“Is Your Mum or Nan Acting a Bit… Different Lately?”

Snappier than usual?
More tired, emotional, forgetful or just not quite herself?

It might not be “just age”…
It could be menopause.

So many women go through perimenopause and menopause without real understanding or support — and the people around them often notice the changes before they do.

Hormonal shifts can affect mood, energy, sleep, memory, confidence and how a woman shows up in everyday life.
But instead of curiosity and compassion, women are often labelled as “moody”, “difficult” or “losing it”.

In this short episode, I’m talking about how menopause can show up in mums, nans, aunties and partners — and why awareness, patience and support make such a difference.

Menopause doesn’t just affect the woman going through it.
It affects families, relationships and generations.

A little understanding goes a long way.

If this made you think of someone you love… share it with them.
