What I found difficult though was the unwillingness to broaden their perspective and listen to all sides of the story. Any contradictory opinion was simply shut down with a response such as 'I stand by my original opinion.' This kind of thinking is problematic for reasons you'll learn in today's podcast episode.

Yeah, that was a penny drop moment for me too! I had no idea that fear, stress and anxiety stimulated histamine and prevented it from being eliminated properly. As we know, at menopause, very often our stress hormones are sky high. But there's something else that triggers all those sneezy, swelly type symptoms by just looking at a glass of wine. It's to do with declining progesterone and oestrogen dominance. All will be revealed. My gues...2022-05-161h 09The Menopause Mindset102 Deep Organisational Change with Nik DavisHello? Do you SEE me?

Answer: You can learn them both.When it comes to pleasure, did you know that many of us have a lid on our capacity to harbour it?

I often wonder if much of the menopause misery we see is down to the fact that the deeper meaning of menopause is not truthfully being shared.Slapping on a bit of HRT might help short term, but if that's all we're focused on, we're missing out on the true gold of the whole experience.

As people that go through menopause, this is bad news. Grief occurs when we experience any kind of loss or change. It is not limited to death and bereavement. So a rising of grief during menopause is natural. Learning how to navigate this internal change can often mean allowing ourselves to experience the sadness of loss.

As women (cis and trans), understanding men and the wounds they carry, I believe, holds the key to healing a broken system, a system that currently doesn't help us through the menopause transition safely.
