When Emotional Intelligence Stops Being Emotional Labor

Hello Friends, For many women, what we were taught to call emotional intelligence was often emotional labor in disguise. Reading the room. Anticipating reactions. Managing discomfort before it surfaced. After menopause, something begins to change. The reflex to manage everyone else’s emotional experience loosens and many women worry they’re becoming colder or less kind. They’re not. They’re becoming discerning. In this first episode of The Sovereign Woman, I explore how emotional intelligence evolves after menopause, moving away from emotional management and toward internal authority. This is not about withdrawal or indifference. It’s about clarity, restraint, and self-governance. If you’re in this stage of life and noticing that old strategies no longer fit, this episode will help you name what’s shifting and trust it. 📝 Companion essays and notes are available on Substack at The Midlife Intelligencer.
