from This Voice is Mine: the Unquiet Podcast
Dr Helen Wall spent years quietly noticing something no one had trained her to see: that hormones shape the brain, and for neurodivergent women, that shift can be seismic. Her own perimenopause took her ability to function before it touched anything else. She was told she was too young. She believed it, for six months, until she couldn't cope and finally sought help.In this episode, Dr Emma Offord and Jolene Ironside talk with Helen, GP, menopause specialist and author of Menopause and ADHD, about medical misogyny, endometriosis diagnosis times that are rising rather than falling, and the pressure to secure a formal diagnosis before you're allowed to trust your own experience. Helen's message throughout is simple and hard won: you don't have to wait for permission to understand yourself.Connect with Helen: @doctorhelenwall | tvhealthdoctor.comThis Voice Is Mine: The Unquiet Podcast is hosted by Dr Emma Offord, clinical psychologist and founder of Divergent Lives.
