In the very first episode of Unpaused, Sam and Renée introduce themselves, share how they unexpectedly found themselves working in the perimenopause space, and explore the experiences that led them here.

Renée discusses being blindsided by perimenopause in her late 30s, the symptoms she never expected, and the challenges of getting answers. Sam shares what it was like watching his partner experience changes he didn't understand, the mistakes he made, and why he ended up becoming a Menopause Champion and accidentally writing a book.

Together, they discuss relationships, communication, why so many partners take symptoms personally, and how shifting from "its not me versus you, its us versus the problem" can change everything.

Expect honest conversation, practical insights, a few laughs, a discussion about scraping cereal bowls with metal spoons, and the beginning of a podcast focused on helping people feel less alone and more understood.

Because it's not you versus them. It's you both versus the problem
