    Menopause and Chronic Pain with Stacey Roberts: Pelvic Floor, Hormones & Root Causes

    Menopause and chronic pain are more connected than many women realize. In this episode, Stacey Roberts — holistic RN, physiotherapist, and functional medicine specialist — explains how hormones, pelvic floor dysfunction, inflammation, stress, and gut health can all contribute to pain in midlife. We discuss why declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause can increase pain sensitivity, why pelvic floor issues are often overlooked, and why addressing the root cause matters more than simply masking symptoms with medication. If you’re dealing with joint pain, muscle pain, pelvic symptoms, stiffness, inflammation, or unexplained changes in your body during menopause, this episode offers a more holistic and empowering perspective. Stacey Roberts is the author of the #1 best-selling book, ​​The Pain Free Formula: Solving The Puzzle of Muscle and Joint Pain Without Surgery, Drugs, or Injections and the host of the #1 podcast on chronic pain, The Pain Free Formula.

    Navigating Midlife: Nutrition, Menopause, and the Power of Protein

    Today, Melanie and registered dietitian and coach Amanda Mannes explore midlife nutrition challenges and how women's dietary needs evolve during this pivotal life stage. They discuss the impact of stress and sleep on overall health, with Amanda sharing a candid account of weight gain during a stressful period - even while eating clean - to remind us that non-food factors can influence the scale. The conversation dives into practical nutrition, including protein needs for midlife women (Amanda suggests about 1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight) and easy swaps like high-protein yogurt, pairing carbohydrates with protein to stabilise blood sugar and curb cravings, and a quick look at cholesterol management with plant sterols. They also highlight a crucial strategy: making one effective dietary change at a time to build sustainable, lasting habits.

    HRT Patches Australia Shortage: How Lorai Health Is Fixing the Menopause Access Crisis

    Australia is facing an ongoing HRT patches shortage, leaving many women asking: Are HRT patches available in Australia? In this episode of The Sage Women Podcast, we speak with Johanna Wicks and Raisa Montero from Lorai Health, the Australian women’s health startup working to solve the hormone replacement therapy patch shortage. For more than 20 years, only three HRT patches have been available in Australia - contributing to repeated supply disruptions. Combined with PBS pricing pressures and global pharmaceutical market dynamics, Australian women navigating menopause and perimenopause have been left without reliable access to essential treatment. Lorai Health is developing a two-generation innovation strategy: A faster-to-market patch using advanced medical materials, followed by next-generation materials and adhesives designed specifically for women. In this conversation, we explore: - Why HRT patches are in short supply in Australia - The impact on menopause and perimenopause care - Cost and access challenges - The difference between continuous and combined HRT patches - The funding barriers female founders face in women’s health - How broader access to HRT could translate into billions of dollars of savings, in preventable age-related healthcare challenges. If you’re searching for answers about HRT patches in Australia, menopause treatment options, or the future of women’s health innovation, this episode delivers clarity and hope.

    Designing Work That Works for Women: Confidence, Connection & Capacity in Midlife

    What if the way we design work could directly improve mental health, confidence, and long-term career wellbeing - especially for women navigating midlife transitions? In this episode of Sage Women, Michelle Hasani, Rebecca Hannan and Mel share a bold, evidence-based conversation shaped by their collaboration, Work by Design. Together, they explore how cognitive and relational shifts in midlife -including those brought on by menopause - intersect with neuroscience, work culture, and gendered systems.
