Description

On season 6 I am delighted to share real women's stories starting with the incredible Paula Rastrick

One little-known side effect of menopause and perimenopause - they may make or reveal / unveil ADHD symptoms or harder to manage. Paula shares her personal journey from seeking support, hitting rock bottom and taking the lead in advocating for her own wellbeing post menopause.

*Paula's personal story may be triggering relating to her mental health* but I promise you, it's inspiring. Her drive now to research, joining the dots and speaking to other women to understand the science of hormonal sensitivity needs to be heard!
