Listen "#16: Powering into and through menopause"

Episode Synopsis

It’s estimated that in the UK one third of females, that’s around 13 million people, are currently peri or menopausal. Add onto this all of the people in these women’s lives who they spend their time with at home, work or socially and you have an enormous number of people who are coming into contact with menopause in some way. Then put this onto a global scale and you can see that there’s a massive proportion of the population who are affected in some way by the menopause right now.
That’s why this week we’re diving deep into all things menopause with expert Dr Lisa Kwapniowski. We’re exploring the myths and beliefs that mean so many women fear this part of their lives and dread the menopause, thinking it’s the beginning of the end of their lives.
This is an important subject for anyone of any age. It’s not only a necessity that the topic of menopause is better understood by females, but that males too have awareness of it, and that everybody has more knowledge to make conversation around it normal.
In our conversation we’re exploring:

What perimenopause and menopause are.
Why we need to clear-up the mystery and myths about them.
The change in our bodies and the way we feel during the different stages of the menopause.
The importance of optimising your hormones to minimise symptoms and manage the changes during this season of your life.
The role of nutrition, exercise, sleep and stress at this stage of your life.
Opening up the conversation on menopause across men and women and why it should be included in the wellbeing strategies of businesses.
Taking a balanced approach to your health at every age and stage of your life.
