Ep 23: Perimenopause Reimagined: Chaos, Clarity & the Rise of the Wise Woman
0 Playsin 4 hours
A season of shifting, softening, laughing… and remembering who you’ve always been.
In this feel-good episode, we laugh through the chaos of perimenopause and menopause while exploring the powerful transformations happening beneath the surface. We talk about the body’s natural recalibration, the brain’s surprising rewiring for clarity, the nervous system’s call to slow down, and the deep identity expansion that emerges in this season. With growing confidence, emotional wisdom, and a newfound sense of freedom, this phase becomes less of an ending and more of a reawakening, the rise of the Wise Woman: clear, grounded, compassionate, and connected.

Introduction to 'What's My Age Again'
00:00:00
Speaker
Welcome to What's My Age Again, the realest podcast for women who are done chasing trends and ready to feel empowered. Hi, I'm Kim. And I'm Tanya, holistic nutritionists and childhood best friends who've been there, done that, and bought the collagen.
00:00:16
Speaker
more than once. Each week we provide actionable steps that you can start today to help you thrive through every decade to come. We're cutting through the wellness noise to bring you honest conversations about aging, hormones, health, beauty, mindset, and everything in between.
00:00:33
Speaker
You see, we're also on a mission to age gracefully one WTF moment at a time. Backed by research and real life, we're here to share what actually works, what's a waste of time, and how to truly thrive through the messy, magical midlife transition.
00:00:49
Speaker
We're so happy you're here. Let's dive in.
Changing the Narrative on Aging
00:00:54
Speaker
Hi, everyone. Welcome back to What's My Age again. hi Tanya. Hey, Kim. How are you? I'm good. i'm good. I'm excited about this episode today. Of course you are. I'm excited too. But um this is like the opposite of all of the things we usually see. So that's why it's super exciting to talk about. So when we look at social media, in the so society in general, we scroll endless memes. I know because me and you send them to one another. um Not after bedtime, of course, not looking at that blue light, but send them to each other.
00:01:29
Speaker
about perimenopause, menopause, and aging, because they're funny, they're relatable, and unfortunately a lot of them are true, but the one theme that they all are, if you were to categorize them, they put aging, perimenopause, menopause, all of this stuff in more of a negative light.
00:01:49
Speaker
Right? Exactly. Exactly. And so we're going to dive into sort of a different take on aging today, but we want to be clear. We're still, we're not sugarcoating anything. We still get those symptoms. We still get annoyed. We're still going to send those memes, but this episode is going to be a little different.
00:02:10
Speaker
It's all about creating balance and balance. we thought it was so important to talk today about the positive sides of perimenopause, menopause, and just growing older as women.
00:02:26
Speaker
Because it's not talked about a lot. Again, the memes are funny. I love me a good hot flash meme, okay? But like, we're missing out on a whole other side of the story. And you said this in another episode, Kim, what we focus on grows.
00:02:42
Speaker
Yeah, good point. And I mean, we say it Our title of our podcast, What's My Age Again, we we intend to age gracefully and we want to celebrate aging. So here we go.
00:02:56
Speaker
Here we go. Celebrate aging. um Yeah. So I think one of the most important things to kind of give overall preface to aging is that although it can feel for many different reasons and symptoms, that this season of our life, um we're mourning.
00:03:14
Speaker
We're mourning our 20s, maybe our 30s, even our early 40s, and we might be mourning our skin. and our the fact that I get up in the morning and literally by the time I'm downstairs working out, I still have creases on my face. We mourn things like that, but like we we're not ending something. We are literally recalibrating ourselves as women.
Hormonal Shifts and Recalibration
00:03:39
Speaker
This is a time when our physical bodies, our minds, our energy, our spirit, they really start to align. um
00:03:48
Speaker
and guide us into something more authentic, like a powerful super version of ourselves. I love that term, Tanya, recalibrating. And it's so true. Like from a biological standpoint, our body is also recalibrating, right? Our hormones are shifting, just like we were talking about our hormones shift going into puberty, um becoming, you know, and then all of a sudden our body is now recalibrating again, going into perimenopause. where we're slowing down. um
00:04:20
Speaker
and you know, this is a new internal rhythm and it's not supposed to work against you, even though yes, it feels like it while we're going through it. But as Tanya said, this can be a time to really redefine how we live.
