Things I want my Daughters to Know

In this deeply important and eye-opening episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by therapist Stacy Michelle Schaffer for a powerful conversation about teen mental health, trauma, and the realities facing the next generation of girls. We explore how today's teenagers are navigating a completely different world — one shaped by social media, constant comparison, and exposure to challenges previous generations never experienced at this scale. Stacy shares her clinical insights into anxiety, body image struggles, and the growing mental health crisis among young women. We also connect this conversation back to midlife — unpacking how unresolved trauma can resurface during perimenopause, and why the way we respond to our children's emotions has a lasting impact on their wellbeing. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: www. authorstacyschaffer.com IG: hoperestored  FB: Stacy Schaffer TikTok: authorstacyschaffer ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this fascinating and eye-opening episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Brenda Wollenberg and Alicia Mazari-Andersen for a powerful conversation about epigenetics — and why your health is far more within your control than you've been led to believe. We explore the truth about gene expression and how factors like stress, nutrition, sleep, and environmental toxins can "switch on" or "switch off" certain health outcomes. This conversation challenges the idea that your genetics are fixed and instead offers a far more empowering perspective on women's health, hormones, and midlife wellbeing. Together, we dive into how epigenetics plays a role in common women's health challenges — from hormone imbalances and fertility issues to menopause symptoms — and why a personalised, root-cause approach is essential in today's increasingly complex health landscape. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Instagram: www.instagram.com/inbalancelm  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/InBalanceLMWellness/ Website: https://www.inbalancelm.com/  https://www.inbalancelm.com/self-check   ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this deeply reflective episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Amy D'Agrosa for a conversation about identity, purpose, and navigating the profound transitions of midlife. We explore the question so many women quietly ask themselves — "Who am I now?" — as they move through perimenopause, empty nesting, career shifts, and personal reinvention. Amy shares how her own experience of midlife change led her to explore a more integrated, mind-body-spirit approach to coaching, supporting women to reconnect with their inner wisdom and redefine their next chapter. Together, we unpack the difference between reacting to life and consciously responding, the role of subconscious beliefs in shaping our identity, and why this stage of life is not a crisis — but an invitation. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.pathwaystopurposecoaching.com/ https://open.spotify.com/show/1d6ZPNZMYmaLsCldevEJfs https://www.instagram.com/pathways.to.purpose.lifecoach/   ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/ ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120 🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this essential episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by fertility awareness educator Emma Goff for a powerful conversation about menstrual cycles, body literacy, and why so many women don't truly understand how their bodies work. We explore the reality that most women are taught very little about their cycles beyond periods and pregnancy — leaving them disconnected from their bodies and often reliant on incomplete or misleading information. Emma breaks down the biology of the menstrual cycle in a clear and accessible way, from ovulation patterns to fertility windows, while also highlighting how stress, lifestyle, and hormonal contraception can impact reproductive health. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.instagram.com/cyclicaldoula https://emmamma.com/masterclass https://open.spotify.com/show/6EmzSJ763NRrDxKChFtibY ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this powerful and deeply needed episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Elena Riu for a conversation about women's health education — and the critical gaps that still exist across generations. We explore how so many women move through life without truly understanding their bodies — from menstrual cycles and ovulation to contraception, perimenopause, and menopause. Elena shares her work in body literacy and highlights how early experiences with menstruation shape a woman's relationship with her body for decades to come. Together, we unpack the impact of cultural conditioning, medical systems that treat the body in isolation, and the over-reliance on quick fixes like the contraceptive pill — often without informed consent or true understanding. This conversation is an invitation to reconnect with the body, to bring awareness back to natural rhythms, and to start having the conversations that were never had — especially with the next generation. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Book:  https://elenariu.co.uk/book   Menstrual tracking bracelet: https://elenariu.co.uk/moon-girl-menstrual-tracking-bracelet/   My Dear Self Postcards: https://elenariu.co.uk/om-yoga-show/ The Embodied Musician / Performer: Yoga & Breathwork For Musicians Online: https://elenariu.co.uk/the-embodied-pianist-musician-oline/ ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this powerful and deeply honest episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Mandy Merrifield for a conversation about identity, resilience, and what it really takes to rebuild your life on your own terms. Mandy shares her journey from addiction, financial struggle, and personal trauma to becoming a coach who supports women in midlife to reconnect with their values, rebuild confidence, and make aligned choices. We explore how societal expectations — the "fairy tale" narratives we've been sold — shape the way women live, and why so many find themselves questioning everything in their 30s, 40s, and beyond. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.mandymerrifield.org/ https://www.facebook.com/mandy.merrifield74 https://www.instagram.com/itsmandymerrifield/   ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this expansive and thought-provoking episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Sarah Leather, business coach and former naturopath for a conversation that bridges menopause, mindset, identity, and how women lead themselves in midlife. Sarah shares her personal journey through menopause — including unexpected physical and emotional challenges — alongside her evolution from working in women's health to coaching women in mid to later life. Together, we explore how menopause is often framed as something to "fix," rather than a powerful transition to understand, honour, and grow through. We also unpack the increasing noise in the menopause and coaching space, the pressure to find quick solutions, and the importance of stepping out of constant overthinking to reconnect with intuition, clarity, and inspired action. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.facebook.com/sarah.leather2 https://thesarahleather.com/ https://thesarahleather.com/podcast/ ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this essential episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by leading gynecologist and menopause expert Dr. Heather Currie, trustee and past chair of the British Menopause Society and founder of Menopause Matters. Together, we explore the history of menopause care — from the widespread use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in the 1980s and 1990s, to the dramatic decline following the Women's Health Initiative study, and now the modern resurgence of menopause awareness. We discuss the real risks and benefits of HRT, the dangers of oversimplified messaging, the variability in women's menopausal experiences, why menopause treatment should never be a blanket approach and the importance of lifestyle factors alongside medical treatment.  Dr. Heather brings decades of clinical experience and research insight to this conversation, helping women cut through the noise and make informed, individualised decisions. 🌿🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/heather-currie-mbe-21465325/ ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

