#6 Why talking about menopause helps with Rachel Weiss


Listen Later

Talking about perimenopause used to be a huge taboo but thankfully times are changing!  Talking to others helps.  We all know this so it seems crazy that for so long nobody talked about menopause.  

However, back in 2017, Counsellor Rachel Weiss wanted to change this and set up the first menopause café.  Rachel was passionate that everyone, men and women, should be able to talk openly about all things menopause, as well as drink tea and eat cake.

That first get together has since turned into the Menopause Café charity, which supports volunteers worldwide to host thousands of pop-up events both in person and on line where people continue to drink tea, eat cake and talk menopause.

 In this week’s episode, Rachel and I discuss:

  •  What you can expect at a menopause café.
  • How talking helps during perimenopause. 
  • How to build your self-confidence at this stage of life.
  • Some of the questions brought to the surface during perimenopause such as ‘Who am I?’
  • How changing your perspective creates a more positive experience. 
  • How stopping and noticing your thoughts helps you become kinder to yourself.
  • Rachel’s latest project ‘Flushfest’.