00:04:36
Speaker
We think about how we move every day. We think about that nervous system, the base of the pyramid and how we nourish ourselves. It's a time to come really back to ourselves. And I think we talk about this so often in our episodes, where as women, we're so used to prioritizing everyone else.
00:04:56
Speaker
And what you know we can find is going through perimenopause and into menopause, it's really a time to really look inward and start prioritizing ourself again. Absolutely. And because like our body is literally recalibrating on that like biochemical level, right? The brain is actually rewiring itself and it's rewiring itself in favor of clarity. So physically, the brain undergoes like a significant um reorganization, literally due to, of course, we're not surprised, fluctuating and for most of us right now, declining levels of hormones. um
00:05:40
Speaker
And this impacts all of the things that we, a don't really enjoy, B, complain about, and see send those memes about, right? This actually affects our energy, our metabolism, the way we can connect and how we connect to other people. And it affects things like the regions in our brain that are responsible for our mood, our sleep, our memory. And that's just a couple things. So we see that this recalibration and this rewiring doesn't come without its challenges. But it also comes with huge positives that we may not realize and shedding light on them and being aware of them allows us to focus on them and make them actual, you know, realities in our lives that we didn't maybe realize before having this conversation.
00:06:33
Speaker
Totally. And just to clarify, when we're talking about rewiring, it becomes more clarity. Yes, we all are. We're talking about brain fog here. No. No.
00:06:45
Speaker
Because that is
Gaining Clarity and Authenticity
00:06:46
Speaker
one of the symptoms that we're going through. But I find a lot of, and a lot of my friends too, have this conversation of like, we talk about the, and maybe we don't swear on this podcast, but the I don't give an F era, right? It's a joke, but it's kind of true. It's because we're kind of coming back to ourselves. You know, one of the things that I personally struggled with for years, and if you know me,
00:07:11
Speaker
you, you, yeah, you know this about me. I struggled with using my voice. I discussed this, I think on the podcast earlier, this podcast, even for me is, you know, the chance for me to use my voice and not be perfect and to be able to share my knowledge. And this was huge for me because before perimenopause, I guess before my earlier years, that was really a struggle for me. And I find A lot of women are feeling the same way. They're really able to use their voice more, to really have a deep belief in who they are as a person. And that is the clarity I think we're talking about.
00:07:50
Speaker
Kim, that is so true. And I'm so proud of you as well, because I obviously talking about this podcast together for a very long time before we actually started it. um I know that. And like,
00:08:04
Speaker
but Yeah, i I can't say more about like how proud I am. And I love, love this for you. Thank you. And I love doing this with you. And even in terms of um stepping into your authenticity and using your voice. So for me, um you know, they say opposites to attract. And I think the truth is opposites attract in besties as well. Because for me, if if you know me, I've never had a problem, maybe sometimes to a fault, about speaking my truth freely um and making choices that align with my values.
00:08:40
Speaker
However... In this new clarity, as I age, it's just different. It's different in terms of how I go about that, the words that I use, and understanding how I convey that in a manner that isn't necessarily combative or aggressive, if that makes sense. And also, I've sunk so much more. My authenticity, that's going to shift and change as we grow. But this clarity for me, exactly. I feel like I've really stepped into my voice and my power, even just in my career, let's say, and who I am in knowing like, all of the stuff I thought I should be doing or should be kind of saying to go down my career path, like,
00:09:26
Speaker
Now we just know who we are and who our people are. And it might not be like everybody else's and and that's okay. So that clarity feels different, even for someone who had no problem, still done with speaking
Cultural Perspectives on Aging
00:09:39
Speaker
my voice.
00:09:40
Speaker
Well, and it's true, Tanya, this whole idea of perfectionism for me personally, people pleasing That's the sort of stuff that I'm moving away for from in this era of my life. um Because as you said, you can't you can't be you can't be liked by everybody, right? That's not the goal here. The goal is to be your authentic self and attract people who want your energy, who align with you, who need your support. And I think that is the clarity that I sort of have been getting in my forties and, you know, moving into this perimenopause phase. One thing I love Tanya, which made me think of this too, is we were talking at the beginning about celebrating getting older and an amazing book. And I think you've read it too, because we both went to the same holistic nutrition school. I know it's one healthy at a hundred. Yes.
