    Mothering through Menopause with Dr. Fiona Barry

    Dr. Fiona Barry is a Chinese health practitioner specialising in fertility, hormonal issues, trauma and pain. Fiona is often on TV, radio or National Press talking about the menopause and she was an integral part of the formulation of Menoactive - part of the Revive Active family of supplements. This is a fascinating chat about this relatively new phenomenon of the 'sandwiched' generation, where women can often have young kids, whilst going through the menopause, and potentially minding elderly parents and working! No wonder women arrive at her clinic exhausted! If that resonates with you you can find Fiona at https://fionabarry.ie/ or on Instagram at @dr_fionabarry Stef McSherry is a mum of 2 and a pre-school activity and behaviour specialist, working with that age group for over 20 years.
