  • MIND: From Trauma to Healing in Midlife
    Warning: there is a discussion that touches on sexual abuse that may be triggering
    Rebecca E Chandler is an author and survivor of childhood sexual abuse. Her book “It Won’t Hurt None – A Story of Courage, Healing, and a Return to Wholeness” details her journey from the depths of trauma to a place of hope and healing, offering a roadmap for others who are struggling with similar issues. In the book, she shares how she struggled with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) and was often misdiagnosed by medical professionals.
    However, through years of therapy and self-reflection, Rebecca was able to heal and reclaim her voice and her power.
    In addition to her memoir, Rebecca has also written a companion journal called “Hurt No More – Grow a Foundation for Healing”. The journal offers a step-by-step guide to help others process their own trauma and find their own path to healing.

  • BODY: Surgical Menopause: a personal story

    Emilie Joyal is a French Canadian living in New Zealand. Faced with a diagnosis for endometriosis and pre-cancerous cells on her ovaries, Emilie was advised to have a hysterectomy at 40. Emilie shares her experience and advice for women considering having a hysterectomy and we discuss, at length, the effects on woman’s hormones and the inevitable acceleration into menopause.


    Emilie's experience was confusing and traumatic, as it often is for women when they don't have the full information they need to go through surgery, recover well and feel supported as they enter forced menopause. Emilie is the Founder of Surgical Menopause New Zealand and has set up a Facebook Community for other woman seeking evidence-based content and support.

  • BODY: Menopause for the South Asian Woman
    As I come closer to 24 months of podcast episodes for Sexy Ageing, it feels like my list of questions are getting longer! one of the BIG questions is "How are women in other countries, cultures and belief systems managing their menopause?" A very general question that has a lot to unpack! 
    In this episode, I'm starting with South Asian women and I interviewed Dr Shashi Prasad, an Indian Hindu national living and working in the UK.
    Dr Shashi is a very experienced GP, British Menopause Society accredited Advanced Menopause Specialist and Board- Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician.
    She has worked in the NHS and privately for many years providing a high standard of care to her patients. During her work as a GP, she noted a huge unmet need for good quality menopause care. This motivated her to start her journey as a menopause specialist and complete her training from King’s College Hospital, one of the leading menopause centres in the UK.
    In this episode, we discuss:
    * Dr Shashi’s motivation to train as a menopause specialist
    * The differences for women in ethnic minorities accessing information, having conversation and support from their doctors.
    * Dr Shashi’s personal experience with menopause and the incidence of South Asian women seeking her help.
    * The higher risk of metabolic syndrome and diabetes in South Asian women and how menopause symptoms affect midlife health.
    * The complete lack of resources in Hindi language - is there a menopause symptom tracker for other languages?
    * The main menopause symptoms of South Asian women.
    I'm looking forward to speaking with more women on the topic of Race, Culture and Menopause for a more inclusive conversation.

    • MIND: My Menopause BFF - everybody needs one!

      Becks McCulloch is 46 and had perimenopause symptoms for 7 years before knowing what they were. She just suffered. I want to highlight at this point that Becks was 39 at the time of starting menopause. I often hear from women “I’m too young to be in menopause” and believe me, I thought that applied to me too! When you speak to someone who’s symptoms start in their late 30’s, it’s a bloody wake up call!

      In this episode, we:

      * compare symptoms and perimenopause experiences

      * discuss the struggle to get motivated

      * talk about feelings of isolation 

      * unpack the role of a menopause support coach

      * decide if menopause is "trending"

      Becks is a trained and practicing physiotherapist, an accredited Menopause Support Coach and helps other women going through perimenopause with her knowledge, skills and lived experience.

      Wishing all the listeners a very Merry Xmas!

    • BODY: Metabolic Syndrome, Insulin Resistance and the effect of Oestrogen on Cognitive Function

      I know the title of the podcast might seems a bit confronting but I believe it's important to understand that there is a lot to unpack when it comes to menopause, weight gain in menopause and overall women's health for longevity. My guest is Carys Sonnenberg, a NHS GP and Women's Health and Menopause Specialist. She is also the Founder of an online resource, Rowena Health, which provides facts and information for women in menopause.

      In this episode, we unpack a lot

      • We discuss some of the new marketing messages to women in menopause - the use of the words “meno-belly” “meno-weight” “fix your hormones” "rebalance your hormones”
      • Her own experience with perimenopause as a doctor - recognising it in others but not in herself.
      • What is metabolic syndrome? What is insulin resistance? What is the relationship to menopause?
      • How does metabolic syndrome impact on health and  longevity?
      • Weight gain vs HRT vs motivation
      • The role of oestrogen in cognitive function.
