The Age Society Forgot

It’s been eight months since the last episode, and this one couldn’t have come at a better time. October is Menopause Awareness Month, and in today’s episode, I’m opening up about my own journey through perimenopause - the confusion, the isolation, the sleepless nights and the symptoms no one warned me about.

When I first started experiencing everything from itchy skin and gum pain to heart palpitations and brain fog, I had no idea it was all connected. Like so many women, I was trying to manage each symptom in isolation, until one late-night Google search changed everything.

In this raw and deeply personal episode, I share how perimenopause has impacted not just my physical and emotional wellbeing, but also my identity as a woman in her forties. I talk about the shock of realising I was in perimenopause at 45, how it affected my mental health and relationships and the frustrating lack of awareness and support that so many of us face.

We’ll also explore how women in their forties are often made to feel invisible - overlooked by brands, media and even the medical system - and why it’s time we start rewriting that narrative. This is an honest, vulnerable and empowering conversation for any woman who’s ever felt unseen, unheard, or unprepared for this stage of life.

If you’re experiencing similar symptoms or simply want to understand what this transition can feel like, this episode is for you. You are not alone. 💛

🎧 Plus, I’ll share the pivotal moment that helped me finally feel seen - and how it changed everything.
