    HOW THIS ‘BIPOLAR PHOENIX’ TURNED HER MENTAL HEALTH STRUGGLE TO STRENGTH

    What’s it like to experience the highest highs and the lowest lows – often without knowing which is coming next? Adults living with bipolar struggle with emotional regulation and often feel powerless to control their manic or depressive symptoms – which is why author and speaker ANDREA BRANKIN joins Amanda Lim and Jasmin Dhillon on the forties formula to help other bipolar women find solutions. World Bipolar Day is March 30 and Andrea offers her lived experience as an example of what it’s like living with chronic mental health issues, including: · Managing risky behaviours and identifying the ‘red flags’ of potential triggers · The role of movement and meditation in managing mental health issues · How hormonal changes affect bipolar women differently and how to cope · The unique challenges facing bipolar parents In an emotional episode that cuts straight to the heart of living with mental health issues, Andrea teaches us about the importance of building a support team, finding your tribe, and focusing on what you can control in the long-term management of bipolar. If you can donate to a non-profit supporting those with bipolar this World Bipolar Day, consider Re Think Mental Illness or DBS Alliance. You can reach out to Andrea via here Instagram account. _____________ Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: 🥩 The Meat Club – Get $12 off your first order with code TFF12 🥑 Little Farms – Save 10% on your online shop with code FORTIES10 (min $100 spend) ______________ 📩 Join our mailing list at thefortiesformula.com for exclusive content, expert tips, and early access to giveaways! 📢 Follow us for more: 🎙️ Spotify, Apple & YouTube: The Forties Formula Podcast 📸 Instagram 👉 Support the show by subscribing, sharing this episode, and leaving a review!

    THE MISSING PEACE: WHAT WOMEN REALLY NEED IN MENOPAUSE

    THE MISSING PEACE: WHAT WOMEN REALLY NEED IN MENOPAUSE There’s no “medal” for getting through menopause – so why are so many women pushing themselves to the brink of stress, exhaustion and burnout trying to manage it? Author, yogi and wellness advocate CHERYL KENNEDY MACDONALD has a different solution for women suffering in the throes of menopause: slow down, stop the comparisons, and focus only on what you need to do to find your version of comfort during this time. In this honest and reassuring chat with Amanda Lim and Jasmin Dhillon on The Forties Formula Podcast, we cover: • What yoga really is, who it’s for, and how it helps women through menopause • Redefining womens’ value far beyond youth, fertility and caretaking • Building radical self-acceptance into your wellness life and perception of aging • How to build your “side gig” into a business without just trading time for money Like a calming friend offering useful and gentle advice over coffee, Cheryl reminds us that more isn’t necessarily better, meditation and walking work wonders, and that there are truly no limits to finding personal and professional success in our forties. ______________ Special Thanks to Our Sponsors: 🥩 The Meat Club – Get $12 off your first order with code TFF12 🥑 Little Farms – Save 10% on your online shop with code FORTIES10 (min $100 spend) ______________ 📩 Join our mailing list at thefortiesformula.com for exclusive content, expert tips, and early access to giveaways! 📢 Follow us for more: 🎙 Spotify, Apple & YouTube: The Forties Formula Podcast 📸 Instagram: @thefortiesformula 👉 Support the show by subscribing, sharing this episode, and leaving a review! ☕Want to show us some love?
