In this episode of the Sexy Ageing podcast, host Tracy Minnoch-Nuku and guest Stella MacGregor discuss the journey from perimenopause to postmenopause. They share personal experiences, unique symptoms, and the empowerment that comes with navigating this life stage. The conversation emphasizes the importance of lifestyle changes, mental health, and the hope that lies in postmenopause, encouraging women to embrace their strength and purpose as they age. Stella is a long-time subscriber in the Sexy Ageing app and an incredible example of a woman who has come through the toughest of perimenopause stronger and more resilient. Takeaways The journey through menopause can be challenging but empowering. Unique symptoms like vertigo and rage can occur during perimenopause. Lifestyle changes, including exercise and diet, can significantly impact well-being. Women often experience a shift in mindset during perimenopause. Empowerment comes from taking control of one's health and choices. Postmenopause can be a time of renewed purpose and strength. Compassion for oneself and others increases during this life stage. It's important to talk about the diverse experiences of menopause. Women can thrive in their 50s and beyond, redefining their lives. The choices made during menopause can shape the future positively.

100 Episodes in the Sexy Ageing Podcast! And how fitting that I get to speak with Niki Bezzant, Author of “This Changes Everything: the honest guide to menopause and perimenopause” and “The Everything Guide: Hormones, Health and Happiness in menopause, midlife and beyond” for the 100th episode and the final one for 2024.  Niki and I have had quite similar perimenopause experiences, but as we know, it’s different for every woman. We also wanted to review the state of menopause the past few years and ultimately highlight that research, care and support IS getting better and yet there is still so much that needs to be done. This is a JUICY episode and we discuss: Our Hormone Therapy (HT) experiences and the symptoms that sent us to the doctor for help. What worked and what didn't. Body shape changes and how we feel about it. The lifelong challenge women have with body image and how menopause can help or hinder. Niki’s overview from the recent International Menopause Society Conference - how menopause is complicated - the data and research gaps - what the world knows and doesn’t know about menopause - new and promising interventions - when to start HT - and the importance of exercise during menopause. Medical social media influencers and how they help, or not! “Menowashing” pros and cons and do the supplements work? Diets - what are the best and worst during menopause. Healthy aging and gendered ageism and what this actually means for women. It’s a LOT! Niki and I could have spoken for hours and I’m so grateful that we do make the time to catch up to share what we have learnt and help other women.  You can find Niki HERE SEXY AGEING RESOURCES FOR MENOPAUSE SUPPORT Sexy Ageing Fitness and Lifestyle APP: https://getstarted.sexyageing.com/ Sexy Ageing WEBSITE To contact me to discuss a workshop for your business, please email [email protected] or review the WORKSHOPS Landing Page  Book: My Menopause Memoir Download your FREE Menopause Symptom Tracker HERE   BENABLE ONLINE SHOPPING: Use this invite code to set up your own account for free "SA7YX"  CONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIALS Instagram  TikTok  The Sexy Ageing Facebook Community

It's been a while since I've had a conversation with another woman in her menopause life stage. About 10 months ago, Tarryn accidentally went viral on TikTok with a clip about her perimenopause journey—because apparently, the universe thought she hadn’t had enough surprises for one lifetime. Fuelled by a desire to make sure other women didn’t face the same blindsiding, she kept the conversation going, mixing in her own life stories, quirks, and a healthy dose of self-deprecating humour. Tarryn’s unfiltered honesty and willingness to show off her imperfections have turned her into the relatable, ‘so-not-Instagram’ character that women didn’t know they were missing. After all, who wants perfect when you can have real?

PMDD - Pre-menstrual dysphoric disorder, can affect up to 20% of the female population yet very little is known about it. Many of us can attest to PMS symptoms throughout our monthly cycles and 1 in 5 women may be experiencing hormonally driven symptoms that can seriously impact their quality of life. I spoke with Dr Ceri Cashell, MBCHB MRCP MRCGP FRACGP, GP Principal (Avalon Family Medical Practice) in Australia about PMDD. The questions I asked her: 1. What is PMDD and how is it diagnosed? 2. When it comes to menopause, how does PMDD affect women? 3. What are your top recommendations to support women who might be struggling with PMDD and in menopause?  I hope this episode helps someone looking for answers.

Kirstin Bouse is a Clinical and Forensic Psychologist with nearly 3 decades of experience.  Over the past 15 or so years, she’s found herself working with women as they navigate big transitions in their lives - motherhood, divorce and perimenopause.  Six years into her own perimenopause experience, along with a late-diagnosis of ADHD (after all 3 sons were diagnosed as teenagers and young adults - yep, she was late to the party for them too) and burnout, Kirstin became super frustrated by the lack of recognition of the significance of perimenopause and midlife in general. Let alone the double whammy of perimenopause and ADHD. In this episode, we discuss: - what exactly is ADHD? - the differences in ADHD between the sexes - the process of getting a diagnosis for ADHD - why is it that women in perimenopause might start to question if they have ADHD? - what support can one expect once they have an ADHD diganosis YOU CAN CONNECT WITH KIRSTEN HERE ALL ABOUT HER CLINIC NEW SEXY AGEING FITNESS APP - LAUNCHING SEP 2024⁠ ⁠READ MY MENOPAUSE MEMOIR⁠ I use⁠ GOGOOD PROTEIN⁠: get 15% off with "SEXYAGEING" I'm getting stronger with ⁠PUSH GUMMIES⁠ creatine monohydrate: get 15% off ⁠SEXYAGEING WEBSITE⁠ - for workshops, retreats, blog posts and more!
