In this inspiring episode of Two Women Chatting, Michelle sits down with wellness advocate and fitness expert Kate Rowe-Ham for a deep dive into the complex journey of menopause and future proofing our health. Kate shares her insights on how strength training, mindful nutrition and taking charge of personal well-being can transform this life stage. The conversation emphasises the power of health ownership, body confidence, and viewing menopause as a time of growth rather than limitation. Kate and Michelle also bond over their experiences with late ADHD diagnoses, sharing how understanding and embracing their diagnoses has brought a new perspective to midlife.
Key Takeaways:
