40s Woman & Beyond – The Podcast
They (I) say that women hit an amazing age in our 40s, full of experience and maybe some skill. And often still so keen to learn and do new things too. And I am so excited to be doing something new and outside my comfort zone and launching this podcast.
One of the things I’m always talking about is the joy of collaboration. For me it’s something that is unmatched by most other work scenarios. And I am so excited to have done this podcast with Gen Hallam (Nutrition Coach) and have been lucky enough to persuade Margaret Cabourn-Smith (host of Crushed) to join too. So many others have also been involved in the creation of this podcast – Josephine Green, Louise Bates, Claire Broughton, Stuart Gibbins to name but 4.
The aim of this podcast is not to try and emulate the unmatchable Women’s Hour, but instead is a chat amongst 3 perimenopausal women, bringing our experiences and knowledge to the podcast. Hopefully you’ll enjoy and want to join in the chat also.

Episode 3 – “That Zoe Shot, Working in our 40s (& Beyond) and a Podcast Road Trip”
Margaret, Genevieve and Anna discuss their recent “perimenopausal” experiences, what is working for them, and plan a Podcast Road Trip.
We refer to the book “Lift and Climb” by Viv Groskop in this episode, available in all good book shops. Cold water swimming, whilst it has many benefits is also associated with many risks including heart attacks and drowning. Please only try this with an experienced cold water swimmer in organised areas.
Episode 2 – “HRT Special with Dr Lindsey Thomas”
Anna and Genevieve talk to Dr Lindsey Thomas, a GP with over 20 years experience in womens’ health. Based in Leeds, Lindsey now also works with Myla Health and is one of only 240 specialists who has the British Menopause Society advanced certificate.
In this illuminating conversation we discuss what type, why and how woman can take HRT. Plus we ask Dr Lindsey direct – do midlife crushes help the menopause!
Episode 1 – “Dinner of the Gods, Sequin Playsuits and Midlife Crushes”
Join Genevieve, Margaret and myself where we discuss what we’ve been up to this week, the “adventure that is the news” and answer your Q & As
