Let's face it, we all like to feel in control of our lives, and with peri-menopausal and menopausal symptoms, many of us do not. Like many women I had no idea peri-menopause even existed. In the last 3 years I have become aware that I have been experiencing peri-menopausal symptoms for 14 years. So, who am I? I'm a wife, an aunt, a great-aunt, a friend; I run a Copywriting business from home and previously spent 30 years in the corporate sector in Administration Management, Executive Support, Training and Copywriting. I'm someone who likes to understand why things are the way they are, hence I have spent a lot of time researching the various symptoms I have had, and solutions to them. I also coach women to have an Empowered Menopause. You can contact Kathryn at: kathryn@thebusinesswriter.co.nz https://www.facebook.com/kathryn.price.37

She does this by helping them let go of their fear, let go of past resentments and step into their future as impassioned leaders. She is a Licensed Practitioner of NLP, a Certified Hypnotherapist and a Certified Transition coach. Her recently released book, “Raw Leadership: Awaken Your Power Within” walks readers through the steps to experience their own awakening. She has an audio course “Fire Up Your Leadership” to assist women wishing to further their ability to make changes After working with women for the past 3 years I have discovered once women are connected to their purpose nothing will stand in their way to accomplish their goals. They move from living small lives to being able to gain clarity, make better decisions and truly have a life by design rather than default. Women are the missing component in a world gone crazy. Women have the capacity to change the world. and not until each woman hits the turning point where they decide no more, do they begin their journey to discover their purpose on this earth. Once we awaken, we are like the mommabear, ferocious and unwilling to accept anything less than what is right in any given situation. In order to become a leader, you need to clean out the C.R.A.P., conflicts, resentments, attitudes, and procrastinations from your life . Those that you choose to hang on to, are what is preventing you from stepping into your new life.

In this episode, our host Pauline McCarthy describes her experience of thinking she was dying when she got her first period at the age of 12 due to having no education about what changes would happen to her body during puberty and her shock to discover that although she had vowed never to be in the situation where she did not know what was happening to her body, she was totally unprepared for "what menopause had to offer" due to the topic being taboo or "still in the closet."She then started a one woman stage show The Pearls of Pauline - Pearls of Wisdom, Compassion & Joy for Menopausal Women. Still this has not been enough to open the doors wide on that closet and let Menopause out to be a topic that can easily be talked about in the home, at the workplace and in society. Pauline reveals the concept around Menopause Morph and invites all women to prepare themselves to morph as easily and naurally though the Change-of-Life.
