WHILE WOMEN ARE THE ONES EXPERIENCING MENOPAUSE, ITS EFFECTS ALSO IMPACTS THOSE AROUND US, PARTICULARLY OUR SIGNIFICANT OTHERS.

Meet Robert Grimes. Robert was fortunate/unfortunate enough to start chatting to me one day about the coping mechanisms he’d developed to help him and his partner through the often bumpy ride that is menopause.

Before poor Robert fully realised what was happening I suspect, he’d agreed to come on the podcast and talk about his experiences.

This is something I’d been curious about for a while: what is it (their partners going through menopause) like for the men in our lives? What are their thoughts? How do they deal with it? Early on in the podcast, I had an email from one gorgeous husband asking if I knew of any support groups for partners of menopausal women, so I know it’s a thing (he found a support group outside of Facebook but I’m not sure where).

So here it is: one man’s view on how he deals with his partner’s menopause, and he does it with complete love and respect, by the way. Come and listen to Robert and find out more about the work he does for people and their relationships. Connect with us here: http://bit.ly/mmm_ep68
