Welcome to Peri Menopause Power, where we dive deep into the transformative journey of perimenopause and midlife. In this episode, we are announcing a hiatus from our podcast after three and a half years of weekly episodes. We discuss the valuable conversations and impactful guest interviews that have defined our show. We highlight the reasons we started the podcast, namely addressing the lack of positive information about menopause, and celebrate the community and education that has emerged as a result. We share our personal growth through this experience and our continued commitment to women's health education. Finally, we encourage our listeners to stay connected via other platforms and thank them for their support, emphasising that this is a pause rather than a permanent goodbye. Key Discussion Points

| That time we convinced our podcast producer to wear the MenoVest… | 03 Mar 2025 | 00:31:30 | |
Welcome to Peri Menopause Power, where we dive deep into the transformative journey of perimenopause and midlife. In this episode, our podcast producer, Rob Flude, got to wear and experience the MenoVest. It’s taken some months, but Rob also agreed to come on the show and record a live episode and discuss menopause, something that wasn’t on his 2025 bingo card, but he embraced it nonetheless. We not only gave Rob the MenoVest experience, but we gave him an insight into one of the most impactful and common symptoms - hot flushes - and opened up his awareness as to the cognitive, emotional and mental impact of menopause. We also gave Rob the space to ask us some questions without fear of judgement, and we are sure you will enjoy this discussion as much as we enjoyed recording it. Key Discussion Points

| My Personal Menopause Story with Mona Emera | 03 Nov 2024 | 00:32:29 | |
Welcome to Peri Menopause Power, where we dive deep into the transformative journey of perimenopause and midlife. In this episode, we continue our grassroots conversations and we’re speaking with Mona Emera. Mona went to school with Nat, albeit a few years apart, and they recently reconnected at a panel event. Mona is a family law firm owner who overcame fertility struggles and underwent IVF treatments and then had natural pregnancies to become a mother of two. She then was diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency. In this episode, she discusses the physical and emotional challenges of perimenopause, including brain fog, hot flushes and mood swings, and her transformative experience using HRT. The conversation emphasises the importance and the opportunity of education and support in the workplace, especially in traditional industries like law. Mona encourages women to prioritise their health, embrace self-care, and engage in open conversations about menopause. Mona also advocates for increased menopause education and understanding across all demographics to foster empathy and support. Key Discussion Points