00:10:34
Speaker
And it basically, this book is so amazing. it goes to, it basically talks about all the similarities in the blue zones and how people are living into a hundreds, into their hundreds centurions in these different blue zones and why. and they go through diet and lifestyle.
00:10:54
Speaker
And one of the key things that I found work that that's talked about in this book about all these places is that they actually celebrate getting older. They actually, they actually don't call it old age. They call it long lived.
00:11:11
Speaker
And it's such an interesting perspective change. You know, they're looking at the woman in her forties as somebody who has wisdom. They're looking at the woman in her nineties and a hundred as somebody who has wisdom and can bring such value to the community.
00:11:27
Speaker
I love that book and I loved reading it. I've reread it a couple times and you're right. It's actually the stark opposite to us here in North America where the culture is all about how young can I look? you know What can I do to make myself look younger? What's all the anti-aging products that I'm using? I'm not saying that I don't have those in my my medicine cabinet. We talked about them in one of our first podcasts, our skincare. You better believe my stuff's for mature skin. I'm still part of this society. So, but how different exactly? It's literally actually the stark opposite. And one thing that really struck me in that book was they were talking about lying about your age.
00:12:10
Speaker
And how beautiful it was that, I can't remember which blue zone specifically, um people lie about their age the other way. So if someone's like, how old are you? And they're like, I'm 91 because there's so much respect and reverence in aging, how lucky we are to age and gain wisdom. And we can share that with the people around us. We're here, someone's like, how old are you? And I want to be like, do I actually have to say my age? Or should I say like, how old do you think I am? You know what I mean? Like, imagine thinking you want to just be like 50. I'm 50.
00:12:42
Speaker
i'm fifty Like, you know, how beautiful would that be though? It's true. It's just a change in perspective. And like, I know so many people, it's talking about relevancy. We're talking about, like you said, that anti-aging lifestyle here where everything is about, you know, decreasing the look of aging 100%. And it's just a mind shift that I really, i don't know. I really loved it. This, it was a great book, Healthy at 100. We'll put it in the show notes.
00:13:13
Speaker
Absolutely. And one of the other things that I have loved so much about my journey in aging is having to do with one of our favorite topics, um the nervous system.
00:13:27
Speaker
And I think that we can refer this to, this one's a little bit... This is a difficult one. So stay with me on this. A nervous system reset, meaning our nervous system literally starts setting new limits. All of us.
00:13:42
Speaker
But it depends on how in tune we are with that. So this is why so many of us, Kim, you know you hear this in your circle with your clients. I do. I say it all the time. This.
00:13:53
Speaker
All of a sudden you're like, I'm done. done. I am done. yeah I'm done. Because all of a sudden, we're just done. We're done with the day. We're done with the BS. We just can't do it. Our nervous system is like, girl, you're done.
00:14:05
Speaker
Right? Totally. Well, and it goes, so it's that as well as we are, you know, so many of us women going through perimenopause are also, you know,
00:14:17
Speaker
Maybe we have full-time jobs. Maybe we're senior leaders in companies. We have, you know, families that we have to work with. We have potentially aging parents. Maybe we have teenagers going through puberty. Like there is a lot going on.
00:14:33
Speaker
And I really believe Tanya, as you said, our nervous system is start setting new limits because we're also going through perimenopause and all of these hormonal changes as well. And I think this is a time where it's teaching us that We need to pay attention to our nervous system.
00:14:48
Speaker
It's, it's, we have to. We have to. For sure. And so here's the thing with that is that it's our body's wisdom. Like our body's wisdom is trying to help. It's literally being like, Hey, I'm trying to help you reprioritize your self-care. So not to say that you are not going to care for anything else. You still have your job. You still have your kids. You're still have your aging parents, but like you need to prioritize your self-care. So you can care for others from a full cup. And that's why we start to wear thin. Think about it in your twenties and thirties. Most of us are, we're stacking it up, stack it more, stack it more. And we just worked through it. And now I don't remember saying I'm done in my twenties or thirties. Now I'm like, I am done. So here's the conscious. You could burn the candle at both ends. Exactly. I was burnt to crisp at birth ends. Like, I don't even know how we had it. i don't think we had a candle, but anyways. um And many many of us as women, we do listen to this call.
