I’m not a menopause expert, but I can share my lived experience and in someways that is just as powerful as the stats and figures an expert can share with us. I’m so proud to be a part of the generation of women who have changed the narrative around menopause. With the might of social media, we are normalising the conversation.... And it is my hope that the next generation of women to experience menopause will benefit from us and won’t have the same struggles we did. They will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to understand and manage this critical time in a their life cycle. I hope their needs will be met by a society that is no longer awkward or ill equipped to support them. Where men are well informed, where the work place is accommodating, where the education system teaches, where GPs are fully trained. I hope that their menopausal transition is one of empowerment and pride to have reached this stage in their lives. For now though I’m going to keep using my voice to tell my story. Thank you to @qvcuk for inviting me to be a part of your powerful #menopauseyourway campaign. I loved meeting and standing alongside such honest, strong women with the aim of encouraging other women to join the conversation in their everyday lives, so we can shatter taboos and leave a welcoming space for the next generation. . .
