    La Pause Menopause Episode 25 - Being too much & cutting the ties with outdated beliefs

    Ep. 25 – Too Much? Or Just Enough? Releasing the Old You In this empowering episode of La Pause Menopause, we dive deep into one of the most common limiting beliefs many women carry into midlife: the idea that we are “too much”. Too loud. Too opinionated. Too emotional. Too ambitious. It’s time to flip that narrative. We explore how to break free from these outdated labels, cut the energetic ties to the versions of ourselves that no longer serve us, and step into the next chapter with confidence, authenticity, and unapologetic joy. ✨ In this episode, we talk about: Where the “too much” story comes from How to recognise when you’re holding onto old identities Simple ways to let go and rewrite your self-image Why menopause can be your most powerful season yet If you’re ready to stop shrinking yourself and start embracing your full, vibrant presence, this conversation is for you. 🎧 Listen now and join the movement of women redefining midlife on their own terms.

    🎙️ Episode 23 – Out of Chaos Comes Magic Let’s be real: menopause isn’t all herbal teas and moon rituals. Sometimes it’s just you, standing in the kitchen at 3 a.m., sweating through your pajamas and wondering if you’ve actually lost your mind—or just your car keys again. In this episode of La Pause Menopause, we take a deep breath (and maybe a chilled glass of wine) to explore what happens when life feels like a hot mess—literally. There’s chaos, yes. But there’s also power, perspective, and the kind of hard-won wisdom you don’t get from a self-help book. Is there magic in the madness? We're still figuring that out. But if magic looks like shedding old roles, speaking your truth, and finally not giving a damn what anyone thinks… then we might just be onto something. Tune in. Let’s find the magic together—with a wink, a sigh, and maybe a fan. Please join us on this menopause journey to empower & renew Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

    🎙️ La Pause Menopause – Episode 20: Wellness & Authenticity – Coming Home to Yourself During Menopause Welcome to Episode 20 of La Pause Menopause, the podcast that embraces every chapter of a woman’s life with honesty, heart, and a touch of humor. Today, we’re diving into menopause wellness—but not just in the physical sense. We’re also exploring what it means to be true to yourself during this powerful phase of change. 💬 Menopause isn’t an ending—it’s a transformation. A time when the body may shift, but the soul has a chance to breathe deeper. It’s often a period of questioning—but also of awakening. How do we care for ourselves with compassion? How do we listen to our needs without guilt? And how do we reconnect with who we truly are, beyond the roles we’ve played for others? In this episode, we’ll explore: The pillars of wellness during menopause—body, mind, and spirit Why this stage of life can be a unique opportunity for personal realignment Practical tips for nurturing authenticity in your daily life And inspiring stories from women who found their voice right alongside their hot flashes ✨ Because feeling well isn’t just about your hormones—it’s about feeling whole. And what if menopause became your invitation to come home to yourself? So take a deep breath, pour yourself a cup of tea (or a glass of wine—we don’t judge), and settle in for your well-deserved pause.
