Perimenopause and Menopause Stories –
The good, the bad and the ugly.

Incredible tales of triumph and survival during mid-life health, shared by fearless and inspiring women who have lived through it all.

By tuning in to these powerful accounts, women everywhere can gain valuable insight into the telltale signs and symptoms that often catch them off guard. With a whole host of coping mechanisms to draw from, viewers can better navigate their own experiences and take back control of their health.

Plus, with each video grounded in evidence-based information, women can feel more empowered and confident when it comes to advocating for their own well-being in conversations with healthcare professionals. No more being ignored, dismissed, or brushed aside – these stories are here to change all that.

Are You Struggling with Hot Flashes, Night Sweats, Menopause Insomnia and Anxiety?

You’re in the right place!

We hope that this project of shared storytelling will help us all learn more about what’s happening to our bodies, give us tools and information that we can use for our own self-care, and remind us that we are not alone.

The ‘Am I in Menopause?’ PROJECT uses shared personal stories to:

  • Give hope to women who are struggling with menopause symptoms
  • Normalise menopause experiences
  • Give real-life examples of what has worked for other women
  • Showcase women’s courage in the face of this midlife journey
  • And most importantly, reassure women that they are not alone – there is a way through!

    • Though our paths may be varied, we can find solace in the fact that millions of other women are travelling right beside us. Join us in advocating for a world where every woman can embrace menopause with dignity and pride.

    From the producer:

    The ‘Am I in Menopause?’ PROJECT: A YouTube platform for shared storytelling around perimenopause and menopause symptoms.

    For me, the ‘Am I in Menopause?’ PROJECT is a labour of love that I hope will bring comfort and community to all the women out there feeling isolated by their experiences. It’s not easy being vulnerable on camera – but brave individuals have made it happen so we can all benefit from learning more! I’m truly honoured to work with such strong women.

    I would love to hear from you! Do you have any suggestions for improvement? Do you want to tell your own story? Get in touch by emailing me: barbara@herstasis.com.
