Carol King - Actively Seeking Joy In Menopause

In this engaging conversation, Carol King shares her ride through perimenopause, the need for open conversations about women's health and her rise to TikTok fame as THE Menopause Auntie. She started experiencing extreme fainting episodes which understandably concerned her and her family. Moving to Barbados, from the UK, she found limited knowledge or understanding of what could be happening. She emphasizes the significance of lifestyle changes, finding joy, and reclaiming one's identity during this transformative phase of life. Carol also highlights her efforts to create community resources and her upcoming book that aims to educate and empower women navigating menopause through humour.

Carol King moved to Barbados and embraced a new life.
Perimenopause symptoms can start much earlier than expected.
Women often face challenges in getting their symptoms taken seriously.
Humor can be a powerful tool in coping with menopause.

Lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise, can significantly improve health.

Carol's book aims to provide accessible information on menopause with humour.
