Feeling Overwhelmed in Menopause? This 12-Minute Reset Could Help
Let’s be honest: most women don’t leave work because of menopause itself.
They leave because they’re exhausted.
Overwhelmed.
Trying to hold it all together without the support they need.
And right now, from January into February, that pressure often reaches its peak.
Dark mornings.
Heavy workloads.
The “new year, new you” noise, layered on top of hormonal shifts, sleep disruption, mood swings, or anxiety.
At Hello Mimi, we see this all the time. It’s not a lack of resilience. It’s a nervous system trying to operate in survival mode, day after day with zero margin for error.
This Week on the Real, Honest, Messy Menopause Podcast
We created something small but powerful to help.
A 12-minute nervous system reset designed to help you exhale, even in the middle of your workday.
EP 4: Feeling Overwhelmed in Menopause? Try This 12-Minute Reset
This episode isn’t meditation.
It’s not breathwork.
It’s not about fixing yourself.
It’s about interrupting the cycle of pressure and helping your body feel safe again.

Why It Matters
You might be powering through showing up to work, hitting deadlines, smiling in meetings.
But underneath?
You’re wired but tired.
Your brain feels foggy.
Your emotions are close to the surface.
Your body feels tense, like it’s always bracing for something.
This episode offers a way to reset, gently, without needing to disappear into a wellness retreat or overhaul your routine.
💛 You can listen to it on your lunch break.
💛 In the car.
💛 Or hiding in the loo between meetings (we’ve been there).
Because real menopause support meets you where you are and this short episode is our way of doing just that.
From the Founders
“This is the kind of support I wish had existed when I was burning out quietly behind a capable exterior. Not another solution to implement, just a moment to soften.”
— Lesley, Co-Founder of Hello Mimi