00:15:48
Speaker
I myself, I think the motto of my life for this year, for 2025 has been so take it slow. And I have been moving like a snail, but some of us and not in all areas of my life, we still have resistance towards it. Not necessarily because we're doing that intentionally, but life is busy. But the thing is the invitation from the nervous system is there for all of us, but yeah,
00:16:11
Speaker
Are we listening? How are we listening? And, you know, when will we listen? Totally. I agree. And i I think we talk about this all the time, too. It's.
The Role of Self-Care and Community
00:16:20
Speaker
when we support our nervous system and it it doesn't need to be difficult, but I think as busy women, it just sounds too easy. And it's the thing that we can knock off the to-do list easiest, like going to take some deep breaths. Like, do we have time for that? No, we move on. But our nervous system is asking us to make time. I completely agree with you, Tanya. And I love that.
00:16:43
Speaker
And like you said, we We can't take care of others. As you said, this is, you know, we, a lot of us are caregiving for many, many different humans and pets and non-humans, but we can't support them when our cup isn't full. And I always, you know, when I talk to clients too, you know, you're,
00:17:07
Speaker
Your family is only as healthy as you are. Your business is only as healthy as you are. You know, so we need to be able to, and this is the invitation in this stage of life, prioritize ourselves.
00:17:19
Speaker
For sure. And I think that we can link the nervous system to patients because a lot of us have less patients. I was just talking to my best friend yesterday and I was like, you know what I miss? i had an old laptop with a sticker on it and it said thick thighs, thin patients. That's me. And my patients were thin quickly as I was going, as I am still going through perimenopause, but...
00:17:45
Speaker
There's a direct link between your patience and how much you take the time to support your nervous system. And I will tell you right now, Kim, fitting those deep breaths in, I i can't say enough about deep breaths.
00:17:58
Speaker
You say you we don't have time. Well, when you go take when you go to the bathroom, you go for a quick pee, deep breath while you do it. like But when the more we fit that stuff in, My thick thighs are still there, but my patience is not as thin. So there's a direct link between our patience. And if you're someone, and if this speaks to you that you're like, yeah, my patience has been thin with all my loved ones and everything, your nervous system is inviting you to take care of it.
00:18:23
Speaker
It needs it. A million percent. And If you haven't listened to, i forget what the name of it is. We'll put it in the show notes, but we talk about this in our nervous system episode with even regards to that window of tolerance and doing the things that help support our nervous system will increase that window of tolerance, which when we have that wide window, as you said, Tanya,
00:18:48
Speaker
we have the ability to be more patient and ability to deal with any stresses that come our way. And let's face it, we're heading into the holidays. If you're listening to this in real time, there's going to be plenty of ways that you'll be able to test your patience. But yes, increasing that window of tolerance, supporting your nervous system is going to increase your stress resiliency and allow you to not be like tied tightly, like a thin wire where you're about to like Snap. out That's the smallest thing.
00:19:18
Speaker
Exactly. um you know what also I think shifting away from the nervous system yeah that is so amazing is that we're very, all of us, when we think about ourselves, even as kids and teenagers in our twenty s Part of being a human is that you can be authentic, but that's going to shift as you get older. Your identity continues to change and flourish and grow as you get older and gain experiences and gain wisdom and tap into things. And I think this magical time for us as we're aging is a time where our identity continues to expand and sometimes at like a quantum leap level. like there can be a lot of shifts in
00:20:04
Speaker
not losing who we were look at my 20 year old like body and my 20 year old energy but like expanding into who we are becoming yes I love this and I'm finding this with so many people around me too like you know First of all, look at us changing career paths, completely going into our thirty s right? Really figuring out who we are as people and what we love and what we want to do with our lives and our work.
00:20:37
Speaker
So many women do shift in their 30s and 40s, right? Into new career paths. And what I'm finding now too, and what I love is that some friends, as kids get older too, this is also that stage, or as we're going through perimenopause, we kind of come back to what lights us up, taking those dance classes, doing the art class. I have a friend who's now in a choir. I have another, ah my sister-in-law actually is now going back to dressage and and has her you know time with her horses. And so I think like going back to either what we were passionate as kids um or in you know our younger years or finding new passions and new ways to experience joy is really, really exciting.