In this powerful episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by trauma-aware yoga instructor Michelle for an honest conversation about chronic stress, nervous system regulation, and why so many women are unknowingly living in "survival mode." We explore how perimenopause, menopause, motherhood, career pressure, and societal expectations combine to keep women in a constant state of hypervigilance — snapping at small things, preparing for worst-case scenarios, and feeling overwhelmed by everyday life. Michelle shares her personal journey from panic attacks and anxiety to becoming a trauma-informed yoga teacher, and explains how simple, accessible yoga and mindfulness practices can help women regulate their nervous systems, build resilience, and reconnect with self-trust. In this episode we discuss what "survival mode" really looks like in modern women's lives and the hidden signs of nervous system dysregulation. We look at the connection between chronic stress, reactivity, menopause and hormonal shifts, how trauma-aware yoga supports emotional regulation and the importance of simple breathwork and grounding techniques to calm anxiety. 🌿🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.facebook.com/balancedyogaTN/      https://www.instagram.com/balancedyogatn/   https://www.balancedyogatn.com/webinar-nervoussystemquiz ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this insightful episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by homeopath and women's health practitioner Caroline Gaskin for a nuanced conversation about menopause care, hormone balance, and the evolving landscape of women's health. As menopause becomes more visible — and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) increasingly positioned as a first-line solution — we explore what may be getting lost in the conversation. Caroline shares her 25+ years of experience supporting women through perimenopause and menopause using personalised, integrative approaches that combine homeopathy, nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and holistic assessment. We discuss why a detailed health history matters, how menstrual patterns offer powerful diagnostic clues, and why menopause support should go far beyond symptom suppression.  In this episode we discuss the changing menopause narrative and the rise of HRT as first-line treatment, the impact of estrogen dominance, environmental toxins, ultra-processed foods,  stress, trauma, and lifestyle on menstrual and menopausal symptoms. WE also look at natural menopause management strategies, including magnesium, essential fatty acids, and adaptogens   🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://carolinegaskin.co.uk/ https://www.instagram.com/the_menopause_homeopath/ https://www.youtube.com/@carolinegaskinhealth1250 https://www.linkedin.com/in/caroline-gaskin-6b522622/ ✨ Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this powerful and deeply honest episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by body confidence coach and healing boudoir photographer Rebecca Sigala for a conversation about body image, identity, and self-worth. We explore how women's relationships with their bodies are shaped long before midlife — through subtle messaging, family dynamics, societal standards, and cultural conditioning. Rebecca shares how her work evolved from boudoir photography into transformational coaching, helping women move beyond surface-level confidence into genuine self-trust and embodied self-acceptance. This conversation goes far beyond appearance. It's about how women disconnect from their bodies, how weight becomes entangled with worth, and how we can teach the next generation of girls that their value was never conditional. In this episode we discuss what body image really means, how early experiences shape women's relationship with their bodies and the  hidden impact of indirect body shaming and cultural messaging.   If you've ever struggled with body image, questioned your confidence, or wondered how to feel at home in your body again — this episode is for you. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: www.instagram.com/rebeccasigalastudio   https://rebeccasigala.mykajabi.com/getstarted-selfie   ✨  Connect with Jacqueline Rose 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   Follow Me: 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🌐 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🏷️ Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🔔 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this thought-provoking episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Joyce Harper for an honest, evidence-informed conversation about women's reproductive health, menopause, and the growing confusion surrounding hormone therapy. We explore why women's health education has historically been incomplete, why men and boys must be included in these conversations, and how misinformation — even from trusted institutions — is shaping how women view their bodies and menopause itself. Together, we challenge the idea that menopause is a disease to be fixed and unpack what the research really says about hormone replacement therapy, brain health, heart health, and long-term wellbeing. We explore  comprehensive education about women's reproductive health still falls short, the explosion of menopause misinformation online and on social media and what the research actually says about hormone replacement therapy (HRT). In this episode we talk about Menopause is not a disease — and shouldn't be treated like one Why hormone therapy works for some women but not all The dangers of fear-based menopause messaging Why lifestyle factors matter more than we're led to believe How women can age, thrive, and flourish without over-medicalisation Environmental toxins, ultra-processed foods, and women's long-term health This episode invites women to step back from fear-based narratives and reclaim trust in their bodies, while focusing on the proven lifestyle foundations that support health, vitality, and longevity.   🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://joyceharper.com/ ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this honest and deeply human episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Bazy Rubin for a conversation about the realities of modern motherhood — the parts we live through quietly, but rarely speak about out loud. Bazy shares her journey as a mother of four, entrepreneur, and often solo parent, navigating mental health, miscarriage, career pivots, and the constant pressure to "hold it all together." We talk openly about grief, resilience, self-care, and why women need spaces where real stories can be shared without shame or perfection. In this episode we discuss the emotional realities of motherhood that often go unspoken, Solo parenting, mental load, and managing expectations, navigating miscarriage and the lack of education and support women receive and why asking for help is not weakness  it's leadership. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.instagram.com/bazyrubin   https://www.facebook.com/bazyrubin   ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this powerful and necessary episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by AdeBukola Bukky Ayoade for an honest conversation about menopause, race, health equity, and the urgent need for systemic change. While the menopause conversation has become more visible, Bukky brings a critical perspective that is still largely missing: menopause is not universal. Black women, for example, often experience menopause earlier, face more intense psychological symptoms, and are significantly underrepresented in research and clinical guidelines. Together, we explore how workplace policy, healthcare systems, research bias, and legislation intersect with women's lived experiences — particularly for women of colour. From the NHS's national menopause strategy to the gaps in HRT research, this episode challenges the mainstream menopause narrative and asks a bigger question: Who is menopause care really being designed for?   🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vibrantmidlifebukky https://www.facebook.com/vibrantmidlife https://www.vibrantmidlife.com/   ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this deeply relatable episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by coach, movement facilitator, and former corporate high-flyer Sabrina for an honest conversation about success, identity, and what happens when the life you worked so hard for no longer fits. Sabrina shares her personal journey of leaving a high-paying corporate career in her 30s after feeling disconnected, unfulfilled, and out of alignment — and how rediscovering movement, dance, and coaching helped her reconnect with herself and support other women navigating similar crossroads. Together, we explore how high-achieving women are often conditioned to follow a narrow definition of success, why confidence and self-trust erode during transitions, and how movement, emotional awareness, and mindset work can help women navigate change — especially during perimenopause, career shifts, and identity evolution.   This episode is a powerful reminder that you don't need to have everything figured out to move forward — and that success isn't about how your life looks, but how it feels. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Learn more about Sabrina's work: https://sabrinadelduca.com/ Follow Sabrina on Instagram: @DuchessSabrina ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this insightful episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Dr. Anna Garrett, pharmacist, menopause educator, and author, for an honest and necessary conversation about the modern menopause landscape. She has been educating women about perimenopause and menopause long before the topic became mainstream and is a trusted voice in helping women navigate hormone therapy, testing, and lifestyle interventions. With menopause information now everywhere — from social media to podcasts to coaching programs — women are more informed than ever before. But is this explosion of information actually serving women's health? Together, we unpack what has changed in women's health over the past decade, where the system is still falling short, and how women can better navigate hormone therapy, testing, and lifestyle strategies to support bone, brain, and heart health throughout midlife and beyond.  This episode brings clarity to a noisy conversation and offers practical guidance for women who want to advocate for themselves and make informed, personalised healthcare decisions.   🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://drannagarrett.com/ https://www.facebook.com/drannagarrett https://www.instagram.com/drannagarrett/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/annagarrett https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCibutKDmgn_Mkyr55WVenWw   Access Dr Anna's Book https://drannagarrett.com/perimenopause-book/ ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/    

