    • Holding Up The Menopause Mirror: Reflecting on Identity, Career, and the Path to Self-Discovery

      Holding Up The Menopause Mirror: Reflecting on Identity, Career, and the Path to Self-Discovery
      Jan 7 2026
      Michelle sits down with executive coach Jo Ibbott to peel back the layers of the menopause experience that often remain hidden behind closed office doors. For many women, the physical symptoms are only half the battle; the true challenge lies in the quiet erosion of confidence and the sudden, disorienting shift in professional identity. Jo shares her personal "aha" moment and explains how the "brain fog" of menopause is more than just forgetfulness, it is a psychological hurdle that can lead even the most successful leaders to question their worth. By moving away from a culture of silent apologies and "masking" symptoms, women can reclaim their power through community and informed advocacy. Michelle and Jo share practical advice for workplace communication and the reminder that prioritising your own "oxygen mask" isn't just an act of self-care, it’s a vital strategy for thriving in your next chapter. Jo Reveals How even highly successful women often fail to connect their workplace struggles to menopause, leading to unnecessary self-doubt and the urge to resign. How menopause affects approximately 300 systems in the body, meaning psychological symptoms like anxiety and loss of focus are as medically valid as hot flashes. Why creating "safe spaces" at work like simple posters or open dialogues, can stop women from feeling like they need to apologise for their biology. Why taking time to pause and invest in your own health is a survival strategy that allows you to continue caring for others and performing at your peak. BEST MOMENTS "It’s not you, it’s perimenopause... You’re not getting less capable; it’s just that our energy levels can dip by around 30 percent." "I thought I had onset dementia... I’d burst out crying for stupid reasons. We don’t think about things like that being linked to our hormones." "Putting the oxygen mask on yourself first... it’s not selfish to do that; it’s actually survival." "I want women to stop apologising for what they’re going through. This is real, it’s medical, and it’s nothing to be ashamed of."

    • The Big Root Cause Reset: How To Identify the Missing Links Driving Your Menopause Symptoms

      The Big Root Cause Reset: How To Identify the Missing Links Driving Your Menopause Symptoms
      Dec 31 2025
      Kate Driver is a naturopath specialising in perimenopause and menopause, who combines functional testing, personalised nutrition, and herbal medicine to get to the root of the symptoms so many women face. If you’ve ever felt like a failure after doing all you could to feel less exhausted and foggy, then hope is at hand! Kate is here this time to share 25 years of her invaluable experience in shining a light on the crucial missing links many women are desperate to identify. You'll learn about the signs of adrenal fatigue, how prolonged stress and environmental factors quietly throw your body out of balance, and the powerful, yet often overlooked, gut-hormone connection. You’ll soon be armed with real, lasting insights into how to move through midlife with clarity and confidence, and a practical set of steps to go from surviving to thriving. Kate Discusses How the adrenal and thyroid glands work together to regulate stress and metabolism, so when one is out of balance, the others will be affected Everyday environmental factors, including electromagnetic radiation (EMFs), blue light from devices, chemicals in personal care products, and even water additives like fluoride and chlorine, and how they act as major stressors that increase cortisol and inflammation, putting the body in a constant state of "fight or flight". Gut health and how it’s crucial for hormone balance. If the gut microbiome is imbalanced, it affects the conversion of thyroid hormones and the metabolism of oestrogen, which can lead to issues like constipation, gut inflammation, and hormone-driven symptoms How deep breathing, meditation, and grounding can help re-tone the vagus nerve which connects the brainstem to the organs How insulin resistance is exacerbated by high cortisol and can cause that troubling weight gain around the middle BEST MOMENTS "I just think starting with the basics as well... getting out in the morning, getting morning sunlight, getting as much [grounding] or being out in nature as much as possible compared to being inside. That's going to actually help your health the most." "Your body is giving you these symptoms because it's telling you that you're out of balance, not because perimenopause should be symptomatic. It's actually a recalibration." "You can't heal and you can't balance your hormones, you can't stay healthy if you're constantly in this sympathetic state or the fight or flight state of stress." "You've got to trust that your body can actually heal itself. Your body knows how innately to heal itself."

    • Busting The Four Myths That May Be Hijacking Your Menopause Journey

      Busting The Four Myths That May Be Hijacking Your Menopause Journey
      Dec 24 2025
      Are you tired of being told "It's just your age" or "You're probably stressed" while your body feels like it's been hijacked? In this episode, Michelle drops the taboos and tackles four common myths that mislead women and even health professionals about perimenopause and menopause. Discover the scientific truth about when the hormonal transition can truly begin (spoiler: it's often earlier than you think), and why a "normal" blood test doesn't mean your symptoms are imaginary. Most critically, she addresses the fear surrounding HRT, clarifying the risks and benefits of modern body-identical treatments. By the end of this episode, you will have the knowledge to advocate for yourself! Michelle Reveals How the hormonal transition is driven by ovarian aging and fluctuating hormones, not a birthday rulebook. How a single blood test that catches a normal moment in between the storms does not mean your symptoms are dismissed or that "nothing is happening" Why society has defined menopause by the hot flash stereotype, yet around 30% of women never get them. How perimenopause can present in countless other ways, including severe anxiety, brain fog, joint pain, mood swings, and gut/skin changes How the pervasive fear surrounding Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) originates from a badly reported and interpreted 2002 study (the Women's Health Initiative) that used older, synthetic forms on a generally older, higher-risk population Why all women deserve conversations and informed choice, not shame or scare tactics BEST MOMENTS "Imagine being told that when you feel like your entire personality has been hijacked by a deranged hormonal demon." "Your body doesn't read the textbooks to find out when it should start perimenopause, and it knows what stage of life it is in, even if the healthcare system is still catching up." "Your blood test isn't living your life. You are." "The myth that has overstayed its welcome by about two decades... If misinformation was furniture, this one would be the mouldy armchair we should have thrown out years ago."
