Eps 428: Why Women Feel So Alone in Perimenopause (Even When They’re Not Alone)

Have you ever felt lonely, even when you’re surrounded by people?

Not because you’re physically alone, but because no one truly understands what you’re carrying.

In this episode, we explore one of the most overlooked challenges women face in midlife: loneliness.

We unpack why loneliness peaks during our 40s and 50s, the hidden weight of invisible labor, and why feeling understood may be one of the most important parts of healing.

If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t recognize myself anymore,” or “I thought it was just me,” this conversation is for you.
