Women on Fire®

Show Notes: 

Dr Mirjana Janjic is a women's health specialist with a specialist interest in state-of-the-art medical laser treatments for stress incontinence, vaginal atrophy, vaginal prolapse and snoring. 

These are all common issues during menopause but many women are too embarrassed to talk about them. The good news is they're usually treatable.

Indeed, after training with specialist gynaecologists in Europe who are the pioneers of minimally invasive gynaecological laser procedures, Dr Mirjana introduced the innovative approaches to Melbourne, Australia and then Auckland, New Zealand. 

Dr Mirjana is a Fellow of the Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP), Fellow of Cosmetic Physicians College of Australasia (CPCA) and a Board Certified Aesthetic Medicine Physician (AAAM).

On this episode of Women On Fire® we're talking about perimenopause or the period of transition as you lead up to menopause.

Often called 'peri' which means around or near perimenopause can begin as early as your mid to late 30s but - on average - in your 40s. 

Peri can be a confusing and overwhelming time so don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

On this episode we talk about:

Show Notes: 

Dr Linda Dear has the perfect training behind her to work with women navigating the waters of perimenopause/menopause. 

Indeed, her background brings a wealth of knowledge of both holistic wellness and academic/medical training to the table.

Not only is Dr Linda a NAMS (North American Menopause Society) Certified Menopause Practitioner,  she's also a medical doctor with a fitness background.

In her younger years she was a competitive British gymnast who won bronze at the 1994 Commonwealth Games and from there she went on to become a personal fitness trainer and Ashtanga yoga teacher.

In addition, she completed a psychology degree and post-graduate training in the ACT model of psychotherapy. 

And as if that's not enough, Dr Linda graduated from London Medical School and added a post-graduate diploma in obstetrics and gynaecology. 

So to say she's well-qualified to help women take a multi-pronged approach to manage menopause is something of an understatement.

There is so much conflicting advice and data about caffeine and alcohol especially during perimenopause and menopause. 

So we took a look into the subjects. And the truth is, it's confusing for everyone.

Everyone is different and this is very true of women going through peri- and post-menopause.

So this episode lays out a few facts, a few theories, and a few experiences.

Show Notes: 

Rebecca Gibney is one of Australasia's most-loved actresses. A household name in both Australia and New Zealand, her performance as Julie Rafter on Packed to the Rafters earned her a Gold Logie Award for Most Popular Personality and two Silver Logies for Most Popular Actress.

But accolades aside - and she has many more - Rebecca has been winning hearts on our screens for decades. From The Flying Doctors and Halifax fp TV series to the film, The Dressmaker she has shared her beauty, talent and charisma with us.

Now in her 50s, she is refreshingly candid about filters and growing older as well as sharing her wonderful sense of humour on social media. 

Currently starring as beautiful Daisy and executive producing the popular rom-com series Under The Vines Rebecca drops in for a quick visit to Women On Fire® to talk about Daisy, menopause, and growing older. 

Rebecca is a genuinely delightful person and we were thrilled to have her as our guest. She shared some wonderful tips and advice. And don't be fooled by her humbleness, she was included in Who Magazine's World's Most Beautiful People in 2018 when she would have been around 50.
