In today's episode, I have two women who have gone and done fantastic things whilst moving their bodies. Yep, we talk about the benefits of exercise but what we focus on are all the trimmings that come with it, the things that are hard to be measured and why it’s ok to be last and how that can still make you feel like you’re winning and on top of the world.

If you’re moving lots already or have lost your mojo completely, I hope this episode will sprinkle you with a good portion of positivity!

Lucy Patullo has worked as a lawyer for an investment bank but decided to qualify as a Pilates teacher following her cancer diagnosis in 2021. She now helps others experience the benefits of Pilates to help them get through treatment & thrive beyond cancer. She set up Rebalance Me UK.

About Dani:

The Menopause and Cancer Podcast is hosted by Dani Binnington, menopause guide, patients advocate for people in menopause after a cancer diagnosis, and founder of the online platform Healthy Whole Me. 

There is lots of information out there about the menopause but hardly any if you have had a cancer diagnosis as well. Many people say to me they have no idea what their options are, who to ask for help, and that they feel really isolated in their experiences. 

I started this podcast because there was nothing out there when I was thrown into surgical menopause at the age of 39, which followed on from my cancer diagnosis aged 33.

Through the episodes, I want to create more awareness, share information from our fabulous guest experts, doctors and other specialists in the cancer and menopause field. 

And of course, I will share stories from the people in our community.

So that together we can work towards a better menopause experience. For all of us.

More educated, better informed and less alone.
