Ep.81 Out of the Bubble with Heather Jackson and Sam Simister, the founders of Gen-M.com

It was so great to see Davina McCall’s Sex, Myths and the Menopause documentary on mainstream television and I hope this has opened the doors to more conversations. I’m delighted to be joined by the co-founders of the new Gen-M one stop shop platform. Driven by co-founders Heather Jackson and Sam Simister, who both found the menopause hard to navigate and felt there was no advice out there for women experiencing the menopause. GEN M is the one stop shop for the Menopause and wants to make menopause better today than it was yesterday. GEN M believe women deserve better right now from brands, retailers and manufacturers in terms of menopause, and why brands have a part to play in breaking this taboo and social issue just as much as doctors, employers, partners, friends, family members and work colleagues. GEN M is more than just a website that brings the best of the menopause to one place, and Sam and Heather are determined that through collaborative actions driven by ourselves, we can make a real change to the change. Subjects covered- ·  Meet the women behind Gen M ·  An idea born from frustration and desperation ·  What is GenM? ·  48 Symptoms of the Peri menopause and menopause. ·  The Invisibility Report ·  Tackling the taboo subjects ·  Why brands are still not showing up for women in midlife ·  What changes would Gen-M like to see? ·  Lifting the stigma attached to the menopause ·  Knowledge is power ·  Why we need to see women come together and unite ·  Addressing the menopause as a societal issue and not just a women’s issue.
