Going through menopause with a disability, with Emma Livingstone
Jul 11, 202300:30:24Tap to summarizeToo often women living with disability are left out of the menopause and midlife women's health conversations, and as a result put their symptoms down to pre existing health conditions, not realising that they could be entering perimenopause or menopause. In this episode, I’ll be talking to Emma Livingstone about navigating the menopause with a disability. Emma Livingstone was born with cerebral palsy and had to give up work having seen a significant decline in her mobility in recent years, leading to several surgeries. It was her frustration at the lack of knowledge and understanding of cerebral palsy as a disability affecting adults that spurred her on to begin campaigning. And she founded Up, the adult cerebral palsy movement, to campaign for better support and services and give a voice to the adult cerebral palsy community. In this episode: 01:46 Why Emma founded Up 08:09 The impact of aging on Emma’s health 12:56 Experiences of the CP community with menopause 21:48 Untangling diagnoses 25:43 Recognising CP as an adult condition About The Latte Lounge: This episode of the Latte Lounge podcast was presented by Katie Taylor from The Latte Lounge: https://www.lattelounge.co.uk/ We help women over 40 navigate perimenopause, menopause and midlife with confidence!

How to manage pelvic prolapse in menopause, with Kim Vopni
Jul 4, 202300:30:58Tap to summarizeYour pelvic floor is an incredibly important part of the body that very often doesn't get the attention it deserves. Incontinence, painful sex and constipation are all embarrassing symptoms of a weak pelvic floor. But on occasion, poor pelvic floor health can result in more serious issues such as prolapse. All of these issues are extremely common, particularly after pregnancy and childbirth. And they're absolutely treatable, but aren't openly discussed often enough. And many women suffer unnecessarily in silence rather than seek help. So I'm delighted to be able to speak today to author pelvic floor specialist and creator of the ABS system Kim Vopni. Kim Vopni is a speaker and women's health educator known as the Vagina Coach. She is a certified fitness professional who became passionate about spreading information on pelvic health when she was pregnant with her first child. In this episode 01:32 What is pelvic floor prolapse? 6:24 How hormones affect your pelvic floor 10:22 Pelvic floor exercise 16:50 Pelvic floor therapy 20:59 When is surgery the answer? 25:05 Working with a pelvic health physiotherapist About The Latte Lounge: This episode of the Latte Lounge podcast was presented by Katie Taylor from The Latte Lounge: https://www.lattelounge.co.uk/ We help women over 40 navigate perimenopause, menopause and midlife with confidence!

Jun 27, 202300:36:57Tap to summarizeWhy is resistance training so important as we age, and how can we fit it into our busy lives?

Can you slow down ageing in midlife? with Dr Alka Patel
Jun 13, 202300:41:09Tap to summarizeIs it possible to slow down ageing? And how can we give ourselves the best possible chance to live a long and healthy life? That's the topic I discuss in this episode with TEDx speaker, GP, lifestyle doctor and coach Dr. Alka Patel. I first met Dr Alka two years ago when I interviewed her for our first ever Midlife Festival.

Join me as we dive into that more closely and hear Dr Alka’s tips for how we can all make compassionate lifestyle changes for a happy, healthy and long life. In this episode 00:00 Intro 5:27 What does it take to be healthy in midlife? 13:21 Lifestyle factors that contribute to long life 23:28 Diet and supplements 28:16 Building good habits 33:31 Menopause and ageing About The Latte Lounge: This episode of the Latte Lounge podcast was presented by Katie Taylor from The Latte Lounge (https://www.lattelounge.co.uk).

Cooking your way to a happier menopause, with Meera Bhogal
May 16, 202300:31:28Tap to summarizeIn this episode,I'm going to be talking to food coach and menopause expert Meera Bhogal, about how we can all cook our way to a happier menopause. We'll be talking about how many women can develop in midlife or discover they were suffering for years before with allergies and food intolerances, which can affect your quality of life during midlife and menopause. We'll also be discussing how through Meera's own personal journey with food allergies, she created a brand new healthy and nutrition rich food brand. Meera Bhogal is the founder of the healthy food brand Meera's Made From Scratch, which she created after realising that much of the gluten and dairy free food she needed to eat contained far too much sugar. She's hugely passionate about raising awareness of menopause, especially within South Asian communities where it's often not spoken about openly. 02:29 Meera's story 12:03 Building a food brand 19:13 Eating out with food intolerances 23:15 Easy cooking 26:55 Menopause and the South Asian community About The Latte Lounge: This episode of the Latte Lounge podcast was presented by Katie Taylor from The Latte Lounge.
