SE5: EP 23 Self-Compassion and Menopause

Thriving Thru Menopause

How can self-compassion helps us cope with menopause, life changes and learning to thrive rather than just survive?

Perimenopause and menopause are natural transitions but bring about changes in our bodies that sometimes conflict with society's view of how we should look. Symptoms like anxiety, low libido, brain fog and mood swings can lead us to be critical and even hateful towards ourselves. Especially if they create issues at work or in our closest relationships.

Often there is a lack of compassionate emotional and physical support for women and people experiencing this transition from the medical community and culture at large.

Join Clarissa today for her conversation with Dr Nicola Harper, doctor, coach and teacher of Self-compassion. She loves helping amazing women to thrive and she regularly speaks about Compassionate Leadership.

In this conversation, we discuss why:

Self-Compassion is a skill set, not an emotion.

How you can train your inner critical voice to be an honest, supportive best friend, instead of dragging you down.

Learning to manage yourself and your energy as a valuable resource, will transform your experience of life.
