105 Diet Disruption with Jennifer Powter

It’s so hard, let's not sugar coat it.  Looking after ourselves is hard and sometimes (truth bomb) I really don't want to do it.  I can often show up kicking and screaming to meal prep, meditation and exercise but..

103 The Histamine Link with Luka Symons

"I don't feel safe" That's the sound of a body who's histamine levels can't be regulated properly.  Yeah, that was a penny drop moment for me too!  I had no idea that fear, stress and anxiety stimulated histamine and prevented it from being eliminated properly.  As we know, at menopause, very often our stress hormones […]

99 Cyclical Living with Carly Proctor

Over the years we've come up with many euphemisms to describe it… 🩸 The painters are round 🩸 Aunt Flow has arrived 🩸 It's rag time  Many of these are said lightly and in jest, but the truth is, we find it hard to say the real thing.    "I'm menstruating".    Silence always perpetuates shame, which in turn perpetuates […]

98 How to Have More Energy

I was hanging by a thread, like a piece of over rip fruit about to fall from the tree and go splat on the floor.  Heavy and lethargic.  No energy to lift a finger let alone think about what to cook for dinner.  Energy is a precious resource, but the good news is, it's renewable, […]

97 How To Have An Empowered Menopause

It's not everyday you reach 46 years old, at least it wouldn't be in the 1900's, where the average age of death for a woman was 45.   It makes me shudder to think about it, if I'm honest.  But fast forward to the year 2022 and life expectancy of a person with an ovarian […]
