In this episode, Clarissa and Helen discuss osteoporosis and the importance of supporting bone health during menopause.

This month is World Menopause Month - now we all know menopause is 365 days a year for several years so one month is mere lip service. However, we will take what awareness raising we can get and use this time to make sure that we all are aware of what we can do for ourselves to make the most of menopause and indeed, as my guest encourages us to do - thrive in menopause!In this episode I am talking to Clarissa Kristjansson about how we all deal with peri-menopause and menopause. This is either something that you are going to go through, are going through, have been through or have partners, relatives and friends who are! It affects us all. And often at a time when society is deeming us invisible, when we have maybe reached a peak in our career, or when we have children still at home or flown the nest and potentially ageing parents to look after as well. Its an extremely full on time in a woman's life and then BOOM! menopause lands and we have a tonne of physical symptoms to deal with. So we need to be really kind with ourselves, really understand what is going on for us and I hope that our conversation will open your mind to some different perspectives on this phase in our lives.You can find Clarissa in Instagram @thrivingthrumenopause and on her podcast of the same name.

Clarissa Kristjansson is an internationally recognized menopause educator. She is widely regarded as the go-to source for the holistic health aspects of menopause. This episode opens with an overview of peri- and post- menopause, and the issues associated with each stage.  Some issues can be debilitating and need clinician advice.  AND they are facts of life, not imaginings... and should NOT be ignored or minimized by anyone. Clarissa gives us updated information on Hormone Therapy, explaining the different hormones and how they affect women.  AND discusses brain fog - is it menopausal? covid-related? early signs of brain changes? Her holistic approaches include mindfulness, meditation, mindful eating, exercise, rest, and self-compassion - while they might not eliminate any issues, they help women understand their bodies and be gentler with themselves.

In this episode, I'm joined by Clarissa Kristjansson, a menopause health coach and mindfulness practitioner.  Menopause & Work Clarissa worked in corporate roles for three decades and when she went through menopause her mental health suffered.  A self-described high functioning anxiety sufferer, she had managed her job. Until menopause hit.  Clarissa explained when she started to go through menopause she wasn't sleeping well, her anxiety was worse, and she no longer coped with things like she used to.  Her tipping point came early in a new role where she realized it was not the job for her.  Mindfulness & Menopause Clarissa has found mindfulness has helped her navigate the highs and lows of menopause. Women/ people can be in menopause for years, Clarissa pointed out learning to be in the moment can help accept this.  A different outlook on menopause Menopause has been a taboo topic, many have no idea what to expect when they start experiencing changes.  Clarissa says she likes to reframe the way menopause is viewed. For some people who may have been parents, they can view it as their time. Or as motivation to take a chance and change things.  Don't miss the full conversation!  Clarissa's Link https://clarissakristjansson.com/ About The Adulting With ADHD Podcast It's not just you – we aren't talking enough about ADHD and hormones. There are so many things I wish I had known about hormones and ADHD earlier. They play such a fundamental role in the human body, deeply impacting a person's life at all of their life stages. As a former journalist and current ADHD'er, I unpack this topic through patient stories, expert interviews, and personal narrative. With new episodes biweekly on Wednesdays, The Adulting With ADHD Podcast covers a variety of ADHD hormone topics including puberty, menopause, perimenopause, PMS, PMDD, and more. Why aren't we talking about this more? What do you do if you find yourself struggling with ADHD and hormones? We discuss this and much more. Need basic info about ADHD and hormones?

Show highlights 2:56 I probably now realize many years down the road that I was an anxiety sufferer, but I was very good at hiding it.  4:32 But by that stage, I thought I was going to be stuck here in cities, something terrible was going to happen. And then I had a panic attack at work, and that really was the tipping point.  12:00 It all sounds so bad if we only think about the symptoms, but the good side is that we get up, the changes are to reframe.   

Are you worried about what is in store for you if you're approaching perimenopause or if you're in the middle of it. Today's guest, Clarissa Kristjanssen, is a menopause health coach, a neuroscientist and mindfulness practitioner who suffered with severe anxiety during her own perimenopause, and who found her way through it to become a leader of women who are going through the transition of midlife.
