9: Masculine vs. Feminine Energy: The Way You’ve Been Living Fuels Midlife Symptoms

Some women think peri-menopause symptoms are purely a physical problem. They're wrong.

Of course, many symptoms manifest as physical ones. But what if the physical symptoms are actually fuelled by something deeper…like a hidden societal norm that keeps many women living in overdrive?

In this episode, we get into this hidden conditioning. We're talking about the concept of masculine and feminine energies. It's not a new concept, but no one has linked it to menopause symptoms. That’s exactly what we do in this episode.

These energies are not about gender, but about the two forces we all carry within us. The problem is, when they are out of balance, we feel stressed, and eventually, physical symptoms.

Here’s the problem: Western culture celebrates the masculine — the doing, the achieving, the logic, the linear — and devalues the feminine — the being, the feeling, the creating, the cyclical. After decades of running on masculine overdrive, midlife and menopause hit like a wall.

We’ll show you how the imbalance between these energies is at the root of so many midlife struggles, and how reclaiming your feminine side can actually ease symptoms, restore balance, and reignite your fire.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• What masculine and feminine energies really are
• How our culture rewards masculine traits and shames the feminine
• Why this imbalance shows up so strongly in midlife and menopause
• What your body is really craving

This episode is for you if:

• You’re exhausted from always “doing”, and never have time to just be
• Menopause symptoms are wearing you down, and you’re searching for a deeper why
• You’re ready to stop following society’s rules and start listening to your own body and energy
