This week, I’m joined by the brilliant Sinéad for an honest conversation about the ongoing reality of menopause after cancer.

We talk about what it’s like to navigate life after treatment — how our bodies and identities change, how frustrating it is to have to work so hard at everything (even when considering a simple supplement!), and why it’s so important for others to understand that this journey doesn’t just stop when the treatment ends.

Sinéad also shares from her personal experience of cancer and trauma, and brings her coaching hat to offer some brilliant, practical tips on resilience.

I have a feeling you’ll be nodding along as you listen.
