• Episode 21: From drinking to cope with childhood trauma and menopause depression to becoming the best version of herself at 53.
    May 15 2022

    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.

  • EP 20.My Menopower story: From Hysterectomy to Menopause at 36 with Olawunmi Osode
    Apr 3 2022

    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.

  • Episode 15: The Power of Intentional Living for a Vibrant Midlife
    Nov 6 2021

    On this episode, I share my insight on the power of living intentionally in Midlife with the vision to enjoy this season in our lives.
    Indeed Midlife is a transitional period between age 40 to 65 and can be quite challenging as it comes with its lot of societal and family responsibilities, dealing with peri-menopause or menopause for some of us, caring for aging parents, planning for retirement, dealing with loss, divorce, changing career path, starting a business. It is therefore of the outmost importance to be intentional , deliberate to thrive in this second half of our lives.
    Areas to be intentional in are spiritually, in our relationship, marriage, in raising our kids, in prioritising activities that enhance our mental, emotional and physical health, in creating memories with aging parents etc.
    Being intentional requires discipline, focus, knowing our why and will contribute to living a wholesome vibrant Midlife.
