213 The Trauma of Emotional Invalidation
Update: 2026-03-06
Description
In this episode we explore what it's like when your 'felt sense' isn't believed especially in childhood and how this impacts our health and our menopause. We look at how subtle, repeated invalidation shapes the quality of our attachments, why women often become the emotional regulators of their families, how functional freeze develops, and why menopause can feel like all of this unravels at once. We also examine the difference between attunement and optimisation — and why healing begins with being met, not fixed.
It's a good one for anyone who feels there's more to menopause than 'just' hormones.
