I’m hosting an event for women who want to know more about the menopause. Many women are still struggling and don’t have access to someone who understands them and can empathise with what they are experiencing. Someone who can reassure them that they CAN feel BETTER, have more energy and be free of the symptoms. This is POWERFUL as so many women feel alone and like they are the only one experiencing hormonal hell.

This week is the first time in eight months that I feel like I am ready to get back to work – I feel like I’m wearing new glasses and see myself and the world in a different way. You may be reading this while you feel like crap and think ‘well it’s ok for you’ I’m sharing this because I know how bad life can feel sometimes

As your body sends you messages that you are unwilling to listen to, you push harder, do more, ignore the signs, mask the messages, quieten your inner voice. You can’t hide from it, it will always be on your shoulder, you can’t stop it If you feel like giving up; try giving up ignoring your needs, giving up being so hard on yourself, giving up giving up on yourself. The hormonal flux will level out, the emotional rollercoaster will slow down, you won’t feel like this forever.

Jane Lewes, who is in this group, approached me to ask if she could talk about the support group she runs for women experiencing vaginal atrophy. I have to say I’m a little envious of the book as it’s written in just the way I would like to write a book. Jane’s book has chapters on understanding your vagina, what vaginal atrophy, treatments, sex and more. Through this book you”ll learn the hidden secrets of menopause aimed to help you during your own experiences, informing women, men and health professionals of all ages.
