Hooray for Menopause!
from Suck It And See with Nathy G Hosted by Nathy Gaffney
The doom and gloom of 'the change' in a woman's life is EVERYWHERE (okay. maybe it's just the algorhythms are just picking up on my age, but it does feel like overkill!) Whilst I fully embrace the need for far more information and easy access to the appropriate support and care required to navigate this stage of life that every woman will experience - what I have noticed is that the vast majority of information targeting women talks about the negative health impacts, the parts of our life and womanhood that are dying, drying up (or the case of hot flashes) frying up! I also believe we have an opportunity to craft a narrative around this 'transition' into women's next stage of life, with far more optimism, empowerment and joy. Let's face it - if you're a woman in your 50's - just to have been born in this day and age - means you have so much more opportunity to have a say in how your life plays out. Don't complain about becoming invisible - become visible. Claim this time in your life when you can craft a narrative, and present a story that contributes to a legacy that our daughters can claim as something to embrace when it's their turn, rather than something to be afraid of.
