Menopause: Don't fear the change

Change can be scary, menopause doesn’t have to be.

What if you felt prepared for what’s coming?

What if you had the information you need to feel ready for this next phase of life and understood the health hacks that you can implement right now to help you have the best perimenopause experience possible? That would be great, wouldn't it!

Well, this World Menopause Day, you're in luck!

On October 15th at 19:00, Peppy, in partnership with Vitality, invites you to join a very special webinar.

Hosted by Sarah Rees, a 40 something year old, who is starting to think; “what will perimenopause be like for me and what can I do now to help myself get through it as smoothly as possible.”

She will be asking Kathy Abernethy, Peppy’s Founding Clinician all of her many, many questions in a bid to feel empowered and positive about what lies ahead.

Kathy is a highly-qualified and experienced Menopause Specialist and Peppy's Founding Clinician. She is a founding member, current Trustee and past Chair of the British Menopause Society (BMS).

We’re also thrilled to introduce Marlie Centawer, a qualified yoga instructor with over a decade of experience, specialising in supporting women through menopause and mid-life transitions. Having personally experienced early menopause at just 39, Marlie brings an authentic, relatable perspective to her teaching.

During this session, Marlie will delve into the powerful role that healthy lifestyle and movement play in managing hormonal balance and relieving stress during perimenopause.
