Peri Menopause Power

Welcome to our new series of episodes where we share the very personal story from an "everyday woman" who is navigating her way through Peri Menopause.  Today we interview Corrie Stathis, Scottish born Melbourne mum. Mum of 3 girls (20,18 and 16), wife and lover of all things health / wellness as well as the odd tipple of G ‘n T or a good rosé. She bravely shares the ups and downs from her last 6 months as she experiences challenging Peri Menopause symptoms. 

We know you will get so much from our chat with Corrie as we're sure many of you will either relate to her personal experiences in life and at work. Corrie is an absolute joy to speak with and learn from and we know you will love listening to her. 

If you have a Peri Menopause story that you would like to share as a way to support other women we'd love to hear from you and get you on the podcast. Our mission is to ensure No woman is left behind and it's only through sharing our open stories can we break the stigma and taboo. 

Another way we are ensuring "no woman is left behind" is through our online community group Women Thriving Together. In joining this membership you will be connected with other women, learning from us and being inspired and motivated to take care of your greatest asset - YOU. You can learn more or join now here

And of course if you have a moment we'd love to hear from you, will you leave us a review or subscribe to our podcast so you do not miss any future episodes.

In this week's episode Lisa and Nat have a candid chat about the the things they are seeing and hearing with women they speak to.

Am I going through Peri Menopause is one of the most unanswered questions that women have. They seek advise from medical professionals to often be turned away multiple times before getting any answers. 

Lisa and Nat talk about the role having a medical professional who knows Menopause is important, how listening to your own intuition is a game changer and some of the things you can do to build your knowledge and be more informed about your body at all ages. 

Peri Menopause can be a complex and challenging time and having a support network around plays a pivotal part in navigating the phase healthily and well. This is why they have created the online community group Women Thriving Together. This is your one stop platform for coaching, learning, support, community and connection so that you can support your greatest asset - YOU!

Welcome to Part 4 of our Creating Thriving Health Mini Series. This is the last episode in this series but by no means least important. 

In today's episode we talk through Emotional Health and in particular the importance of our relationships and connections that support us, serve us and contribute to our whole health and wellbeing. 

Surrounding ourselves with positive friendships, supportive people and others who we can talk too and can even understand the experiences we are having goes a long way to contributing to our thriving health. We also know that having positive friendships can be challenging or making friends particularly as we get older can be tricky but it is possible. 

This is part of our reason for starting Women Thriving Together. We speak to countless women who feel alone, isolated and really feel like they have no one that understands their experience or what they are going through. WTT is about ensuring no woman is left behind and that the "woman" behind their career, business, personal goals, life and relationships is being supported. At the end of the day if you are not thriving, your career, life, business, goals etc will not be thriving either. 

We would love you to join us at WTT and be inspired, connected, informed and truly supported. You can learn more or join here 

And always if you are loving our episodes and podcast we would love you to leave a review, subscribe and/or share our podcast with those around you. As a side note, if you have enjoyed this four part series we'd love you to leave a review or send us some feedback at [email protected]

Welcome to Part 3 of our mini series Creating Thriving Health. 

The focus of this mini series is to give you some practical information and insights into how you can support and nurture your whole health. The start of the year brings with it the usual messages of setting new years resolutions or losing weight fast, which drives us a little crazy because real supportive thriving health takes real behaviour change and the key ingredient is supporting the whole you from your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. 

In this week's episode we talk you through your mental health and your spiritual health. It's quite interesting because one of these pillars gets so much air time and the other one is usually looked upon with hippy lens. Of course mental health gets a lot of attention and rightly so it is extremely important to nurture our mind and our brain. Spiritual health on the other day is viewed a little woo-woo but as you have probably realised by now, we really can't have one without the other. 

We provide some insights into how everyone has mental health and a very important way that we can all nurture our mental health. We also talk about spiritual health and how essentially its our spiritual health that supports our true self. 

We hope enjoy this episode, feel free to send any questions our way. We thrive on being able to truly support you. 

As mentioned throughout this series, we are launching Women Thriving Together. We have created Women Thriving Together to help you feel your own shift and live your best life. WTT is a no cookie cutter approach of learnings, conversations and a whole health framework to educate your mind, body and soul. We give you the tools and then the "how" you implement this is completely up to you but we’ll be with you every step of the way. You can join in here https://women-thriving-together.mn.co/

We welcome you to Part 2 of our Creating Thriving Health Mini Series. 

In this episode we talk about Physical Health and how there are a multitude of ways that you can support your physical health. We also talk about the incidence of stress - both good and bad stress and the role stress plays on our physical and our whole health. 

We refer to a past episode about Nutrition for Menopause which you may like to relisten to and delve into how food nutrition can play a significant role in supporting a healthy menopause journey offering you an opportunity to use food as lifestyle medicine without adding too much to your to-do list...As Lisa says let's make sure we get bang for our buck with the nutrients, goodness and support from the food we eat.

Happy New Year listeners! We hope the holiday season and the start of the year has been a beautiful time and will continue to be into 2023. 

As you would know, the beginning of a new year always brings focus around new years resolutions. We despise the thought process around new years resolutions and believe more deeply in tuning into yourself and what you need from a whole health perspective and creating healthy habits around that. 

Over the next few weeks we are going to take you through a mini series which will focus on helping you connect to your whole health and what it is may need and want when it comes to thriving in your health, life, career, self.

In this first episode we talk through our 5 pillar framework which is a venn diagram of four circles each representing your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health which surrounds the work SELF. 

We talk through why this framework serves as a great tool to support your health and life desires as well as talking specifically about the self - You - and how knowing where you are and what you need is an important first step. 

If you would like to know more about this framework, you can read more over at our blogs. 

We hope you enjoy this episode and the others to follow as we take you on a journey to creating thriving health.

Welcome to our final episode for 2022!

In this episode we take a moment to reflect on the year that saw an increase in Menopause awareness and conversation, fabulous interviews with amazing women who all have story to share and there was a touch of personal challenge together with some lessons for you. 

We are super proud of this podcast and what we have achieved in bringing this important topic and phase of life to your listening ears each week. As you have come to appreciate Menopause (as an umbrella phase of life) is a topic that comes with challenges, stigma, personal struggle but as we have tried to share through this podcast it is also one that presents life long learning, opportunity and personal growth that we can take into our next phase of life. 

We are really grateful to you for listening, sharing and being part of our podcast and as well as being part of our work and our mission to empower women 40+ to continue to thrive and live their best life. If you have checked out our work you can at www.ownyourhealthco.com.au

If you have loved listening to our episodes each week, we'd love it if you could leave us a review and let us know what you are loving. 

We look forward to coming to you again in 2023. Keep an eye out for a special 4 part mini series we will be dropping over January that will help you set your 2023 year to be the best yet. 

With Love 

Lisa & Natalie
