This podcast is my treat to myself. I’ve listened to every single episode and learn something wonderful about someone amazing every time. Karen has a great way of enjoying the chat whilst bringing up some very personal moments - I’ve learned so much about humanity and the power of sharing from this podcast.
A space to rest, listen and feel community

A wonderful podcast that shares many Menopause experiences. This is a safe space to hear our shared experiences from women of colour that have walked through life on a path that many of us will recognise. Karen is a superb host with a calm aura.
Absolutely Fabulous!

I am a 49year old black woman, currently 2 weeks into recovering from hysterectomy surgery due to fibroids. I was very interested in listening to the episode when Karen spoke to a lovely lady about her surgical menopause journey. As well as my mum and older sister and cousin, I have a couple of friends who have also been through this and I’ve been able with talk with them about surgical menopause. All different experiences, may I add! However, because of how common fibroids are amongst black women, there needs to be more discussion around fibroids and at what point a hysterectomy becomes your only realistic option for treatment- which then comes with its own issues of surgical menopause. I am SO glad I’ve found this pod cast, it’s so informative and uplifting, I’ll be tuning in to the next season. In the meantime, I’ll be catching up with this season! Many thanks, Alex
