7 years ago, this was me too.
When severe brain fog struck leaving me with no confidence and unable to perform my best at work … I was fired! It was an unfair dismissal, but nevertheless shocking and distressing.
Please don’t let this happen to you.
It’s totally possible to sail through menopause feeling great with minimal symptoms, but you have to take action.
Whether you want to take HRT medication or not, it’s vital that you ensure your nutrition and lifestyle are working with you and not against you.
After all, post menopause you could have another 30-50 years of life to live ahead of you!
I strongly believe that menopause can be a positive, life affirming new life stage and armed with the right information and support you can too!
Would love to know whether you agree with me on this?
Let me know!
