Loved this. All very relatable. The worries are endless. I suppose we have to look for the glimmers amongst the worries. And HRT, obvs!

Wonderful writing Holly. So, so relateable. I’ve really struggled in the last 2 years with the impact on my peri symptoms whilst also embarking on a whole new career, retraining as a lawyer over in london. At times I have almost given up the study, as juggling a family / kids as well. I am now doing my training, working with real clients with real legal issues at the sharp end of law, and being Mid, with all life’s experiences, is my super power. I can really, actively listen to Clients and relate to their challenges. My younger colleagues don’t seem to be able to listen and understand as well, and ask the right questions and offer empathy, so I am taking this stage if life, accepting it and using it as a superpower. Loved ep 1 of Mid - can’t wait for more. X

Oh Holly - some of your best writing EVER!! I literally laughed out loud, read bits out loud to my Gen Z-er who's toiling away in the kitchen making me dinner (the joys of them NOT moving out just yet), and genuinely can't wait to listen to the podcast. Brava, that woman, brava!!
