  • Spinning The Plates
    Aug 13 2023

    In this episode we cover a topic that seems common to women in general! But much more so in our menopausal years, spinning plates.  Things we used to zoom through and could do multitasking as an Olympic sport, suddenly we can’t seem to do that as much or at all. 

    Another aspect is managing our relationships, friendships can fall by the wayside as our tolerances don’t seem to be the same and that is not always a bad thing!  Our work relationships are covered as well. 

    Be prepared for honestly, laughs, the usual hilarious over sharing and of course some fruity language as both Tracy and Penny share their stories and experiences J

     You don’t want to miss:

     •  How to deal with those friendships when you feel they are fraying at the seams..

    •  What to do when those many plates start crashing to the ground!

     •  How to speak to your work colleagues when you may not be firing on all cylinders.

    PLUS, What electronic device has Penny discovered through necessity in her menopausal years that she wishes she discovered years ago 😊

    *Note we will do a full romantic relationship special for the man in your life who may not understand the changes in your body or if you’re in a same sex relationship and your change has started before your Mrs.

    Funny, relatable and insightful Penny and Tracy will take you on a journey through their own menopause minefields and how they made it through whilst reminding themselves “We’re not mad… we’re menopausal”

    May 29 2023
