Peri-Menopause: No More Bullsh*t

Kim Barnard @sacred.womban and I get together for a great chat about Perimenopause!

I’m in perimenopause right now (at the time of recording) and share my experience and how it can be a time of accelerated growth and change to align with our deeper truth.

  • Saying NO with no attachments
  • The ability to respond rather than react
  • The first signs of perimenopause – the grit! an adjustment of values, and a need for our outer world to align with those.
  • What is ‘sacred rage’?
  • Dismantling the patriarchy and owning our part
  • Ways to prepare and work WITH for perimenopause – emotionally / spiritually
  • Ways to prepare for perimenopause – physically – Anthony William ‘Cleanse To Heal’ book for the liver cleanse.
