In this episode I chat with 3 amazing women, Dianne Benson, Yogi adventurer from season 2 episode 4, Nurse Practitioner Gilly Spence from Season 1 episode 23 and Bee Macpherson Associate Professor Clinical Education, Associate Director Student Support, at the School of Medicine, University of Leeds.
Each share with us their menopause journey, from symptoms to emotions, what helped them and how they got though it.
Bee has set up 'Menopause for thought' cafes for peer support and is a pioneer in raising awareness through talks, workshops and programmes.
Gilly has set up Our Menopause Ripon facebook group and holds local monthly meetings for women to get together to share and for support.
Dianne runs daily yoga classes via zoom and supports her students going through menopause in many different ways
