 Have you ever felt like you’ve lost your spark, and weren't quite yourself anymore? That's exactly what Suzi Ford, this week’s guest has faced. When menopause arrived during the isolation of COVID lockdown, it shook her world in ways she never expected. Fast forward three years, and Suzi has not only found the right support and begun her HRT journey, but she’s also transformed her health, losing six stone and rediscovering her confidence, energy and joy. Today, she tells you how she achieved it, and talks candidly about the real issues we face in order to help other women feel seen, heard, and supported Suzi Discusses The experience of menopause and how it can include a wide range of symptoms such as hot flushes, anxiety, weight gain, and changes in libido How consulting with a knowledgeable healthcare provider can lead to effective treatments like HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) How these treatments can alleviate many menopause symptoms and improve quality of life. How adopting a healthier diet and incorporating physical activity can help manage menopause symptoms and improve overall well-being Why setting achievable goals, such as step counts, can provide motivation and a sense of accomplishment. Why open dialogue with partners about the changes experienced during menopause is essential. How dialogue should include discussing emotional and physical intimacy, which can be affected by menopause.