In this deeply reflective and empowering episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by women's empowerment mentor Angela Bennett for a conversation about reclaiming women's identity, voice, and innate power — across generations. Together, we explore how societal conditioning and patriarchal systems quietly shape women's beliefs about who they are allowed to be, how loudly they are allowed to speak, and how much space they are allowed to take up. Angela shares her work supporting women to remember who they were before they were told to be smaller, quieter, or more agreeable — and why this remembering is essential not just for us, but for our daughters. This episode weaves together themes of intergenerational healing, motherhood, leadership, assertiveness, and emotional expression, offering a powerful invitation for women to speak their truth without fear, guilt, or apology. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.facebook.com/angela.bennett.18847/ @angelaluciabennett   https://www.facebook.com/aligned.livingcoach/ @alignedlivingcoaching ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this powerful and eye-opening episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by women's health coach and menopause specialist Heather McCarel for a deep conversation about menstrual cycle awareness, hormonal health, and what it truly means to work with the female body — not against it. Together, we explore why understanding the menstrual cycle matters at every stage of life, how ovulation impacts overall health far beyond fertility, and why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies — especially during perimenopause and menopause.

What happens when menopause isn't a natural transition — but a medically-induced one overnight?

In this powerful and validating conversation, menopause educator and coach Jacqueline Rose is joined by Jennifer, a nervous system whisperer and venting coach, to unpack why so many women — especially in midlife — feel emotionally overwhelmed, exhausted, and constantly "on edge." Together, they explore how societal expectations around productivity, emotional suppression, and femininity have shaped women's stress responses — and why menopause often amplifies what has been building for decades. This episode is a compassionate invitation to slow down, listen to your body, and discover practical, nervous-system-friendly tools to regulate emotions, reduce stress, and reclaim softness without guilt. 🎧 In This Episode, We Discuss: Why menopause is often the moment women can no longer ignore emotional overload How chronic stress and emotional suppression dysregulate the nervous system The hidden cost of multitasking and wearing stress as a badge of honour Why anger is often a symptom — not the root — of emotional distress The importance of creating emotional safety rather than "pushing through" How breathwork, EFT tapping, NLP, and nervous system awareness can support emotional regulation Why femininity, softness, and rest are strengths — not weaknesses What Jennifer wants her daughters (and all women) to know about emotional expression and self-worth 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jgrovewellness Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jgrovewellness LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jgrovewellness Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/jgrovewellness Website: https://www.jgrovewellness.com   Burnout Self-Care Assessment Quiz: https://d1vjjcws201.typeform.com/to/MqID9Mhv ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this powerful and eye-opening episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline sits down with Claudia Kroon, PMDD coach, mother, and advocate, to uncover the truth about Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)—a severe and often misunderstood hormonal condition that affects millions of women worldwide. After the birth of her son, Claudia's life was turned upside down by symptoms she couldn't explain—crippling anxiety, depression, rage, and burnout. What she later discovered was PMDD, a disorder that takes the hormonal fluctuations of the menstrual cycle and turns them into an emotional rollercoaster. Together, Jacqueline and Claudia explore the difference between PMS and PMDD, the misdiagnoses women often face, and the frustrating lack of understanding in mainstream medicine. Claudia shares her hard-earned insights on cycle tracking, lifestyle management, and self-advocacy—reminding listeners that awareness and understanding are the first steps toward healing. In This Episode we discover: The difference between PMS and PMDD, and why PMDD is not "just bad PMS" How PMDD is a neurological reaction to hormonal changes—not a hormone imbalance Why it takes an average of 12 years and six practitioners for many women to receive an accurate diagnosis How lifestyle strategies like cycle tracking, nutrition, and stress management can help improve symptoms The emotional toll of living with PMDD—and the empowerment that comes from understanding it The importance of educating girls and women about their cycles from an early age This episode is for every woman who's ever felt "not herself" for part of the month, for mothers raising daughters, and for health practitioners seeking to understand the deeper layers of women's hormonal health.  🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.instagram.com/claudiakroon.mentoring/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/momvillageforoverwhelmedmoms https://claudiakroon.com/selfcareplan/   ✨ Let's Stay Connected:  📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

In this inspiring and wisdom-filled episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline sits down with Pat Duckworth, a renowned menopause expert, author, and advocate for women's health and workplace well-being. Together, they reflect on how the menopause conversation has evolved — from silence and stigma to awareness and empowerment — and what still needs to change. Pat, who first joined Jacqueline years ago for her Menopause Summit, returns to share her insights on hormone therapy, research limitations, and how women can take charge of their own menopause journey. Their discussion spans from HRT and scientific nuance to the rise of menopause-friendly workplaces, and the importance of open, agenda-free spaces for women to share their experiences. Pat and Jacqueline also celebrate how far the conversation has come — and how collective wisdom, curiosity, and courage are reshaping the midlife experience for future generations.   In this episode we explore: Why the menopause conversation is shifting — and what we've learned from decades of silence. The complexities of HRT research and why there's no one-size-fits-all approach. How women can become better informed and more confident advocates for their own health. The rise of menopause cafés and community spaces that offer support without agenda or judgment. How neurodivergence (ADHD, autism, etc.) is being increasingly recognised in midlife women. The growing movement for menopause awareness in the workplace and what real change looks like. Pat's timeless message for the next generation: embrace this life stage, get educated, and take ownership of your choices. This is a heartfelt and deeply practical episode about education, self-advocacy, and redefining what it means to thrive through menopause and beyond. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.patduckworth.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/patduckworth/ https://www.instagram.com/patduckworth1 https://www.facebook.com/pat.duckworth2/   ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this honest and myth-busting episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline sits down with Esther Donoff, a nutritional therapist with decades of experience helping women rebuild healthy, sustainable relationships with food. Together, they explore the shifting landscape of nutrition advice — from the low-fat craze of the 80s and 90s to today's obsession with "superfoods" and weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. Esther shares her grounded, science-based approach to eating that celebrates balance, nourishment, and the individuality of each woman's body. The conversation moves beyond calorie counting and diet labels, diving into what it truly means to eat for health, energy, and longevity — especially during perimenopause and menopause. Esther and Jacqueline also address the cultural pendulum swing from body positivity back to body comparison, exploring how we can support younger generations in cultivating body confidence rooted in self-awareness, not social media ideals. We explore in this episode: How nutrition advice has evolved and why the low-fat diet trend did more harm than good. The crucial role of healthy fats for brain health, hormone balance, and cellular function. Why variety and not restriction is the foundation of a truly healthy diet. The truth about GLP-1 weight-loss medications (like Ozempic): what they can and can't do. The importance of empathy and understanding when discussing body weight and medical treatments. Practical, real-world nutrition tips for busy midlife women — including store cupboard shortcuts and supplement essentials. How to model body acceptance and balance for the next generation. This conversation  is a refreshing reminder that nutrition isn't about perfection it's about connection: to your body, your food, and your life. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.facebook.com/estherdonoffnutrition https://www.linkedin.com/in/esther-donoff/ www.estherdonoff.com   - go to my website for a free e-book   ✨ Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

