I am a Strong Black Woman and I am Proud of That

Menopause Whist Black Season SIX Episode 2!


This weeks guest is Mary Martin, founder of fashion house Mary
Martin London.


Mary is an award-winning self taught fashion designer based in
South London. Originally from Wales, Mary's story literally reads
like a 'rags to riches' novel - this determined woman has never
had any intention of being stuck with the cards she was dealt.
Her strong Christian faith is a common thread throughout her
life. Mary shares her menopause story and how she cares for
herself 'naturally'. (I am aware of some contention around this
word, but listen in and you'll get it) 


We talk about: 


Early years as a teenager new to London from Wales.

Her unwaivering faith in God

Discovering her fashion creativity and purpose.

The rage that accompanied her menopause onset.

The joys of regular exercise.



and so much more.


There's no getting round the fact that Mary is and continues to
be an inspiration to many, and we're sure you'll find a part of
her journey that resonates.


This episode is available to watch on YouTube and listen on
iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and beyond.


If Mary's story hits home do share this episode with others who
may benefit from our conversation. Don’t forget to leave a
comment or positive review on your chosen platform!
