Send us a text

Are you in your 40s or 50s thinking, “I don’t feel like myself anymore”?
You’re not imagining it — and you’re definitely not alone.

In this deeply comforting and empowering episode, Emma Bennett (Menopause Coach, Holistic Nutritionist, and founder of The Empowerful Club) breaks down why identity loss is so common in perimenopause, why your emotions feel all over the place, and how to gently reconnect with your authentic self again — without pressure, perfectionism, or adding more to your already full plate.

We dive into:

💛 Why you suddenly feel like a stranger to yourself
💛 The emotional whiplash (rage → tears → numbness)
💛 How hormones, exhaustion, and midlife load affect your sense of self
💛 Tiny steps to rebuild confidence, energy, and joy
💛 How to reconnect with the parts of you that feel “lost”
💛 The power of micro-joy and gentle identity rebuilding

If you’re ready to feel more like you again — grounded, clear, energised, and connected — this episode will meet you exactly where you are.
