“The Mental Well-being Around Menopause is a Big Thing!”

Our guest this week is  Paula Stuart.


Paula is a Menopause and Lifestyle Coach having been a nurse for
10+ years and a Yoga Teacher in training. Born in Leeds of
Caribbean parents, she is now based in West Yorkshire where she
helps those in the prison system with physical, learning and
mental health issues. Paula, who was featured in the 2022

McCall, became post-menopausal in her early fifties and talks
openly about what works for her now.
