and midlife, old hurts can feel louder. Relationships can shift. Emotions can become heightened, and things that were once tolerated may suddenly feel impossible to ignore.

In this episode of The Menopause Mindshift Self-Love Podcast, The Menopause Queen, Lisa R. Triggs, is talking about what happens when we continue to carry anger, guilt, resentment, old memories, and the need for an apology or resolution we may never receive.

Because letting go doesn’t mean what happened didn’t matter. It means deciding how much of your energy you’re willing to continue giving it.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

👑 Why old hurts and unresolved emotions can feel amplified during menopause and midlife

👑 How to recognize when holding on is keeping you stuck instead of helping you heal

👑 Practical ways to begin releasing anger, guilt, and negative thoughts through writing, visualization, and shifting your perspective

👑 Why moving forward doesn’t always require an apology, explanation, or resolution from someone else

There comes a point when we get to decide what still belongs in our lives, what we’ve learned from, what we’re ready to release, and how we want to move forward from here.

Sometimes choosing yourself means finally deciding that you’re ready to let go.

Menopause symptoms can feel confusing, especially when everything gets blamed on hormones. In this episode of The Menopause Mindshift Self-Love Podcast, Julie Ashlock and I talk about why it’s important to look at the bigger picture. We discuss how nutrition, movement, sleep, hydration, inflammation, stress, and individual health differences can all influence the way women feel during menopause, and why there’s no single approach that works for everyone.

We also explore the value of becoming your own health advocate, asking better questions, and understanding what your body may actually need in this stage of life. Julie explains how testing can offer a more personalized look at health, and we spend time talking about practical strategies for better sleep, supporting the body naturally, and making informed decisions about menopause care.

✨ Why menopause symptoms aren’t always about estrogen alone.

✨ How sleep, nutrition, movement, hydration, and inflammation can affect the way you feel.

✨ Why a personalized approach can be more effective than a one-size-fits-all solution.

✨ Practical ways to better understand and support your body during menopause.

Julie Ashlock is a Certified Menopause Coaching Specialist, Certified Master Health Coach, Certified Nutritionist, and massage therapist who works primarily with women navigating midlife and menopause. She helps women better understand what may be happening beneath the surface by combining health education, lifestyle strategies, supplementation, and testing to create a more personalized approach to wellness. Her goal is to help women feel informed, supported, and confident as they navigate this next chapter of life.

Someday is one of the most dangerous words we can say to ourselves.

In this episode of The Menopause Mindshift Self-Love Podcast, I'm joined by Pat Schultz for an inspiring conversation about fear, self-trust, and the courageous decisions that can change the direction of our lives. We explore why so many women postpone their dreams, how our brains naturally interpret uncertainty as danger, and why waiting until we feel confident often keeps us exactly where we are. Together, we discuss the connection between fear, self-love, and personal growth, and why one small courageous step is often all it takes to begin creating lasting change.

Whether you're navigating menopause, starting over, or simply wondering if it's too late to pursue something that's been on your heart, this conversation is a reminder that the life you want isn't waiting for more confidence. It's waiting for your first courageous step.

Pat Schultz is the author of Does Your Bucket List Have a Hole in It?, speaker, coach, and founder of I'm Ready 4 Takeoff. Inspired by discovering a college paper her mother wrote about the life she dreamed of living but never experienced, Pat dedicated her work to helping people stop postponing their dreams. Through her writing and coaching, she encourages others to move beyond fear, trust themselves, and create a life that reflects their values, purpose, and the legacy they want to leave behind.

✔️ Why fear often disguises itself as discomfort and keeps us from taking the first step.

✔️ How one courageous decision can begin changing the way you think, feel, and move forward.

✔️ Why waiting for confidence may be the very thing keeping you stuck.

✔️ How self-love includes believing you're worthy of pursuing the life you truly want.

Menopause can change more than your hormones. It can change your brain, your thoughts, and the way you speak to yourself. But those changes don't have to define your future.

In this episode of The Menopause Mindshift Self-Love Podcast, The Menopause Queen, Lisa R. Triggs explores why your brain changes during menopause and what you can do about it. You'll discover how neuroplasticity, your brain's remarkable ability to create new neural pathways, can help you build greater self-trust, emotional resilience, and self-love. Lisa walks us through how hormone changes, past experiences, and lifelong beliefs influence the way you think and respond to the challenges of menopause.

If you've been struggling with brain fog, negative self-talk, low confidence, or feeling like you've lost yourself during menopause, this episode will encourage you to think differently. You'll learn why your menopause brain isn't fixed, why change is possible at any age, and how small, intentional shifts can help you begin creating healthier thought patterns that support the woman you're becoming.

✔️ What neuroplasticity is and how your brain creates and strengthens new neural pathways.

✔️ Why menopause can change the way you speak to yourself and how to interrupt negative thought patterns.

✔️ How childhood experiences, lifelong beliefs, and hormone changes continue to influence your mindset.

✔️ Practical tools to build greater emotional resilience, strengthen self-trust, and retrain your brain during menopause.
