Why Your 40s Are Your New Power Decade: Unveiling the Wisdom of Maga and Moon Cycles with Amanda Trieger
10/15/23 • 57 min
Ever wondered about the mental or emotional transformation women undergo during perimenopause and into menopause? Well this episode is your roadmap to understanding it and why this decade could be your most empowering yet! Join Sarah as she talks with Amanda Trieger, a naturopath and menstrual health advocate with two decades of experience. Together, they delve into the power of living cyclically, the concept of Maga, and how honouring our rites of passage can create a powerful ripple effect in our lives and society.
Amanda emphasizes the importance of tracking your cycles—be it lunar or menstrual—as a cornerstone for creating change. It's like having a GPS for your body, offering real-time updates on your hormonal landscape. The conversation also challenges societal norms that equate menopause with old age, redefining it as a powerful transition rather than a decline.
The episode introduces Maga, a transformative phase in a woman's life that starts around age 40. Amanda describes it as a time to harvest life experiences and offer them back to the community. It's your autumn season, a time to slow down, reflect, and prepare for the next chapter. The episode also delves into the importance of creating rituals to honor life transitions like menopause, framing it as a rite of passage or a graduation ceremony for your hormones. Finally, the conversation touches on why the current work culture isn't designed for cyclical beings like women and how recognizing menstrual health as a vital sign can be revolutionary.
Tune in to move from bewilderment to empowerment, and gain actionable insights and a deeper understanding of your body.
