Your days are long, your nights are sleepless, and the mood swings are as unpredictable as a tornado. Yes, we're talking about menopause. But don't worry; it's not all bad! In fact, there are many ways to find purpose in your life during this transitional time. Here are five of our favourites:

1) Embrace your new identity

No matter what you’ve been through in life, it is never too late to find purpose. Embrace your new identity and know that you are capable of great things. Right now, take a moment to close your eyes and think about how you feel. Remember this feeling because it is the beginning of something special.

There are endless possibilities waiting for you if you just open your heart and mind to them. So don't be afraid to embrace change - it might just be the best thing that's ever happened to you. How do you feel right now?

Hopefully, you feel inspired and ready to take on the world with a new perspective. Never give up on yourself – there’s always hope for a better tomorrow.

2) Find a new passion

It is never too late to find a new passion or hobby. You are never too old to learn something new or to better yourself in some way. There are always opportunities out there for you to explore and grow. So, go out and find your new passion today! Who knows what you might discover about yourself along the way.

Embrace your curiosity and don't be afraid to try something new. It could be the start of a beautiful journey. So, what are you waiting for? Get out there and explore until you find something that lights your fire!

3) Connect with other women

Though we’re all capable of making our own luck, it certainly doesn’t hurt to have a supportive and extended network in your life. Creating new relationships can have its own challenges, but the first step is always the hardest. Once you get out there and start meeting new women, you’ll quickly find that the process becomes much easier and more enjoyable.

So go forth and network! Connecting and talking with other women going through the menopausal phase in their lives will give you, and them the support that lifts you. So don't be afraid to reach out and connect with other women today!

4) Be creative

It’s never too late to start living a life that is in alignment with your purpose. And it is always worth the effort to find what brings you fulfillment. The best way to discover your purpose is to be creative and explore all the options available to you. Sometimes, your purpose will be something you’ve always been interested in. Other times, it will be something you never would have thought of on your own. Either way, don’t give up until you find what makes you feel alive and excited about life. Once you find your purpose, go out and make a difference in the world!

By being creative, we are pushed to examine different aspects of our lives that we might not have looked at before. We start to view the world from a new perspective and see opportunities where we previously saw none. It is through this creativity that we discover our purpose in life. So if you haven’t found your purpose yet, don’t give up. Be creative in your search and you will eventually find what you are looking for.

5) Don't be afraid to change course

Change is hard, but it is worth it. Trust yourself and don't be afraid to change your course when you need to. The world is full of opportunities, so relax and trust that you will find your way.

In life, we are always moving forward. Sometimes it might not feel like it and we may get stuck in a rut, but trust that things will work out the way they're supposed to. Whatever you do, don't be afraid to change course if something isn't working out for you. Relax and trust that everything will happen as it should.

Conclusion

You are not your Menopause; you are so much more. Every woman goes through menopause, and many feel lost during this time. It is important to remember that this is just a phase in your life. As the years go by, you will find that what was once important simply fades away and is replaced with things of greater meaning. You have the power to create your own journey, don't let anyone tell you different. Society may try to dictate how you should act or feel but at the end of the day it's up to you to be true to yourself. So, relax and trust that everything happens for a reason even if you can't see it right now.

You can find purpose from Menopause to well Beyond. Just relax and trust that everything will work out in the end.