In this powerful episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline sits  down with Sandra Wint, a spiritual mentor and women's wellness practitioner, for a deeply honest conversation about intergenerational healing, the mother-daughter relationship, and the legacy of womanhood we all carry. Together, we explore how societal expectations, inherited beliefs, and personal experiences shape the way women mother — and how daughters unconsciously inherit both the strengths and struggles of the generations before them. Sandra introduces the concept of "daughtering" as a way of reclaiming agency and self-awareness within the maternal lineage, inviting us to view our stories through compassion rather than criticism. We also discuss the evolving role of motherhood, the ongoing pressures women face in balancing career, home, and self, and how midlife offers a unique opportunity to rewrite these narratives. Our conversation touches on the real, lived experiences of women today — from the spiritual to the social, from menopause to motherhood, from inner work to world events — including how the recent conflicts in Israel have reshaped family dynamics and revealed new models of shared responsibility. In this episode we explore: The concept of "daughtering" — and how shifting focus from the mother wound to the daughter's experience transforms generational healing. The unseen impact of societal and cultural expectations on how women mother — and how daughters internalize these patterns. How generational trauma and epigenetics influence women's health, relationships, and identity. The changing nature of mother-daughter relationships as both age and evolve. Why self-compassion and self-leadership are essential in healing intergenerational cycles. The connection between menopause, identity, and womanhood as a rite of passage. Reflections on how recent conflicts in Israel are reshaping family roles, resilience, and women's leadership in the home. This is a deeply human episode — about remembering, reparenting, and reclaiming what it means to belong to a lineage of women. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandrabwint/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/meherusllc/ ✨ Let's Stay Connected:  📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

In this episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline talks with Vanesa Nicolosi, a women's personal trainer, who is on a mission to help women redefine what fitness means — especially in midlife and beyond. Vanesa's approach is refreshingly different. She doesn't train women to look a certain way — she trains them to move better, feel stronger, and age with confidence. Together, we explore how strength training supports healthy aging, prevents injury, improves bone and joint health, and empowers women to stay active, independent, and pain-free as they move through life. This conversation challenges the myths that have long kept women out of the weight room. From the fear of "getting bulky" to the belief that it's too late to start, Vanesa explains why every woman, at any age, can benefit from strength training. We also talk about the emotional side of fitness — self-compassion, body image, and how social media's "skinny ideal" is shaping a new generation's view of health. Vanesa's philosophy is simple but profound: train because you love your body, not because you hate it. We explore in this episode: Why strength training is essential for women's long-term health, energy, and independence. How to start small and build confidence through home-based or low-equipment workouts. The difference between exercise and daily movement — and why both matter for healthy aging. How to challenge body image myths and build self-esteem through movement. Why muscle is protective, not masculine — and how it supports metabolism, joints, and bones. How to make exercise a sustainable lifestyle, not a punishment or short-term goal. The importance of positive role models and teaching younger women to value strength over thinness. Vanesa's message is one of empowerment and possibility. Strength training isn't about achieving a look — it's about creating a life of freedom, vitality, and resilience. Whether you're just starting out or looking to reclaim your strength in midlife, this conversation will inspire you to move with purpose and train with self-love. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.growstrongher.com/ https://www.instagram.com/growstrongherwithme   ✨ Let's Stay Connected:  📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

