Mid life mothering: you're not crazy, it's crazy hard with Lorraine Candy
Welcome to this week's episode on the Motherkind Podcast, where we chat with the incredible podcaster and author Lorraine Candy. She is a journalist for pretty much all my favourite magazines, including Sunday Times Style, and she recently gave it all up to create her podcast – Postcards from Midlife which celebrates and supports midlife women. She's also written a book about it which is absolutely brilliant. This episode is about: Why we need to understand better the changes that happen to us hormonally, emotionally, and spiritually. Why we HAVE to commit to self-care and the importance of showing it to our children The surprising mental changes we go through during the peri, pre and menopause stage Ultimately, Lorraine says we shouldn't wait for these changes to come as a surprise; instead, we should be prepared so we can thrive instead of just survive. I hope you love this episode.
