Emma Barnett talks to her friend, journalist and presenter Kate Thornton, about something she’s been experiencing but has never spoken about publicly before.

Sometimes a person comes into your life at exactly the right moment to help you through something major. Kate is one of those people for Emma. She’s been guiding her through perimenopause. In the UK, 13 million women are currently experiencing perimenopause or menopause, but information about what it is and what can help can be hard to find. This conversation aims to change that.

In Ready to Talk with Emma Barnett, the award-winning interviewer speaks to people you will know and people you should know about the experiences that are shaping their lives.