In this thought-provoking episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I am joined by author, transformative coach, and women's health advocate Tania Elfersy. Together, they unpack the radical idea that menopause is not a deficiency disease to be "fixed" but a natural rite of passage that carries its own wisdom—if only we learn to listen. Tania shares her personal journey through perimenopause, where she went from feeling like she was "falling apart" at 43 to experiencing spontaneous healing after discovering the Three Principles of Innate Health. She invites us to see our symptoms not as malfunctions, but as the body's way of communicating imbalance. The conversation challenges the dominant narrative around HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)—from flawed research to the risks of long-term use—and explores why lifestyle, stress, and mindset may be more powerful allies than medication alone. Jacqueline and Tania also dive into the cultural roots of how women's health has been pathologized, the protective role of midlife weight gain, and the importance of teaching younger generations to trust their bodies. In this episode we explore:: Why menopause is a rite of passage, not a medical problem to "fix." How symptoms are messages from the body — and what happens when we learn to listen. The hidden role of stress in shaping women's health across life stages. Why much of today's HRT research doesn't reflect the reality of natural menopause. The protective wisdom behind midlife weight gain and what it means for long-term health. How teaching younger women to trust their bodies can prevent struggles later in life.  This episode is both a challenge to outdated medical models and a call to embrace body wisdom, intuition, and holistic approaches to women's health. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://www.thewiserwoman.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TheWiserWoman https://www.linkedin.com/in/taniaelfersy/   ✨ Let's Stay Connected:  📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

In this deeply moving episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline Rose sits down with Jessa Reynolds, who shares her powerful story of living with endometriosis. From her first symptoms at age 11 to a delayed diagnosis 17 years later, Jessa reveals the physical, emotional, and mental toll of this misunderstood condition. Together, they explore the systemic failures in women's healthcare—from dismissive doctors to barriers in accessing treatment—and the life-altering decisions many women face, such as multiple surgeries or hysterectomy. Jessa's story sheds light on the urgent need for better education, advocacy, and compassionate care for women with endometriosis. This conversation is not only about struggle but also about strength: the importance of support systems, the power of self-advocacy, and the resilience it takes to live with a condition that is so often overlooked. In this episode we explore: 🌸 A delayed diagnosis – Jessa shares her 17-year journey from first symptoms at age 11 to finally being diagnosed at 28. 🌸 The silent toll of endometriosis – how pain extends beyond reproductive organs, affecting the whole body and daily life. 🌸 Healthcare dismissal and advocacy – the role of her mother, support groups, and the fight to be believed. 🌸 Treatment challenges – from excision surgery to hysterectomy, and the barriers women face in accessing appropriate care. 🌸 Empowerment and resilience – Jessa's message on trusting your intuition, finding community, and never diminishing your pain.

What if menopause wasn't something to fear — but an invitation to clarity, strength, and renewal? In this episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, Jacqueline is joined  by Rachel Lankester, founder of MenoClarity and host of Magnificent Midlife, for a deeply honest conversation about how we can transform the way we think and talk about menopause. Rachel shares her personal experience of early menopause at 41 — and how what she later discovered about perimenopause changed everything. Together, we unpack the commercialization of menopause, the over-medicalization of women's health, and the urgent need for accurate, agenda-free information. This episode is both a reality check and a reframe. We talk about how modern culture often sells fear and dependency, when what women really need is trust, education, and support to navigate this natural life stage. From hormone therapy myths to the power of lifestyle choices, and from cultural ageism to body wisdom — this is the conversation every woman deserves to hear.   In this episode we explore: Why menopause is not an illness but a natural life transition — and why language matters. The truth about HRT — what research actually says and why it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. How stress, lifestyle, and diet profoundly shape the menopausal experience. The hidden role of ageism and cultural attitudes in how society views older women. Why misinformation and marketing are distorting the menopause conversation. What the world's Blue Zones can teach us about healthy aging, connection, and longevity. How trusting your body can lead to better health outcomes than fear-based fixes. This conversation is for every woman who's ever questioned the narrative — and for every daughter who deserves a better one. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: https://magnificentmidlife.com/ https://magnificentmidlife.com/podcast/ https://www.facebook.com/magnificentmidlife https://www.linkedin.com/in/rachellankester/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEteu6Z2mW1z1wnHiVB08uw?view_as=subscriber      🔗 Let's Stay Connected:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram   🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  ▶️ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@jacquelinerosehealth 🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/

In this episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Stasha Washburn, period coach, founder of Period Coaching School and passionate advocate for transforming how we understand and relate to our menstrual cycles. Together, we dive into the power of the menstrual cycle as a vital sign of health, the overlooked role of ovulation, and the need to challenge conventional approaches to women's health—particularly the overprescription of hormonal birth control. Stasha invites us to see the menstrual cycle not as a burden, but as an asset that can guide self-care, energy, and resilience through every phase of life, including perimenopause. In this episode we explore: 🌸 Cycle education from the start — why teaching girls to chart their cycles before their first period builds lifelong body awareness. 🌸 Ovulation as a cornerstone of health — the only natural source of progesterone, protecting bone, brain, heart, and mood. 🌸 The pill problem — how hormonal birth control shuts down ovulation, disrupts the gut microbiome, and carries long-term risks rarely discussed. 🌸 Perimenopause as an opportunity — why this is the most critical time to build strength, bone density, and rhythms that carry you into postmenopause. 🌸 The cycle as an ally — using each phase's unique hormonal state to align lifestyle, energy, and self-care. 🌸 Changing the narrative — from stigma and silence to celebration, empowerment, and informed decision-making. Stasha and I also address the ongoing gaps in women's healthcare and research, the contradictions in how synthetic hormones are prescribed, and the importance of giving the next generation of women better tools and knowledge to thrive.

