On this episode, my guest Gail Winstanley shares her story of dependence on alcohol to cope with a traumatic childhood sexual assault and the depressing menopausal symptoms. It took her a shift in her mindset and self talk therapy to overcome and conquer drinking and menopausal depression.  Her own experience has inspired her to coach other midlife women to not endure this season in their lives but work on developing themselves to become the best version of themselves.

In this inspirational episode, my guest Olawunmi Osode shares her journey to menopause at 36 years old. Suffering from a medical condition (very heavy bleeding) for which doctors wrongly advised hysterectomy (uterus and ovaries removal) as solution, unknowingly, she ended up  in early menopause land.
She was so unwell and very aware of the drastic change that came after the procedure  that in her bid to regain her health, she sought for medical help in London and after several medical tests was confirmed at severe menopause stage and put on HRT (hormonal replacement therapy) to alleviate her very challenging symptoms(depression, weight gain, irritability, confusion, low mood, isolation, lack of interest to name a few).
Her journey to healing and feeling good again inspired her to create an instagram page (Menojournal) to raise awareness and empower other sisters with the knowledge so they do not go through the horrible experience like her.
Be sure to get a copy of my e-book : Transform your menopause to MENOPOWER. This is your guide to learning about menopause, its symptoms and solutions and the need for each woman experiencing menopause to take ownership and create  a personalised solid intentional action plan  to feel Fabulous again and ENJOY her midlife season.

The changes that occur naturally in our bodies as we age can have devastating effects on our self image and self confidence if we let them. Those insecurities are reflected in a number of ways, and one of the most visible is with style and how we approach fashion as women in midlife. 
In fact, so many women struggle with self confidence, body image, and style, but in reality, It turns out that midlife should be  the BEST time for style! By midlife, we’ve finally grown into ourselves. Youth is about fashion. Style is about self-knowledge and acceptance. By style, I mean dressing your personality
