Life is hard enough when you reach the sandwich years. On top of that, your body is changing, your health issues are changing. And doctors aren’t listening. It’s better for the women coming up, but not by much.
Speak your experience and your needs until someone listens, you deserve it.

Five years is all the time and none of the time. Losing my parents added to the confusion of figuring out who I am after hormones. There is a lot going on at this time of life, working with my coaches helped me find steady ground when I was very unsteady. Which is why I work with women like me, women who want to figure out who they are with kids gone, parents aging or gone, hormones assuredly gone (or kicking up a storm on the way out). Reach out for a 30 minute chat to see if coaching is for you.

Hey, you, yeah . . . you, time to cry! But . . . I don't really need to. I don't care.

But the body does

Some days you just feel like the universe has given you a gift.
Today was the first on in ages. And it was a doozy. I hope your day was equally magical.

With a miracle cherry on top

It's only taken me . . . months, years . . . but Coach-Tara.com is live again. It has joined me in the focus on women in menopause dealing with all the life changes that come with that.
I hope you'll take a look, let me know if there are any glaring errors (it's a work in progress), and share it with anyone you think might need some companionship on their journey to figuring it all out.
Thank you.

Accidentally on time for Thoughtful Thursday, sometimes ADHD works well.

Sometimes you go for a 3 mile hike, get really sweaty, open the moon roof and the passenger side window to cool off on the drive home, and you cry.

Thoughtful Thursday took a hit with dental issues, doctors appointments - so many doctors appointments, car issues (new tires, then also brakes), and some chair massage jobs - the travel pushes all other things out of my brain.
Today I woke up with no motivation and BAM Thoughtful Thursday is here.
If you are a woman of a certain age and are dealing with things like this, I have a couple of openings in my coaching schedule and I would love to chat.

Life without hormones

Life is hard. And you can handle more than you think. But for when you just can't even . . .

When reality is too hard

Thoughtful Thursday reading for you.
It's not Thursday? Whaaaaaaaaaaat?
Yeah, I did a six mile hike yesterday and then jumped in the shower to get to work. And then I was braindead. So here we are.
Let me know what you're angry about that may or may not be rational or reasonable.

I don't need them, but . . .

Red this.
Now read it again.
And again.
Until you have fully integrated it in your thought process.
Rest is necessary, it’s how we recharge and recover.
You got nothing done today? Awesome! You are worthy of such a day.
