The Spiritual Silence Secret Every Woman in Midlife Needs

On the way to The National Menopause Show!

Hey Friend,

Here’s a challenge for you…

👉 Go sit in silence for 8 minutes.

No magic in the number 8—but it’s long enough to feel a little uncomfortable. Longer than 5. Just sit and tell God you’re there to receive. No agenda. No noise. Just openness to Him and what He wants to tell you.

Silence is scary.Being off a phone, computer, TV, or book is hard.Closing your mouth and opening your ears can feel deafening—especially for a woman who is used to always being needed.

But oh sister, this kind of silence with Jesus will change your intimacy with Him.

We talk about this in my latest episode of StRest with my spiritual director, JR Mahon.

After a situation with a rock tumbler, tea kettle, and a tearful half-hour in the Verizon store, we dive into why so many women in midlife feel guilt and shame about “not doing enough” spiritually. We explore how performative faith crowds out intimacy with God, and why stillness and silence are the gateway back.

JR shares how healthy boundaries protect love and unpacks Galatians 6 as a blueprint for real community—bearing one another’s burdens while learning to carry your own.

You’ll leave this episode with:

✔️ Insight into codependency

✔️ A starter plan for silence and retreat

✔️ Boundary scripts you can use this week

✔️ A calmer, truer picture of God’s heart toward you

Now, reply to me with “I hear you!” if you’re in for a week of 8 minutes of silence.
