As Farah and Heather, we invite you to join us on a transformative journey through menopause in our latest podcast episode, ‘Menopause and You: Nurturing a Positive Relationship with Yourself’. This isn't just another conversation about the challenges of menopause; it's a heartfelt dialogue between two women who've lived through the thick of it and emerged on the other side with insights, laughter, and a profound sense of self-love. In this episode, we dive deep into navigating menopause with a positive mindset. We discuss not only the struggles but also the triumphs that come with this inevitable phase of life. It's a candid exploration of how accepting and embracing menopause can lead to an empowering personal rebirth. We share our own experiences and those of our clients to illustrate the powerful shift that occurs when you stop fighting menopause and start aligning with it. We also tackle the often overlooked aspects of menopause, such as the psychological impacts, including mood swings and anxiety, and how these can be mitigated through self-care, proper nutrition, regular exercise, and most importantly, community support. Our conversation is peppered with practical advice and real-world strategies to help you or the women in your life find balance and peace during this time. One of the most vital messages we want to share is the importance of community. Menopause can feel isolating, but it doesn't have to be. We delve into the transformative power of finding a tribe of women who are navigating the same journey. This sense of belonging and mutual support can be a game-changer, providing comfort and understanding when you need it most. Additionally, we discuss the role of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) as a potential tool for managing symptoms and encouraging a proactive approach to health and well-being during menopause. We emphasise making informed choices that resonate with your personal health needs and preferences. This podcast isn't just about surviving menopause; it's about thriving through it. Whether you're entering perimenopause, in the thick of menopause, or curious about what lies ahead, this episode offers a beacon of hope and a roadmap for embracing this phase with confidence and grace. So, why listen to this episode? Because menopause is a journey that all women will embark on, and it's time to change the narrative from one of dread to one of empowerment. Let us guide you through understanding, accepting, and celebrating menopause. Click play and let's embark on this journey together.

This one thing can set us off track and pile on the pounds is cravings and particularly sugar cravings. So why do we crave sugar and not boiled eggs and chicken breast or even broccoli???
