Join host Janine Newberry on the Eat Love Do show as she chats with menopause expert Mira Bogle about her transformative journey from struggling through 10 years of debilitating perimenopause symptoms to becoming a leading voice in menopause education. Mira shares her raw, honest experience of symptoms that started in her late thirties, including severe brain fog that made her think she had Alzheimer’s, night sweats so intense she’d change sheets multiple times, and periods so heavy she couldn’t leave the house. Her story will resonate with countless women who’ve felt like they were losing their minds during this life transition. This enlightening conversation reveals why oestrogen is called the ‘master hormone’ and how its decline affects everything from brain health to heart function, bone density, and emotional wellbeing. Mira breaks down practical solutions including hormone replacement therapy (HRT), the importance of symptom tracking, and why women need to advocate for themselves with healthcare providers who often lack adequate menopause training. With women potentially spending a third of their lives in menopause, this episode provides essential tools and hope for navigating this significant life stage with confidence and knowledge.
