Episode 014
In this episode, I am discussing 'Meno-Diaries' with the author, Jacqueline Golding.
Jacqueline Golding is an entrepreneur of 12 years and now a first-time author with her debut book ‘The Diaries of Menopausal Women’.

After meeting her menopause head-on, Jacqueline returned to her childhood love of writing. With a new sense of freedom and her usual compassion and empathy, she decided that her debut would encompass the voices of the voiceless.

Jacqueline has been praised for her encouragement of other women to own their truths and empower their sisters in their menopausal journeys.

Jacqueline has been featured in the Yorkshire Evening Post, Leeds Live TV and Business Mondays amongst other popular publications and podcasts.
We discuss:

Jacqueline's background
The process of writing 'Meno-Diaries'
The Menopause shit show - society's idea of what the menopause is.
Understanding and Education
Symptoms and Reactions
Menopause and The Workplace
Menopause and Relationships
The acceptance of Menopause
Mindset
Empowerment