In this episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Jackie Lynch, leading menopause educator, nutritionist, author, and women's health specialist with over 15 years of experience supporting women through perimenopause and menopause. Jackie is passionate about empowering women with the knowledge and tools they need to make confident choices about their health, and she brings a refreshingly practical and down-to-earth perspective to a space that is often full of noise, fear-mongering, and misinformation. Together, we dive into the evolving conversation around menopause, from the growing mainstream awareness to the challenges of commercialization and the spread of misleading "menopause-branded" products. Jackie reminds us why personalized approaches matter and how lifestyle choices can be just as impactful as medical interventions. We also unpack the power of nutrition and self-care in midlife, with Jackie sharing practical strategies to support bone health, manage symptoms and strengthen resilience. From protein-rich meals to hydration, stress management and workplace wellbeing, this conversation is a grounded reminder that menopause doesn't have to be a struggle — it can be a powerful invitation to take ownership of your health and shift the way we think about aging.

Too many women are told their symptoms are "normal," dismissed, or left without answers. In this powerful conversation with Amy and Heidi Andrews, Founders of The Khush Place, we explore the realities of living with undiagnosed PCOS, endometriosis, the heartbreaking IVF rollercoaster and the devastating impact of medical gaslighting in women's healthcare. You'll hear their first-hand experiences of what it's like to be ignored by specialists, misdiagnosed for over a decade and repeatedly told that your pain and anxiety are "just in your head." These experiences are not from the 1970s — they are happening today, in modern healthcare systems across Australia and beyond. Their online platform and in-person events across Australia give women the space to connect, share openly, and finally feel validated.  The Kush Place's goal is to lead a new conversation around hormones, cycles, and women's health that medical systems often neglect. In this episode we explore: Why women's pain is still dismissed in medicine The shocking gap in knowledge around women's hormones, cycles, and reproductive health How functional and integrative medicine offer a way forward by looking at root causes, not just symptoms How personal struggles with IVF and anxiety sparked the creation of The Kush Place Why Balance Me is the first supplement in Australia to target emotional, metabolic, and hormonal health — all in one This episode is not just about frustration, feeling dismissed, unseen, or gaslit by the healthcare system. It's a powerful conversation about reclaiming the narrative around periods, hormones and women's health. It's about ending the silence and saying: this is not normal and you deserve better care. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please follow me, subscribe, rate and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Follow The Kush Place https://www.instagram.com/the.khush.place/ https://www.facebook.com/the.khush.place/ Downloadable E-book: https://thekhushplace.com/products/happy-hormones-ebook-managing-premenstrual-syndrome-a-comprehensive-guide-to-relief Let's Stay Connected: 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 📌 Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  🛜 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120/ 🗨️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I'm joined by Stephanie Singh, a certified menstrual health coach and holistic nutritionist. Together, we dive deep into the often-overlooked realities of women's hormonal health, from puberty through perimenopause and beyond. Stephanie shares her personal journey with health challenges that led her to explore women's physiology and the root causes of hormonal imbalances. Our conversation uncovers how conditions like heavy or painful periods, fibroids, PCOS, endometriosis and estrogen dominance are understood by health care practitioners and relate to hormonal imbalances. In this episode we explore: 🌸 Estrogen dominance explained — what it looks like, how it shows up at different life stages, and why it matters. 🌸 The liver's role in hormone health — why supporting liver function is essential for balanced estrogen metabolism. 🌸 Gut health, antibiotics & the pill — how past choices and generational medical practices impact women's hormone health today. 🌸 The limitations of conventional treatments — and how women can be proactive in asking questions, seeking deeper answers, and avoiding "quick fix" approaches like birth control as the only solution. 🌸 Taking ownership of your health — Stephanie's five pillars: nutrition, gut health, liver support, nervous system care, and physical movement. 🌸 Empowering the next generation — how Stephanie is opening up conversations with her 12-year-old daughter about hormones, menstruation, and body literacy. This is a powerful, practical conversation about reclaiming agency over our bodies and equipping the next generation with knowledge, confidence, and celebration—not fear—around women's health. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations. ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Follow Stephanie Singh on  Instagram:   https://www.instagram.com/stephanie.singh.balancedhealth/  Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/stephanie.singh.balancedhealth ________________________________________ 🔗 Let's Stay Connected: 📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 💜Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  🛜 LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120   🗨️ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