00:21:21
Speaker
I love that. And also, I'm going to sound like a broken record for those who know me, but this is important. Our identities continue to grow beyond the rules, beyond like mom, wife, aunt, best friend, whatever it is, we are realizing again, and I say it I'm going to sound like a broken record because I don't have kids. And I like to remind my friends who do have kids, remember, you're not just mom, you're Kim as well. Don't lose that. So like what we're growing beyond the rules and expectations of what others need from us and remembering who the F we are.
00:22:02
Speaker
as human beings, as women, we and we start to really embody this and we live from like a deeper sense of self. You can still be mom and friend, but first and foremost, you are Tanya. And like, what do you want and who are you and how do you want to live?
00:22:19
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. I love it. And then it also goes to like confidence, right? Like confidence and self-ownership. Like, you know who you are.
00:22:31
Speaker
you're tan You know who you are, you know your skill set, you know your passions, you know what lights you up. or if you're sitting there thinking, I don't, this is the time where we can really dive deep and figure that out and not apologize for it.
00:22:48
Speaker
I love that. And you mentioned earlier, people pleasing, and I'm glad we kind of get to go back to this because it does tie into confidence and self ownership. And I know people pleasing is a big thing that a lot of women are working on, you know, hand is raised. That was my whole life, 100%.
00:23:06
Speaker
Mine is not, but I completely understand because I see it all the time with people I love, clients, et cetera. But I'm starting to see a so ah shift. And we start to honor, like you said, our own truth.
00:23:21
Speaker
And we don't feel like we have to apologize for that. So people-pleasing kind of falls down. like it You're not just going to, well, maybe you are and congrats, but most people overnight just don't say, I don't care any but care anymore, but like their truth and their dynamic starts to come before people pleasing and that must feel absolutely amazing.
00:23:42
Speaker
Well, absolutely. And I mean... The thing about people pleasing is that it takes away from who is ah who you are authentically, right? If you're so concerned with, or if you're somebody who changes for each person or each client or each, you know, experience in life, it's exhausting and it doesn't, and and and it's not who you authentically are. And so what I found, what ah the biggest drastic shift for me moving away from people pleasing is just
00:24:14
Speaker
Being who I authentically am is going to attract those like-minded people and those people who meet, who, you know, who, who are attracted to who I authentically am. Right. And that, and that's, what's important.
00:24:28
Speaker
A million percent. And I like to always think of this saying where there's enough sunshine for everybody. So let's just take a simple example for being holistic nutritionists. Me and you are both holistic nutritionists.
00:24:38
Speaker
We are not in competition. we So enough sun for everybody means the sun's going to shine and hit us all. By being our authentic selves, practicing how we practice, doing what we do,
00:24:52
Speaker
People are going to find you and people are going to find me based on their needs. It's, that's just the law of attraction. It's like choosing anything, right? There's an, there's so many people who do so many different things.
00:25:05
Speaker
We all have different things that attract us to that's those people. And normally it's the other person's authenticity aligns with our own, right? Well, yeah. And what I find with people pleasing, and this is what, this is where you can get into this.
00:25:23
Speaker
What's challenging is with people pleasing, you're not showing your authentic self. So you're not attracting those people that you should be attracting because you've got this mask of people pleasing on and people can't understand who you authentically. are Anyway, we should do a whole other episode on people pleasing because it's such an important topic and I love it so much.
00:25:45
Speaker
But for all of you people pleasers out there, hopefully you're you're like me and we're moving away from that and starting to like really own who we are um But yes, yeah, that's a big one. Confidence and self-ownership piece here.
00:25:59
Speaker
Right, and with that, I think comes the emotional wisdom allows us to get to this space of confidence and self-ownership because through our lives, every single day,
00:26:12
Speaker
we've gained perspective, we've gone through so many things, we've gained resiliency, and we've also gained emotional clarity, right? Like, again, if we think back to our younger years, we probably processed, understood, and gave light to emotions way less than a lot of us do now, because we didn't have the emotional wisdom that we have now, right?
00:26:37
Speaker
Yeah, no, exactly. and And I think too, like, Now, understanding how we need to take care of ourselves, like you were saying, Tanya, like the burning the candle with both ends. We're going into the holiday season now.
00:26:51
Speaker
I find it a lot easier now, too, to say no to things without guilt, no to things that don't align with me personally, you know, whether it be career wise um or no without guilt in terms of personal if I if I just need a break or.
