In this episode of Thrive Through the Fire, we’re having an honest—and sometimes funny—conversation about perimenopause, menopause, hormones, stress, sleep, mood changes, and everything in between.

We’ll talk about recognizing changes in your body without shame, knowing when it’s time to seek medical support, and remembering that taking care of yourself isn’t selfish—it’s wise.

Most importantly, we’ll remind ourselves that God is with us in every season, including the ones where our hormones seem to have a mind of their own!

In this episode:

Hormonal changes and mood swings

Sleep, stress, and exhaustion

Why you shouldn’t dismiss your symptoms

Giving yourself permission to ask for help

Navigating this season with faith, humor, and grace

You are not crazy. You are not alone. And you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself.

The Fire, the Faith, and the Bigger Story

What does it mean to thrive through the fire? Inspired by the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, I share how God carried me through stage 3 cancer and how that same faith applies to motherhood, marriage, getting older, and everyday struggles. You don't have to avoid the fire to thrive. You just have to remember you're not walking through it alone.

Your story matters, and sharing it might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.

Scripture: Daniel 3:16–27, Isaiah 43:2, Ecclesiastes 4:9–12
