Imposter Syndrome and Perimenopause

Something that is often underplayed in menopause is the identity shift that can accompany us. The loss of a way we used to think or be able to cope with things. The worries about whether we can still add value. In our 40s we are often navigating bigger careers and businesses and responsibilities than ever before. Changes in how we feel, in our energy levels, in how we can remember things can deeply impact our confidence and clarity and feeling of self.

  • Unpack self doubt or “imposter syndrome”

  • Give you 4 questions to ask EVERY time you feel like a fraud

  • Look at how what might be happening hormonally can lay over this
