S2 E1 Pressing Play on the Invisible Pause

## Welcome back to The Pressing Play Podcast Season Two 🎧 We’re back, my loves. And Season Two feels different. This season, I want us to go deeper. I’ll be bringing you extraordinary guests, honest conversations, science, tapping, perimenopause and plenty of Press Play energy all with one purpose: helping more women stop putting themselves on pause. In this first episode back, I’m talking about something that has been on my mind all summer: **The Invisible Pause.** It’s that place you can find yourself in during perimenopause where, from the outside, life is still happening. You’re working. Parenting. Showing up. Getting things done. But underneath? You’re exhausted. You’re snapping over things that never used to bother you. You’re crying in the car and then putting your sunglasses on and carrying on. You walk into a room and forget why you’re there. Your confidence has taken a knock. You start questioning yourself. And sometimes, almost without noticing it, you begin making yourself smaller. You stop going for things. You think, *Should I even bother?* **That’s The Invisible Pause.** In this episode, I’m exploring why I believe perimenopause can turn the volume up on the beliefs, patterns and stories we’ve been carrying for years, including what we’ve been taught about women, ageing, worth and what this chapter of life is supposed to look like. We’re experiencing it inside a culture that has spent generations telling women what ageing should mean. And I want us to challenge that. I also share why HRT can be life-changing , it has been for me, but why supporting our minds, beliefs and nervous systems matters too. ### Also in this episode… I’m sharing a little of what happened at Latitude Festival this summer (the energy was OFF THE SCALE), plus a huge pinch-me moment: I’ll be taking to the stage at **Pause Live in London on 10th October**, bringing the Healing Power of Tapping to the UK’s largest women’s health event. And I have **two pairs of Pause Live tickets to give away!** Head over to my Instagram to find the competition and enter: **Instagram:** @jofiddy\_ ### Feeling your own Invisible Pause? If something in this episode made you think, *Oh God, that’s me*, I’m opening up my **90-minute 1:1 perimenopause coaching sessions**. Bring me the one thing that’s keeping you awake, the decision you keep circling, the anger, overwhelm or loss of confidence you can’t seem to shift. Together, we’ll calm the noise, explore what’s really running underneath and start moving you from **The Invisible Pause → Pressing Play.** **Work with me:** jofiddy.com/perimenopausecoaching Remember, my love: **You are not declining.
