The Menopause Method

Gains Over Gaps: A New Approach to Menopause

Cam Allen Episode 2

In this episode of The Menopause Method, we’re flipping the menopause narrative—because what you think about this phase shapes how you experience it.

I’m breaking down mindset shifts that help you stop seeing menopause as a loss and start recognizing it as a powerful transition. We’re talking about reframing challenges as opportunities, ditching limiting beliefs, and realizing that your thoughts don’t define you (unless you let them).

When you focus on gains instead of gaps, you stay motivated, celebrate progress, and actually enjoy the process. And don’t worry—I’ve got plenty of practical strategies coming your way to help you support your body through this phase.

Let’s do this!

You'll hear:

  1. Embrace the Why: Shift from "Why is this happening to me?" to "Why is this happening for me?" Whether it's our relationship with food, fitness, or people, we're flipping the script on the menopause narrative.
  2. Celebrate the Wins: It's high time we focus on the gains rather than the gaps. We're learning to spotlight those small victories that propel us toward our goals.
  3. Challenge Those Thoughts: Discover how understanding that you are the thinker, not your thoughts, can free you from self-imposed limitations.
