Can hypnotherapy help with menopause symptoms? with Sally Garozzo
What comes to mind when you hear the word hypnotherapy? Relaxation, a deep sleep, or perhaps you're more of a sceptic and imagining being taken into a trance like state? Well in this episode, I'm joined by experienced Clinical Hypnotherapist, Sally Garozzo, and we're going to explore the practice of hypnotherapy and hear about how it could ease menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, anxiety and sleep disturbances. Sally will help us to bust some myths about hypnotherapy, help us understand the benefits and learn exactly how it can help during the perimenopause and menopause years.
As well as being an award winning clinical hypnotherapist and an advanced rapid transformational therapist, Sally Garozzo is also the founder of the Menopause Mindset Hypnosis collection, the world's only powerful set of hypnosis recordings, specifically for menopause symptoms. She also helps people with insomnia inside her Sleep Superpower Academy.

Going through menopause with a disability, with Emma Livingstone
Too often women living with disability are left out of the menopause and midlife women's health conversations, and as a result put their symptoms down to pre existing health conditions, not realising that they could be entering perimenopause or menopause.
In this episode, I’ll be talking to Emma Livingstone about navigating the menopause with a disability.
Emma Livingstone was born with cerebral palsy and had to give up work having seen a significant decline in her mobility in recent years, leading to several surgeries. It was her frustration at the lack of knowledge and understanding of cerebral palsy as a disability affecting adults that spurred her on to begin campaigning. And she founded Up, the adult cerebral palsy movement, to campaign for better support and services and give a voice to the adult cerebral palsy community.
In this episode:
01:46 Why Emma founded Up
08:09 The impact of aging on Emma’s health
12:56 Experiences of the CP community with menopause
21:48 Untangling diagnoses
25:43 Recognising CP as an adult condition

How to manage pelvic prolapse in menopause, with Kim Vopni
Your pelvic floor is an incredibly important part of the body that very often doesn't get the attention it deserves. Incontinence, painful sex and constipation are all embarrassing symptoms of a weak pelvic floor. But on occasion, poor pelvic floor health can result in more serious issues such as prolapse. All of these issues are extremely common, particularly after pregnancy and childbirth. And they're absolutely treatable, but aren't openly discussed often enough. And many women suffer unnecessarily in silence rather than seek help. So I'm delighted to be able to speak today to author pelvic floor specialist and creator of the ABS system Kim Vopni.
Kim Vopni is a speaker and women's health educator known as the Vagina Coach. She is a certified fitness professional who became passionate about spreading information on pelvic health when she was pregnant with her first child.
In this episode
01:32 What is pelvic floor prolapse?
6:24 How hormones affect your pelvic floor
10:22 Pelvic floor exercise
16:50 Pelvic floor therapy
20:59 When is surgery the answer?
25:05 Working with a pelvic health physiotherapist

Joining me is Dr. Kate Bunyan.

Kate is a regular guest in The Latte Lounge and always packs in so much helpful information.

Can you slow down ageing in midlife? with Dr Alka Patel
Is it possible to slow down ageing? And how can we give ourselves the best possible chance to live a long and healthy life?
That's the topic I discuss in this episode with TEDx speaker, GP, lifestyle doctor and coach Dr. Alka Patel.
I first met Dr Alka two years ago when I interviewed her for our first ever Midlife Festival. What stuck with me is her mantra that our health is a ‘skill’ - she explained to me that health is not something we’re just given, it’s something we have to work at.
Join me as we dive into that more closely and hear Dr Alka’s tips for how we can all make compassionate lifestyle changes for a happy, healthy and long life.
In this episode
00:00 Intro
5:27 What does it take to be healthy in midlife?
13:21 Lifestyle factors that contribute to long life
23:28 Diet and supplements
28:16 Building good habits
33:31 Menopause and ageing
