I'm Grateful To Be Alive!

Our guest this week is Karen Mannion, The Health Creator.


Karen is a former PA who now helps women with hormone health
issues confidently navigate peri-menopause. Karen is of Ghanaian
heritage raised partly in Ghana and mostly in London, United
Kingdom. Her trials, from reconnections with her biological
family, to a diagnosis of Adenomyosis and Fibroids and the
ensuing treatment by medical professionals, are harrowing. But
Karens story is one of ultimate triumph and a testament to the
woman she has become today, helping other women to feel supported
and empowered.    


We discuss,


Culture and being 'othered'.

What good workplace support looks like

Adenomyosis symtoms

Fibroids and surgical menopause

Bossing her hormones

The power of dense nutrition



And so much more!

Please note:


These episodes are conversations between humans discussing their
own menopause experiences. They are no substitute for advice and
consultation with a qualified health professional. No two
menopause experiences are the same so do remember to do your own
research.
