She smelled like lavender and emotional vulnerability. Her socks had embroidered cats. Her fridge had three kinds of cheese and one very expired yogurt. She was perfect. One meow, a tail wrap around her ankle, and a dramatic flop onto my side — voilà! I had secured a human.
"I knew you'd come back," she whispered. Come… back? Darling, I've never been here before in my entire nine-lifed existence. And yet… the place felt familiar. Like I'd napped here in a former life. Or in a dream. Or during a tuna-induced hallucination.

We like to believe that women — mothers especially — are wired to protect. That somewhere deep inside us there's a primal code that says no one touches my child.
And yet, time after time, we see women who do know, or at least sense, and still stay quiet. They convince themselves it's not happening. They hope it will stop. They don't want to believe the man they chose could be capable of it. They fear losing their home, their reputation, their sense of control.
Read MoreThere I stood, ankle-deep in products I'd bought in moments of weakness, usually after too much wine and a late-night scroll through Facebook. "This one reverses sun damage." "This one plumps." "This one tightens, lifts, brightens, hydrates, and whispers kind things to your pores." All promises. All lies.
As I bent to pick them up, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. Always a gamble. I studied the terrain like David Attenborough encountering a well-loved habitat under threat.
My boobs? One slightly higher than the other — the unrequested souvenir from breast cancer surgery. Not dramatic enough to fix, but just different enough to look like they're in an argument.

"We don't visit nature — we are nature. And nothing in nature keeps growing forever and stays healthy. Change is how we stay alive." Menopause, like every transition, is not something to endure but something to be initiated through. In honouring the body's intelligence, in listening to the dark goddess within, we do not lose ourselves — we return to the woman we were meant to become.
