The Hidden Struggles of Women Over 35 — And How You Can Reclaim Your Power

Are you noticing that something feels different lately? Maybe you’re more tired than usual, emotionally unsettled, or not as mentally sharp. If you’re over 35 and not quite feeling like yourself, you’re not alone. You could be entering perimenopause—a natural, yet often misunderstood, stage of life that can last up to ten years for some women. 

Women today are living decades longer than they did 100 years ago, yet we’re still facing disproportionately high rates of illness in later life compared to men. Why? The sharp decline in hormones during perimenopause and menopause—oestrogen, progesterone, and testosterone—plays a vital role in nearly every system of the body. From cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health to brain function and emotional regulation, the loss of these hormones affects every organ and system. These changes can sneak up on you and are often misunderstood or dismissed. But this stage of life deserves your attention, care, and support—not to be ignored.

Are You Missing the Subtle Signs? 

You might be experiencing scattered focus, poor sleep, sudden anxiety, or emotional distance from yourself and others. Does this sound familiar? These are common early signs of perimenopause and hormonal shifts, but they rarely come with clear warnings. You might have been telling yourself it’s just stress or getting older—but your body is actually inviting you to slow down, listen, and respond accordingly. 

Do You Feel Like Your Energy Has Disappeared?

If you’re exhausted or foggy, you don’t have to accept that as your new normal. With the right support, you can reclaim your natural energy, mental clarity, and vitality. Whether through lifestyle adjustments, emotional healing, holistic tools, or hormone replacement therapy (HRT)—of which the cancer-causing concerns reported two decades ago have since been widely debunked—you can feel like you again, only wiser, stronger, and more connected. Your body is resilient, and with the right care, you don’t just survive these changes—you can thrive through them. 

It’s Not Your Fault

Are you struggling more than you expected? Some women experience physical illness, mental health challenges, or intense emotional distress during perimenopause and menopause. Some are hit much worse than others and can feel physically and mentally unwell. Suicide rates are reported as skyrocketing; careers are ending abruptly, marriages are breaking down, and far too many symptoms of menopause and perimenopause are misdiagnosed and mistreated. Often, women are prescribed statins, antidepressants, sleeping tablets, or simply told to eat less and exercise more. This is frustrating—and it’s not your fault. Holistic tools and, for many, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can make a profound difference. 

Do You Feel Unsupported or Brushed Off?

Many women feel ashamed, confused, or ignored when they bring their concerns to GPs or gynaecologists. Have you been dismissed or told it’s “just ageing”? This isolation is unnecessary and unfair. Shame, lack of information, or being brushed off can leave you feeling powerless. You deserve to be heard, supported, and empowered as you navigate this transformation. 

Your 40s don’t have to be a time of decline or mystery. This can be your most powerful time to deepen your self-awareness, awaken your potential, and realign with your true essence. The shifts you’re experiencing are real, but they don’t have to be overwhelming.
