You’re Not Angry. Your Old Identity Is Breaking in Midlife
About this episode
This episode reframes anger experienced during menopause as an identity rupture, exploring the shift into self-led adulthood for women over 40.
Many women experience anger, irritability, or emotional volatility during menopause and assume something is wrong with them. This episode reframes that anger as an identity rupture, not a mood problem. It explores how the version of you that survived by being dependable, quiet, and self-sacrificing can no longer carry you forward. This conversation helps women understand who they’ve been, why that identity is cracking now, and how menopause initiates a necessary shift into self-led adulthood.
