Hold Fast And Trust Your Instincts.

In this final episode of Season four Karen Arthur chats with star
of stage, screen and radio, actress and Assistant Director
Suzette Llewellyn. Suzette, founder of the BiBi crew - the first
British comedy troupe to consist entirely of Black actresses.
Suzette starred in Eastenders from 2019 to 2021. Having trained
at LAMDA she went into television and films. Suzette is a
proud West Londoner raised by Jamaican parents. She learned
British Sign Language and now advocates for greater accessibility
for Deaf particularly in the Theatre. Suzette talks about first
feeling disconnected with the world and its noisiness that
eventually led to a good friend mentioning peri-menopause.
Suzettes openness and awareness of her own body plus a close
group of friends sharing their menopause tales helped her to
understand more about care specific to her evolving needs.
