Episode 36.  How to say YES in the MESS of Menopause with Melissa Nyman

In the midst of her meno journey, trying to find information on what was happening with her body, she was coming up with dead end after dead end.  Even her GP was unsure on how to support her in this next phase of life.

So as all awesome women do, she took her power back and embarked on giving a voice to women once more.

Through research, and conversation she started a local group in her home town called Myohmeno discussing all things around the 3 stages of menopause.  The first meeting explaining these stages.

3 mths later she has a solid turn out at her weekly meetings and has gifted women from her small local town a safe place to share their experience.  

Supportive groups are such an incredible way of creating connection and allow a voice for what is real.  

Knowledge is power and when you can make the connections of what is happening in your world then you can find ways to care for yourself, even if that is just simply going for a walk, because you know that is the right thing to do for you in that moment.

Here are some links that Liss shared throughout the podcast.  Let’s get informed.
