'Don't put yourself at the bottom of the pile'
Sam Walker has wise words for you if you've been struggling through perimenopause and menopause.
Sam is an award winning broadcaster; podcaster and author. She worked on national radio in the UK, before upping sticks and moving to - Phoenix Arizona! Her award winning podcast Desert Diaries tells you the story. She’s now an audio consultant and podcaster.
Emma and Helen hear Sam's perimenopause story, which was incredibly tough for her at times. Remember, if you're struggling, and you're in the UK and Ireland, the Samaritans number is 116 123. They’re always there, day or night. In the rest of the world please do look up your local mental health number.
Sam got through it, thanks to HRT and has regained her health and her sanity. In fact, she's about to run the London Marathon! She's raising money for Breast Cancer Now and would be incredibly grateful for any support. Donate by clicking on this link, or you can find out more on Sam's instagram.
