I'm taking a short break, and we are going to come back stronger than ever.

Here I explain why!

I also butcher Joe Pulizzi's name, and for that I am sorry.

See you soon. AMx

Today we are doing something a little bit different because let’s be honest, everyone is overwhelmed right now and I’m no different.

This summer I was a guest on Sherry Jibb’s Happy & Healthy in Midlife Summit, and had a great conversation with her about so many things we don’t talk about much in the menopause conversation.

Sherry is a registered yoga teacher, a movement educator in Pilates mat and reformer, reiki practitioner and personal trainer. She’s also a person who deeply understands the menopause transition exists on so many levels, and gets just what a mind-body-soul transformation it is. In her words, in this interview: “It's a de-conditioning. It's a letting go of what society tells us is the recipe that we need to finding the recipe for ourselves. And love and compassion is the only way to do that.”

I just loved this interview. In it you will learn:

• More about my journalism career and what drew me to the Middle East
• What happened to my weight and how I got there
• How I think taking care of our health is actually simple – but not easy
• Why it's time to take radical responsibility for your health
• Some details about my stormy “transmenopausal year”
• The essentials of grieving
• Some of the things that helped me through perimenopause
• Why we need a toolbox

I'm giving a talk at the Organic & Real show in Dubai and this is my test run.

I talk about the intersection of my 30-year journalism career, which launched around the same time as my mother's death from pancreatic cancer.

And how that set me on a path to finding out whatever I could about health and wellness, all while I struggled with unchecked IBS that resulted in a health explosion in the autumn on 2022.

I talk about what I've learned from all the people I've interviewed and all the research I've done, and how combined with my search for answers for myself and my mom, that has informed a lot of my life.

How I got to where I was and how I got to where I am.
