Today is World Menopause Day, Sunday 18 October. And we want to say something clearly: menopause is not a medical problem to be managed. It's a human experience that deserves to be honoured.

To every woman who has ever been told she's “hormonal,” “difficult,” or “a bit much,” you are not broken. You are not fading. You are hot, foggy, and absolutely fabulous.

From all of us at the Hot, Foggy & Fabulous team. Thank you for trusting us to be part of your chapter.

✨ “𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬.”

I remember this day clearly.
I was out to lunch, smiling, chatting and keeping it all together.
But on the inside, I was screaming those words.
From the outside, everything probably looked fine.
But I felt stuck, disconnected from myself and knew something had to change.
The problem was I didn’t know what.

𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬.

I had to learn to understand myself, what my mind was doing, what I was telling myself, how I was feeling and what I actually needed.
I had to get clear on what mattered to me and what I wanted my life to look and feel like.
That understanding changed everything.
And it’s a big part of why I do this work now.

𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝.

Maybe your life looks fine from the outside too.
You’re still showing up.
Still getting things done.
Still holding everything together.
But inside, you know:

𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞.

You don’t have to have all the answers yet.
And you don’t have to wait years to begin.

💚 This Wednesday, I’m sharing the 4-step process that helped me understand my thoughts, recognise what was keeping me stuck and start creating change.

𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮?

Maybe life looks good on paper, but something still feels like it's missing.
Maybe you’re busy but not fulfilled.
Maybe what used to motivate you doesn’t anymore.
Maybe you keep thinking, “𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲…”

Or maybe the hardest question has become:

“𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭?”

Maybe you haven’t lost your motivation.

Maybe 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗱.

Swipe through the 5 signs and tell me which one feels most familiar right now.

1, 2, 3, 4 or 5?

Save this to come back to and tag a woman who might need this reminder today.

You don’t need to have your whole life figured out to know you want something to feel different.

I know, because I used to want the 𝐡𝐨𝐰 first.

I wanted certainty. I’m naturally risk-averse, so before making a change I wanted to know exactly how it was going to work, what the steps were and where it would lead.

Basically, I wanted it all figured out before I started. 😆

What I’ve learnt is that change doesn’t start with the how.

𝐈𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠.

Noticing what you want 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟.

For me, it was 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦.

Freedom to spend more time with the people I love.
Freedom to travel.
Freedom to enjoy snow ❄ life with our son.
Freedom to have more 𝑭𝑼𝑵.
Freedom to have more choice over how I spent my time.

Once I got clear on that, I could start turning what I was learning through coaching into action.

I didn't have the full picture.

I just knew what I wanted more of.

And that gave me somewhere to start.

We can get so focused on HOW will I do this - that we forget to ask the question that comes first:

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰?

So here’s my Magnetic Monday question for you:

𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝟏𝟐 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐢𝐭 𝐛𝐞?

Don't worry about the how yet.

𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞.💚

𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒃𝒆 𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒇𝒖𝒍 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆.

You can love your family, appreciate what you have, be successful at work and still quietly wonder:

“𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁?”

That feeling doesn’t necessarily mean anything is wrong.

Sometimes it means you’ve grown.

The roles, routines or expectations that once fitted you may not fit quite the same way anymore.

And yet, when you’ve spent years being busy, responsible and looking after everyone else, it can be hard to stop long enough to ask:

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰?

Over the next few weeks, I’m going to be talking more about why so many women reach this point in midlife, why we can feel stuck even when life looks good from the outside, and what helps us move forward.

For today, I’m curious:

𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬 “𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐭?” 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝? 🤔👇

💛 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗢𝗞, 𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴?

As someone who was not OK many years ago, saying that out loud felt like admitting weakness.

I convinced myself to “soldier on,” toughen up and tell myself I would get through it - And I did.

But at what cost? Years of my time, energy and emotional wellbeing.

What might have changed if I had felt able to say, “𝗡𝗼, 𝗜’𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗢𝗞.”?

Recently, I attended @monashcouncil
Women’s event guest speaker Dr Queenie Wu described the invisible load many women carry as “𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒅𝒈𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌.”

It’s running a business or career while also running the family, organising appointments, remembering birthdays and gifts, coordinating pick-up times, activities and so on.

It’s the work no one sees, so often isn’t recognised or counted. The pressure continues to build in the body to try to cope with it all.

💬 Dr Queenie shared two powerful reminders:
“𝘾𝙤𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙖𝙢𝙚 𝙖𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 .. it 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙢𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣’𝙩 𝙙𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙙 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙚𝙩.”

“𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙗𝙡𝙚𝙢. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙗𝙡𝙚𝙢 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮.”

She offered 3 tools
1️⃣ 𝗡𝗔𝗠𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗟𝗢𝗔𝗗 𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗟𝗢𝗨𝗗 so it can be acknowledged and shared.

2️⃣ 𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗠𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 when you don’t need to organise, remember, explain to anyone else.

3️⃣ 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗪𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗡, those who understand you, and your week.

My own experience is deeply connected to the work I do today. As a Mindset Coach, I support women who appear to be coping but underneath, feel overwhelmed, mentally overloaded or disconnected from themselves.

Sometimes the first step towards change is having a safe space to say
“𝗔𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆, 𝗜’𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗢𝗞.”

Today, take a moment to really notice the people around you. Don’t just ask the question. Pause, observe and listen to what might be sitting behind their answer.

And if you’re carrying more than anyone realises, or this post has named something for the first time, you’re welcome to message me. by @neridaguerin
