In today’s episode, I’m talking about the fascinating history of menopause – the things women had to go through, and how we were so misunderstood and mistreated all because of a natural biological process that all women go through at some point in their lives.   This is such an important topic because it sets the scene for where we are today in terms of misunderstandings, taboos, embarrassment and shame around perimenopause and our menopausal symptoms.   I hope this episode is a step towards framing a more positive view of menopause, because we can’t truly know where we’re going until we understand where we’ve come from.   Don’t forget to share this episode with friends and family, and also please head over to Apple Podcasts and leave me a review – that really helps other people find the show.   Thank you so much!   Wishing you joy and good health,   Catherine   x   Grab your FREE Menopause Weight Loss Guide.   Cracking the Menopause by Mariella Frostrup   Menopausing by Davina McCall   Come and hang out with me on Facebook and Instagram   Join our Healthier Life Through Menopause Community Facebook Group and get daily tips, recipes, challenges, encouragement and more!   Want to find out more about my health coaching programmes?
