What frustrates you most about how society treats menopause?

For me, it's the generalisations. Society tends to think everyone experiences the same symptoms like hot flushes and moodiness, making menopause seem like a universal hard time. 

But that’s not always the case. 

We each have unique expressions of menopause.

 "Talking with women, I often hear that they believe their sexuality and desire die with menopause. It’s almost accepted that if you're going through menopause, you won’t want intimacy anymore. 

But I believe it’s a time to rediscover what we truly desire.

 Menopause isn't the end of our sexual life—it’s a new chapter."

What's really important is finding what truly fulfills us now. 

This isn’t about giving up on intimacy; it’s about redefining it in a way that honours our inner wisdom and power. Let's create a better story.

Key Points:

Many women buy into the narrative that hormone replacement therapy is the only way to cope with menopause. But there’s so much more.

I love introducing the concept of archetypes, helping women realise who they’ve been and envisioning who they want to become.

If you’ve been the nurturer and motivator, imagine calling upon your inner visionary or truth-teller.

"Menopause can be an empowering time if we allow ourselves to step into it. It's about asking... 

'What do I want now?' How do you envision your life and sexual intimacy?"

Knowing yourself deeply, nurturing your well-being, and understanding your body's messages can help you reclaim your power and flow through this transition.
