In this episode of 40s Woman and Beyond, Anna Black and Gen Hallam, alongside Margaret Cabourn-Smith, dive into the everyday realities of navigating perimenopause.

From managing the impact of social media on mood and energy, to simple (and realistic) ways to stay hydrated, they share what’s actually working for them right now. They also explore whether “healthier” options like organic wine make any difference when it comes to symptoms like hot flushes.

It’s an honest and relatable conversation covering anxiety, low mood, hot flushes, dry skin (including those unexpected dry eyelids), and the small habits that can make a difference day to day.

This week on 40s Women & Beyond, we’re chatting through feathery kisses, public speaking and Margaret's wellness breakfast.

We touch on love languages and how they play out in real life, plus how minding less if things go wrong can make all the difference.

We revisit a few tips from previous guests that have stuck and talk International Women’s Day and whether it sometimes leans a little too far into forced positivity.
