Menopause takes many women by surprise. Society is focused on the illusion of perpetual youth. But when menopause hits, hormones change, our bodies change and possibly the way society sees us changes as well.
Lisa Triggs candidly discusses her downward spiral into depression and weight gain during her menopause years, exacerbated by life events that caused extreme stress. She realized that she needed to change the narrative.
Self-love, according to Lisa, is essential during menopause. Many women find themselves lost, caring for others while neglecting their own needs. Lisa emphasizes that it is crucial to reconnect with our inner selves, to love ourselves regardless of our physical changes. This realization was pivotal for her and can be for many others as well.
Through her journey, Lisa learned three invaluable lessons that she wishes to share: First, prioritize self-love. Second, practice patience with yourself, as healing is a process. Lastly, focus on finding joy in your life, as it can be a powerful catalyst for change.
