Right ladies, time to sit up, fix your bra, pull your knickers out of your arse and lets rethink your whole life.
If you stopped doing it all tomorrow… what would actually fall apart — and what would finally get shared?
I used to think I was just moody. Snappy witch. Massively irritable cow bag. A bit… much.
But I’ve started to realise something. I’m not moody. Menopause is not just hormones doing the cha-cha. It’s a pattern interruption. It’s your body looking at decades of over-functioning and saying:
“Yeah… mission fricken aborted because listen bitches, we’re not doing that anymore.”
And here’s the part people don’t say out loud:
You’re not just tired. You’re done carrying what was never evenly distributed in the first place. So when you ask that question — what would fall apart? — what you’re really asking is:
What have I been over-managing?
What systems only work because I exhaust myself?
Who has been benefiting from me being the glue?
And the second half? Whew, chile…
What would finally get shared?
What conversations have I delayed because it was easier to just do it myself?
What boundaries has my body now forced me to draw?
This is where most people flinch. Because things might wobble, and I mean really fucking wobble…….. But let me tell you something with my whole chest:
If it falls apart the moment you step back, it was never stable — it was being propped up by you.
And menopause?
She’s not here to ruin your life. She’s here to renegotiate your role in it. So don’t just ask the question like a whisper. Ask it like a reckoning:
“If I stop being everything for everyone… who finally learns to show up?”
Now… talk to me. Where in your life do you already know you’ve been doing too much?
