WHAT I BELIEVE
MENOPAUSE DESERVES A BETTER STORY
Not one that pretends it’s fabulous. And not one that tells us it’s all downhill from here. Menopause can be hard. But it can also make us stop, get curious and ask some pretty important questions about how we want to live the rest of our lives.

I DIDN’T PLAN
ON BECOMING
OBSESSED WITH
MENOPAUSE.
BUT THEN MENOPAUSE HAPPENNED TO ME.
“Hot flash” seemed a ridiculous understatement for something that made me feel as though I might explode. My husband had to bring me clothes to change into at work. I was buzzing awake at night, having panic attacks and, just to top it all off, my memory deserted me.
I had just started a Master’s in Counselling Psychology. Something that took my peers 45 minutes could take me half a day. I’d read a page and remember nothing.
So I started digging. I educated myself.
And somewhere along the way, I stopped trying to get the old me back. I got curious about who came next.

WHAT NEEDS
AN EDIT?
Maybe it’s how you feel in your body. Your relationship. Your sex life. Your confidence. Your work. Or maybe you’re an employer wondering how the hell you’re supposed to support people through something nobody really talks about.
You don’t need to have it figured out before you reach out. That’s kind of the point.
Tell me what’s going on. We’ll start there.
