Are you stuck saying “I’m hanging in there” or “This project is killing me”? What if your language is actually shaping your energy, productivity, and well-being? In this highlight from #MenopauseMastery, Dr. Brandy Cummings shares a simple yet powerful tool: reframe your words to focus on what you want instead of what you don’t want.
