Join Susannah, and Gillian McCormick, Physiotherapist and Pelvic Health Specialist, for a wide-ranging conversation about movement as a key element of health care throughout our lives, and particularly for women experiencing symptoms of peri-menopause and menopause.   We talk about what happens when our bodies start to change and how that might affect our movement, and about common themes around workouts and health. There are ways to balance the proven importance of adding load to our workouts, to the realities in our bodies and minds when we're getting started.   Understand what you might be navigating, learn where to start and where to find help if you need it. More than anything - be good to yourself and just TRY.  Gillian mentioned some important resources for information about perimenopause and menopause: The North American Menopause Society The Canadian Menopause Society Menopause Chicks If you'd like to learn more about menopause & womens' health, check out Susannah & Gillian's interviews with Dr. Dedeshya Holowenko on the Small Conversations for a Better World podcast: The State of Menopause, Pt. 1 The State of Menopause, Pt. 2Breaking Down Barriers for Women Accessing HealthcareAnd that quote that Susannah couldn't quite get right?
