The disruption of the menopause transition isn’t only felt in the body. It’s time to talk about the psychology and mental health impacts of this time of life.
What is the psychology of menopause? And how can our mental health be impacted? We’ve found the expert to ask, and we’re excited to share this conversation with you.
Welcome to this episode of Midlife Unfiltered - a podcast about unapologetically embracing the Season of Me.
In this episode, join us - co hosts Anita McLachlan and Erica Webb - as we chat with our guest, Clinical Psychologist Kirstin Bouse about the myths and emotions surrounding menopause, the psychological and mental health challenges women face during this transition, and the importance of a holistic, self-compassionate approach.
You will hear:
- The similarities between perimenopause and adolescence
- The critical need for proper support and advocacy in midlife
- The value of symptom tracking
- Why normalising the menopause experience is important
