Dr.Louise Newson Breaks Down The Menopause & Lisa Snowdon Shares Her Experience | This Morning The menopause is one of the biggest taboos left to tackle, with nearly half of women in the UK currently suffering with debilitating symptoms and struggling ...

I can vividly remember a day in my corporate life where I sat in a board room surrounded by colleagues and visiting out of town management. To this day it still gives me butterflies in my tummy when I think of it - it really hit my confidence and my self esteem.😩

I was presenting facts and figures etc for my team...the figures that were in my head (they normally rolled off my tongue) decided to abandon ship and head straight for the window. I felt struck by panic...it was like I froze completely. My mind clouded by anxiety and fear.

The worst part was someone else in the management team had to answer for me...can you imagine. Ohhh the shame of that. My tummy is swirling madly even as I write this email and that was 8 years ago!

Brain fog, memory, concentration, putting keys in the fridge, I heard from a woman who put carrots in the tumbler drier...brain fog is very real and VERY scary.😳

It can feel like your losing your mind, you can be hit by the fear of early onset dementia and alzheimers

Unless you are aware this is one of the most common symptoms of menopause and according to my recent survey the most challenging symptom.

💞I don’t want you to feel like I did in that meeting…..I want you to understand why these symptoms happen and most importantly how you can support yourself in all aspects of your life.

💕I know my mission is to help people understand menopause. I love being able to help others.

💞And the best way I can do this is share what I have learned along the way and what I am still researching and learning daily! The easiest way to do that is share, as I have been doing over the last few years.

➡️Now I feel I need to get more specific and so I have a targeted approach to empower you with knowledge to thrive through these years and take the bull by the horns so to speak in relation to any symptoms you feel at any stage in the journey.

This brought me to build an online course ..but an interactive one and in Lesson 2 I will be delving more into brain fog and sharing with you the top tips I have learnt that will support you through this foggy symptom.

Next week I’ll be sending emails with details about the Thrive Through The Menopause course so keep your eyes peeled.🙏

Happy New Year everyone. Didn't realise that there are over 400 followers on this page!
Hope you are all enjoying Women's Christmas...😀
I haven't posted in a while, I haven't had time to focus on this page but for 2022 I'm planning to be more active here.

So interaction leads to activity...I've had some ladies asking about headaches...sinus issues/problems...anyone out there got any advice?

Please feel free to comment!

Hey ladies, I haven't posted in a while...but I can see that some ladies are sending me DMs and maybe you can offer some help....like this question:
