In this episode, I’m exploring what really happens when your body - and your hormones - decide they’re done with people-pleasing. For many women, midlife brings a strange mix of liberation and guilt. The part of us that’s spent decades smoothing things over and keeping the peace starts to feel exhausted, while another part begins whispering, “I can’t keep living like this.”

We’ll talk about the hormonal shifts that drive this change, from fluctuating oestrogen and progesterone levels, to the role of testosterone - and how these biochemical transitions collide with your attachment style.

I’ll break down the four adult attachment patterns and explain why anxious, avoidant, or people pleasing tendencies can create havoc in perimenopause, as the body pushes you toward truth and integrity.
