"If one person feels heard, then that's important."
Meera Bhogal is a menopause expert, personal trainer and fitness coach, who runs the platform Meera’s Made from Scratch, which includes training plans, clubs, and support with health, nutrition and exercise.
Meera’s passionate about raising awareness of menopause, particularly with South Asian women. She has also spoken to people at Sikh Gurdwaras - helping to break down taboos about menopause in South Asian communities. She’s even been to parliament to talk about it.
