Welcome to Peri Menopause Power, where we dive deep into the transformative journey of perimenopause and midlife.

In this episode, we are chatting with Melanie White again, who appeared in Episode 88 of the podcast. 

Melanie is a passionate advocate for women’s health and wellbeing, dedicated to elevating the lives of women through compassion, connection, and collaboration. With a mission to transform how women experience and navigate their health journeys, Melanie focuses on driving better health, social, and economic outcomes for women at every stage of life.

As peers and colleagues in the menopause space, we share a commitment to breaking the stigma surrounding women’s health and empowering women with the tools, knowledge, and support they need to thrive.

And so, for today’s episode we thought we’d have a chat about what we have seen and experienced this year.

Key Discussion Points

• COVID catalysed health and relationship awareness, with growing discussions around women's health issues like menopause and endometriosis.

• Generational shifts and innovations like apps, wearable tools, and workplace initiatives are empowering women to demand change, leading to more open conversations, empathy and activism around menopause.

• Overcoming dismissal in healthcare, with women often facing limited access to HRT and insufficient guidance on lifestyle changes, and

• Younger generations are valuing employers who prioritise health and well-being alongside financial benefits.
