Yesterday’s Instagram & Facebook LIVE for World Menopause Day was a blast! We had an engaging, fun, and eye-opening conversation about a topic that doesn’t get enough attention—menopause. 🌸 It was so fulfilling to connect with an amazing group of women and professionals to: ✅ Debunk some common myths around menopause. ✅ Discuss the importance of mental health and self-care during this natural transition. ✅ Explore natural ways to cope with symptoms. ✅ Highlight the benefits of hormone replacement therapy and how it might fit into your wellness plan. One of the key takeaways for many was the discovery that this natural process of menopause doesn’t just happen in your 50s—you can start experiencing the early stages, perimenopause, in your 30s. This was a new insight for some of us, and it reinforces the importance of being proactive about your health. It’s never too early to start evaluating how you feel. Listen to your body, track your symptoms, and don’t hesitate to seek help from professionals who are here to guide you through this journey. Surround yourself with providers who respect both natural approaches and evidence-based therapies to support you. Remember, this is a beautiful and empowering process. With the right mindset and support, you can navigate it with grace, confidence, and self-care. ❤️ Feel free to DM me if you want to dive deeper into this or need guidance on your journey! #WorldMenopauseDay #MenopauseAwareness #SelfCareMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #Perimenopause #HormoneTherapy #WomenInBusiness #HealthcareProfessionals #Empowerment #Coaching #NaturalWellness #WellnessJourney #HealthAtEveryStage #ProfessionalWomen #MenopauseSupport

For ladies... What would be your reaction if your health care provider told you, that menopause can be "A Journey of Self-Discovery & Empowerment"? Are you or someone you know navigating the transition through menopause? We do not get to speak about it much. I got a question, one seeking to shade some light on some of their emotional pain. It all turned out to be hormonal related. There we were, discussing menopause. I recall that, in a recent engagement with a precious group of ladies, I had the opportunity of sharing insights on how to thrive during this phase. I always prefer not only to address the associated symptoms, but also, to empower ladies to embrace self-care and wellbeing. The aim is to leave the receiver feeling empowered, well informed, and supported through this transition! It is always an honour for me to harness opportunities that enable me to empower women towards a healthier, happier and more fulfilling life, even with menopause in the picture. The natural transition that comes with menopause, can be a catalyst for growth, self-care, and wellbeing. Scientific research reveals that; ● Menopause is a natural biological process, not a medical problem ● Women that consult with a healthcare provider early enough, have better quality of life going through the menopausal transition ● Symptoms can be managed with lifestyle changes and support ● Self-care and prioritising your health, way before its occurance, will increase the chances of one thriving during this phase How have you endeavoured to own your health and wellbeing, to be best prepared?

It's more than just the end of periods; it's a transformative phase. But did you know there’s an important stage before menopause itself? It's called perimenopause, and it’s where the journey really begins. 🤔Think of perimenopause as the dress rehearsal for the main event. It can start in your 40s (sometimes even earlier) and comes with its own mix of symptoms—irregular periods, hot flashes, mood swings, and changes in sleep. This is the body's way of saying, "Hold on, change is coming!" 🥵Menopause, on the other hand, is the final curtain—marked by 12 consecutive months without a period. The symptoms may still be around, but they signal the end of reproductive years. 💗So, what can women do to ride these waves with confidence? Beyond the physical changes, the emotional journey is just as important. Staying in control of your emotions can help you stay centered during these times. A mix of self-care, balanced hormones, and the right support can help you navigate this phase with clarity. 💯If there's one thing I’ve learned in the healthcare world, it's that being in control of your emotions isn’t just about feeling good—it's key to making sound decisions for your health and well-being. 🫰Let’s embrace this chapter as a time for reflection, growth, and power! #MenopauseJourney #Perimenopause #WomensHealth #EmotionalWellbeing #HormonalHealth #WomensEmpowerment #Healthcare #ClimactericMedicine #Menopause #HRT #BlackCohosh

Menopause is a natural biological process that happens as women age. It can also happen as a result of a serious illness or medical procedure. Simply put, menopause is when your body stops producing the hormones that support having a child. When a woman is in menopause, she no longer menstruates. But despite the fact that most women will eventually go through this process, it seems very few people actually talk about it. 💬 1. No one can predict when you specifically will experience menopause. While age, genetic factors, health and certain demographic characteristics can be linked to when a female will experience menopause, every woman is different. Most women go through menopause in their mid-40s to mid-50s, but some go through it later or earlier. 2. You may experience a variety of mental health and physical symptoms related to menopause that can affect your daily life. Most women have mild to moderate symptoms, which may include: Mood changes, anxiety and depression Lowered sex drive Hot flashes and/or night sweats Sleep problems Incontinence and/or urinary tract infections (UTIs) Weight gain Loss of bone density Symptoms may start during perimenopause and last after menopause. They vary depending on the person, and can change over time. 3. Safe and effective treatments can help with menopause symptoms. Many women who experience mild or moderate menopause symptoms successfully use self-help remedies, such as: -Using in-the-moment coping strategies — like deep breathing techniques and/or practicing mindfulness, meditation and yoga — to manage anxious thoughts or feelings. -Nurturing overall health and wellness by reducing stress, being physically active, eating nutritious foods and doing activities you enjoy. -Wearing layered clothing makes it easier to adjust during a hot flash, and so can keeping your room cooler and using layered bedding for night sweats. #menopause #menopauseandmentalhealth
