Before I knew about perimenopause, Steve had never even heard the word either. Like a lot of men (and women), it just wasn’t on his radar until it started showing up in real time, through my body, emotions, and energy. And now, thankfully, medical professionals talking about it out loud. 

We talk about:

  • What this season has looked and felt like from his perspective
  • The changes he’s noticed in me and in our relationship
  • How we keep the conversation open so he knows how to best support me
  • Why it’s so important for couples to talk about this, even when it’s uncomfortable or unknown

This episode is for anyone who’s in or around this stage of life. You don't have to be in a relationship with someone going through it. It could be your mum, your sister, your aunt, your friend. 

Perimenopause doesn’t just affect the person going through it. It affects the people around us too. And when we talk about it openly, it becomes something to navigate together.