00:27:06
Speaker
You know, I think Brene Brown said it really nicely too, for all of you who are out there as parents. I also found it really refreshing. She was saying that, and this can be as a parent or anything, when you say no, you're also giving other people permission to do the same. Love it. And leading kind of by example and love that as well. And then also creating that space for yourself, for peace and knowing what you need energetically, right? Knowing what your energy needs.
00:27:34
Speaker
Yeah, and when you crease that spot for peace and a little bit of space, you literally come to one of my absolute, not one, my absolute favorite places.
00:27:50
Speaker
word about life and defines me as a Sagittarius freedom and living in the present moment all of these things lead up to this feeling of freedom as you start to understand and let go of old cycles and Get out of that people-pleasing role, learning how to say no. It's like you just step into a feeling of freedom. Like, what was I waiting so long for? Like, this is going back to...
00:28:30
Speaker
this recalibration of self. Like we actually are free beings. We all have responsibilities and we always will, but within them, we actually have a lot of freedom to control the things that we allowed to control us the whole first portions of our lives.
00:28:51
Speaker
Yes. And I think that is a massive change in perspective too. Because as you said, Tanya, like we can get locked into this day-to-day grind. We can get locked into the to-do list. We can get locked into the who we think we should be or what we think we should look like or do. yeah But this perspective, if we can get to that stage where we start to release those old cycles, where we start to release those old like limiting beliefs or whatever you want to call them,
00:29:23
Speaker
then we can get to that place of freedom. And it is so magical. It is so magical. And I think it's important to note here that um in supporting ourselves through these stages of our lives, as we're getting older, all of these things that are shifting in us, the more we take care of the physical body,
00:29:47
Speaker
This all comes again with all the things we always talk about, supporting our body through nutrition, through the proper nutraceuticals, movement, sleep. This will heighten your experience. So we're not, you know what I mean, just talking about this kind of not attached to all of the other things, but we are talking about them in terms of the more you take care of yourself,
00:30:15
Speaker
the more you're going to experience all of these things and ultimately get to that freedom and living in the present moment, which is so, so important. um And one other thing that I love to say surrounding this is as women,
00:30:37
Speaker
This is a reawakening of like what we can say and call ourselves of the wise woman and my favorite as well. The wild woman archetype that we all have within ourselves. um Confident, clear, compassionate and unapologetically connected with ourselves. We're still caregivers. We're still, you know, mothers, sisters, friends, aunts, but we just have this new energy as we step into aging gracefully and embracing these changes.
00:31:16
Speaker
I love that, Tanya. I love that the reawakening of the wise woman and I love the wild woman too. And I think what goes along with all this too is that community piece, right? We were talking about alignment and connecting and being authentic selves and connecting with women who are aligned with us. I think this community piece is so important. and actually going back to that book, Healthy at 100, community was one of the biggest things in terms of longevity.
00:31:48
Speaker
And so finding your tribe, if you want to call it, of women that you can complain about your perimenopause symptoms to because you know we're going to do that. Because absolutely. Totally. But also, you know, reignite who you are, people who embrace who you are and figuring out at this time, you know, what your next chapter looks like, what brings you joy, all of the things.
00:32:14
Speaker
I couldn't agree more. And there's so many times that I say, and my husband's going to know this. I am so happy to be a girl. yeah And I'm like, with all of the fun that comes with it, the bleeding, the sweating, the cramping, the chaos in my brain, we just seem to have different level connections with the girls and our tribe around us. And there's nothing wrong. And the support that that brings and the clarity that brings in the freedom and the emotional wisdom, all of the things we touched upon is rooted in community.
00:32:55
Speaker
Yes, 100%. I love that. And with that, I think we can sign off for today. But I hope i hope this gives you some information some information, but also inspiration. And I think we should continue this conversation because I think we could kind of go off on the community piece. We can talk about that you know perfectionism and all those things that we talked about today. But Tanya, as always,
00:33:22
Speaker
I loved this conversation. And it's so funny. I was thinking the middle of the conversation, I'm like, I wish that we could hear what our listeners have to say in these moments, because I feel like this is such a big conversation. And I want to hear all your inputs too. Anyways, um have a wonderful week, everyone.
00:33:39
Speaker
