Wendy Talks Menopause: What No One Told Me What I Learned & How You Can Thrive (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648995746)

After decades of giving to others, menopause begs us to start asking: What about me?

As a mother of four, a wife, and a business owner and entrepreneur, Wendy was used to juggling the chaos of life and managing it all. But when perimenopause hit, it felt eerily similar to getting her first period - confusing, scary and an introduction to a whole new version of herself. She thought menopause was meant to be just hot flashes and no more periods, but reality revealed a bewildering descent into brain fog, rage, exhaustion and a body that suddenly felt alien. The result? A full-on, f*cking breakdown.

On the other side of it though lay a reclamation of the woman Wendy realised she was always meant to become. As a hairdresser, Wendy saw firsthand how menopause was wreaking havoc on her and her client's hair. There were no suitable products available, so she set out to create Australia's first dedicated menopause haircare range. In doing so, Wendy found a creative outlet that allowed her to take back control and evolve into the next phase of herself.

In this raw, intimate, and unflinchingly honest account, Wendy lays bare her personal struggles and the ways she learned to cope and move forward. Interwoven throughout is support from a plethora of holistic health professionals, providing practical strategies to manage symptoms, reclaim your energy, and find peace amid the chaos.

Wendy Talks Menopause is more than a book; it's a conversation we desperately need to have. It's a rallying cry for women to shed the silence, embrace their power, and not just survive through menopause - but thrive through it.