In this episode of Things I Want My Daughters to Know, I sit down with Fiona Clark, a women's health physiotherapist, menopause movement specialist, and author of MenoWars. Together, we explore the realities of how menopause impacts the body—not just hormonally, but physically and functionally—and why the current healthcare system often leaves women without the answers and support they need. Fiona shares her mission to challenge the gaps in women's healthcare, where menopause is still too often misunderstood, dismissed, or oversimplified. Through her work and her book MenoWars, she brings clarity, compassion, and empowerment to women navigating this stage of life. In this episode we explore: ·        🌸 How menopause changes the body's relationship with movement, energy, and recovery. ·        🌸 Why pelvic floor health matters for every woman—and how it connects to confidence, vitality, and long-term health. ·        🌸 The myths around exercise in midlife, and why "pushing harder" isn't always the answer. ·        🌸 The role of movement as medicine—supporting mood, bone health, cardiovascular function, and nervous system regulation. ·        🌸 The challenges of the conventional medical system—why women are often offered quick fixes rather than true understanding, and how we can change the conversation. ·        🌸 Fiona's vision for empowering women to understand and honor their bodies, rather than seeing them as "failing" in midlife. This is a conversation that reframes movement as a source of empowerment, not pressure—while also shining a light on the urgent need for better menopause education and support in healthcare. 🎙️ If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review the podcast—it helps more women and practitioners find these conversations.   ✨ Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Get Fiona Clark's book MenoWars →  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Menowars-menopauses-horribly-navigate-through/dp/1399827340/ref=sr_1_3?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.zuqwgmCNQabAgwT3F9lfNtYd9gNKVxMxru_Tqttipamv7ExqOVBnkSFx7hs96XmxNi2kOH0nWbBTNyd5274bYP6wiQXqTFTchvKla6_trorj9QwKOPil00Y1CAU4wh_9mTbZGY8LUIhVut63gmSjvVavkMTpsyaRf6jm5IUSCEbBc3_Ii0i1F8uKn6lvebukWwL2vKxHFvIyu-HgJ-ODJSR4W--kUUYJ1m8CxxqJvIU.PMF_xGKYLdo63MUdfUJssAPdVWIT7hSjBUM1K3dMkUk&dib_tag=se&qid=1758895963&refinements=p_27%3AFiona+Clark&s=books&sr=1-3 Follow Fiona Clark:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fiona_clark_writes/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@fiona_clark_writes LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fiona-clark-8826929/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FionaClarkWrites/ Genius link: https://my.geniuslink.com/links/summary/?code=DjR3E·           Connect with Jacqueline Rose:   📌 Join my Newsletter: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1225699/160641692811134066/share 📌 Learn more about my Menopause Informed Training Program: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/mitprogram 🖥️ Website: https://www.jacquelinerosehealth.com/  🛜 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinerose-womenshealth/ 🔅 Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/theyogaroom120/ 🗨️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacquelinerose_womenshealth/  

Welcome to Things I Want My Daughters to Know—the women's health podcast redefining midlife through honest, unfiltered conversations. I'm Jacqueline Rose, a Menopause Educator and Coach, passionate about supporting women on their menopause and midlife journey. Over the years, I've seen too many women dismissed, misdiagnosed, or left without answers when it comes to their health. The truth is: our medical system wasn't built with women's bodies in mind. Symptoms get overlooked, concerns are minimized, and so many of us are left believing we just have to "put up with it." This podcast was born from my vision to change that. To shine a light on the gaps in conventional healthcare, to challenge outdated narratives, and to create the kind of open, honest conversations that women have been missing for far too long. Because women deserve better—a better health conversation, better support, and better access to knowledge that can truly transform the way we live and thrive at all stages of life. Each week, I'll sit down with leading experts and real women to share their stories, bust health myths, and uncover the truth about women's health—from PMS to perimenopause, menopause to postmenopause, hormones, aging, and everything in between. Together, we'll share evidence-informed strategies and practical tools to help you feel more connected to your body, empowered in your choices, and confident at every stage of your life. This podcast is not just about sharing information—it's about empowering you with women's wisdom and creating intergenerational conversations between mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends.

In the first episode of the Things I want my Daughters to Know podcast, Jacqueline is joined by her 3 daughters to discuss what they know and understand about women's health having a mother who works in the field – and works from the family dining room table, so her kids hear all her conversations! Orli, Keren and Eliya share their own health experiences, how having a mother in the women's health space has impacted them and their own health journeys, what they know about women's health and how it compares to what their friends know, what their friends are talking about and what their friends SHOULD be talking about when it comes to health, periods, pregnancy and more. This episode sets the stage for future episodes in the podcast – having open and honest intergenerational conversations on women's health issues to bust the myths that are still present in our society, share a different approach to women's health issues, empower and support women who are struggling with lack of information, professional care and feel alone in their journey, and show that there is a different way to feel amazing at all stages of life, especially in midlife and beyond!
