The Hidden Connection: Childhood & Menopause with Lavinia Brown
Manage episode 444860788 series 3607487
Could childhood experiences shape our emotions during menopause? In this episode of Owning Your Menopause, I sit down with psychodynamic coach Lavinia Brown to explore the deep connection between unresolved childhood traumas and the emotional rollercoaster that many women face during perimenopause.
Lavinia opens up about her own journey, from battling eating disorders to finding healing through inner child work. We explore the idea of "small t trauma"—the subtle yet significant emotional wounds we carry from childhood—and how these unresolved issues can resurface during menopause, leading to feelings of anger, anxiety, or confusion.
Lavinia shares insights on tracking your cycle, recognising emotional patterns, and understanding how our children can mirror unresolved emotions. We also discuss how modern parenting dynamics have evolved, with children today being more vocal and emotionally aware than previous generations.
