Understanding female hormones to maximise our happiness, productivity and empowerment with Lucy Patel | Ep 36

Do you want to know how to cope with peri-menopause and menopause to maximise your happiness, productivity and empowerment? In this episode we talk about women's health, especially looking at hormones, nutrition, self-care and exercise and ways to be happier and healthier at any age! One of our aims is to normalise talking about hormones, women's health struggles with periods, peri-menopause or menopause and what impact it may have on our careers, personal satisfaction and family happiness. Did you know that peri-menopause can often start with common emotional and psychological symptoms? Many women in their 40s or 50s might be asking themselves some of these questions: "Why do I feel so unbalanced all the time? Why do I always feel like I can't cope? Why do I feel so anxious? Why do I feel so stressed? Why am I forgetting words?" As a society, we sweep these questions under the rug and pretend "It's normal" because it's so common. But common doesn't mean normal! We dive deep into the science behind female hormones and how they change during different stages of our lives. Lucy explains why sleep, self-care, rest and relaxation as well as stress management, are key to feeling happier and healthier (and being more focused and productive while at work). It's such a valuable episode for every woman looking to understand herself (her body and mind) better for a happier, healthier and more empowered life! * * * Find out more about Lucy and her work here: https://www.lucypatelnutrition.co.uk/ And connect with her on social media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucy-patel-nutrition/ https://www.instagram.com/lucypnutrition/
