Listen "Episode 185 - What We Wish People Understood - October Community Special"
Episode Synopsis
October is a busy and often overwhelming month — with Breast Cancer Awareness campaigns everywhere and World Menopause Awareness Day on the calendar. For many in our community, it can be triggering, noisy, and emotionally exhausting.That’s why this month, I’m handing the microphone over to you — our incredible community. In this special episode, we share the things we wish our friends, families, workplaces, and the wider world really understood about navigating menopause after cancer.Joining me for this honest (and slightly unpredictable!) chat are Rachel, Anna, and Rebecca — each bringing their unique perspective, warmth, and a few friendly rants along the way.Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro04:50 Community Support and Awareness Initiatives09:19 Treatment Transition and New Challenges18:04 Balancing HRT with Healthy Lifestyle22:10 Balancing Emotions and Motivation25:50 "A Journey from Isolation to Insight"26:53 Prioritising Self-Care Amidst Busy Life31:20 "Realisation of Hidden Depression"33:50 Coping with Anxiety Post-Cancer40:23 Upcoming 50km Fundraising WalkIn this episode we talk about:Join us in London on the 4th October for PAUSE LIVE menopause show.
