Today is World Menopause Day

🌸 WORLD MENOPAUSE DAY | 18 OCTOBER 🌸

Behind the uniform, the work emails, the school run and the smile, there may be a woman struggling—and trying her hardest to keep going.

Hot flushes, mood changes, irritability, exhaustion and changes in her body can leave her feeling unlike herself. Every woman’s experience is different, and you cannot always see what she is dealing with.

Supporting women starts with listening. Taking their concerns seriously. Asking, “What would help?” Giving them space to speak without embarrassment or judgement.

At home, that might mean sharing the load and offering patience. At work, it might mean an understanding conversation, flexibility and practical adjustments. It also means supporting women to seek appropriate care when they need it.

A joke about her mood or a comment about her weight can stay with her. So can kindness, reassurance and feeling believed.

Through Hack My Hormones, I want women to feel heard, supported and confident asking for help. You deserve compassion on the difficult days, as well as encouragement on the good ones.

💗 Every experience is different. Every woman deserves support.

TEN WAYS TO BE MORE DOLLY

1. Chase butterflies and rainbows and remember that success is only success if you make space for the aforementioned chasing.

2. Be so wildly yourself that those around you are encouraged, inspired and magnetically drawn to do the same.

3. Let those who will, judge and mock, whilst you crack on with whatever it is that brings you and those you love, joy.

4. Be remarkably unafraid to be seen as cheesy, cringey or too-much because you know that is actually the very best way to exist in this life.

5. Make kindness your top priority. Make it weird. Make it big. Make it contagious.

6. Create, in the unique way you’ve been created to create. In the way that only you can do so. Do so.

7. Give. Give freely. Give back. Give out. Give in (to the flow). Don’t ever give up.

8. Accept every single soul exactly as they are and show this to be true by accepting yourself in that courageous way, too.

9. Throw love around - let the entire world know you are loving them simply because it’s what each and every soul deserves.

10. Seek and gather all the good stuff along the way. Notice it. Share it around. Let it ripple. Those ripples are your legacy. You might not see it but best believe it matters.

I can’t stop writing about Dolly today (it’s how I cope) but isn’t that exactly what inspirational souls do whilst they walk with us and long after they take their leave. Inspire. Encourage. Affect.

Love to all who this hits hard,

You’re not alone.

There’s still summer left 🐝🌻

Cooler mornings, darker bedtimes, wasps getting bold… all the familiar tells that the season will soon be changing. But we still have now, and I don’t want to miss it by looking too far ahead.

Artists often focus on the “negative space” where is less about painting the object, and a focus on painting the spaces in between. That reminded me to be present in the space in between, in the now.

Where are you finding your spaces in between this week?
