  • The Middle-Life Chrysalis: Finding Freedom Beyond Menopause
    Jan 21 2026
    We’ve been taught to view the arrival of menopause as a slow fade into the background, but what if it’s actually the moment you finally take centre stage? In this powerful conversation, Mel Dickinson sits down with Michelle to dismantle the myths that have left millions of women feeling invisible and powerless. This isn’t just a medical breakdown of hormones; it’s a roadmap for anyone who has ever felt like their body was becoming a stranger and wondered, "Is this just how it’s going to be?". Focusing on hope and radical relatability, they reveal that while hormone decline is inevitable, suffering is not. From the surprising science of "belly fat" to the psychological liberation that comes when reproductive expectations are off the table, you’ll discover that you aren't "losing it" you’re evolving. Mel Reveals Why you are likely to spend a full third of your life in a post-menopausal state How menopause isn't just hot flashes; it can manifest as "frozen shoulder," ear ringing, body odour, and joint pain Why female ovaries age at twice the rate of the rest of the body, meaning our endocrine systems are often in decline while our careers and personal lives are still in high gear. Why there is a profound lack of funding and training which is why you must be your own best health advocate. How “Belly fat" in menopause is often a biological response to oestrogen loss, and standard "diet and exercise" advice often fails because the body's internal chemistry has fundamentally changed. BEST MOMENTS "Menopause and oestrogen decline is inevitable... but suffering through it and having to just put up with it or dismissing it as a sign of aging is not." "After reproductive options are taken off the table, it's almost like medicine leaves us behind." "I want to be an 80-year-old climbing that mountain, kicking ass, having a career, healthy. If I don’t implement changes today, I’m not going to be able to reach that goal." "One of the reasons why so many of you feel so powerless about your hormones is because your doctor is probably not informed about this topic either."

  • Why You Feel “Normal” on Paper but Exhausted in Real Life During Perimenopause with Angeles Grover
    Jan 14 2026
    Many women enter perimenopause feeling unlike themselves long before they ever connect it to hormones. Blood tests come back “normal”, reassurance is given, yet the fatigue, anxiety, weight changes and sleep disruption continue. In this episode of Menopause – The Real Deal, Michelle Rowlinson is joined by integrative women’s health practitioner Angeles Grover to explore why so many women feel dismissed and what may be happening beneath the surface. With a background in the pharmaceutical industry and integrative health, Angeles explains why symptom management alone often falls short, and why factors such as stress physiology, digestion, mineral balance and everyday environmental exposures can quietly influence how women feel in midlife. Rather than offering quick fixes, this conversation encourages curiosity, asking better questions, and understanding the body as a connected system, especially during perimenopause and menopause. This episode is for you if you feel like you are doing “all the right things” but still feel off, and you want to understand why. Angeles Shares Insights On Why reassurance and “normal” results do not always match lived symptoms How stress patterns and energy regulation can change in midlife The connection between digestion, hormones and how the body copes with change Why modern lifestyles may place extra load on the female body during perimenopause Where many women unknowingly add more pressure instead of support BEST MOMENTS “Just because something is within range does not mean it is working optimally for that woman.” “We are not made of chemicals, we are made of food, minerals and information.” “Most women are not broken, they are just running on empty.” “Sleep is often the first place the body asks for help, long before anything shows up on a test.” GUEST LINKS Website : www.angelesgrover.com Free clarity call link : Hormone health:https://l.bttr.to/muif6 Gut health : https://l.bttr.to/WfMmy HOST BIO Michelle is a highly respected Physiotherapist and Menopause Wellbeing Practitioner with over two decades of experience in the health and wellness industry.

  • Holding Up The Menopause Mirror: Reflecting on Identity, Career, and the Path to Self-Discovery
    Jan 7 2026
    Michelle sits down with executive coach Jo Ibbott to peel back the layers of the menopause experience that often remain hidden behind closed office doors. For many women, the physical symptoms are only half the battle; the true challenge lies in the quiet erosion of confidence and the sudden, disorienting shift in professional identity. Jo shares her personal "aha" moment and explains how the "brain fog" of menopause is more than just forgetfulness, it is a psychological hurdle that can lead even the most successful leaders to question their worth. By moving away from a culture of silent apologies and "masking" symptoms, women can reclaim their power through community and informed advocacy. Michelle and Jo share practical advice for workplace communication and the reminder that prioritising your own "oxygen mask" isn't just an act of self-care, it’s a vital strategy for thriving in your next chapter. Jo Reveals How even highly successful women often fail to connect their workplace struggles to menopause, leading to unnecessary self-doubt and the urge to resign. How menopause affects approximately 300 systems in the body, meaning psychological symptoms like anxiety and loss of focus are as medically valid as hot flashes. Why creating "safe spaces" at work like simple posters or open dialogues, can stop women from feeling like they need to apologise for their biology. Why taking time to pause and invest in your own health is a survival strategy that allows you to continue caring for others and performing at your peak. BEST MOMENTS "It’s not you, it’s perimenopause... You’re not getting less capable; it’s just that our energy levels can dip by around 30 percent." "I thought I had onset dementia... I’d burst out crying for stupid reasons. We don’t think about things like that being linked to our hormones." "Putting the oxygen mask on yourself first... it’s not selfish to do that; it’s actually survival." "I want women to stop apologising for what they’re going through. This is real, it’s medical, and it’s nothing to be ashamed of."
