About this listen
In this first Hot Flash Tuesday episode, I’m sharing how my journey as a writer started during a midlife crisis, right as I decided to leave my wellness podcast and jump into writing a sci-fi audio drama.
I talk about what inspired the story, how it evolved from an alien-in-a-dumpster idea into a fully developed story about a scientist, and how hitting perimenopause completely changed everything. Burnout, anxiety, hot flashes, and creative confusion slowed down the writing process... and forced me to face some deep stuff around aging, purpose, and identity.
You’ll hear about learning how to write a script from scratch, hiring voice actors, and why I had to step away from it for a while just to focus on healing.
If you’re navigating perimenopause, trying to write through burnout, or starting over at 40 & beyond, this podcast is for you. Hot Flashes & Fiction is about writing, grief, midlife, and finding your voice again, one episode at a time.
