Loss can reorder every corner of a life, but it can also reveal how much power we have in the small, daily choices. I share where I’m at—honoring my mom, easing back into work, and choosing structure that makes my days feel lighter and more intentional. The throughline is simple: clear systems, gentle movement, and thoughtful care can turn a scattered season into one that feels grounded and hopeful.
We dig into perimenopause brain fog with honesty and specifics. I talk about what the estrogen drop can do to memory, focus, and mood, and the practical tools that make a difference: an upcoming HRT evaluation, a no-multitasking rule, and a planner setup that covers daily life, content, health, and learning. I also share easy memory techniques and the home reset that keeps my brain calm—organizing the pantry, closet, and routines so decisions are fewer and follow-through is easier.
On the body side, I break down my 15-minute morning stretch habit using the Bend app and why mobility is the most underrated energy tool. Think dynamic moves that reduce stiffness, prevent training injuries, and set a steady tone for the day. Then we lighten things up with two finds I’m loving: COOLA Firming Face Oil SPF 30 for nourishing sun care and the Olaplex Weightless Nourishing Mask for smooth, bouncy hair. Finally, I walk through how I’m upgrading my personal image with intention—learning from Bobbi Brown, Debrett’s, The Confidence Code, How the World Sees You, and Presence—so how I feel and how I show up match.
If this resonated, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs a little clarity and momentum, and leave a review so more women can find these conversations. What’s one small system you’re starting this week?
