Summary

Meg Mathews is the fourth Chops in our menopause series, as Mick finds out all about her website, megsmenopause.com. They talk about the loneliness menopause can bring if you don’t understand what’s going on, and how Meg's experiences made her want to make things easier for other women to recognise what's happening and thrive rather than survive.  megsmenopause.com is a brilliant resource for any woman feeling like she’s at the start of the peri, deep into it, or even a good few years before it’s likely to happen – best to be well-armed, eh? (Yes.) Meg's a little bit woo-woo, a whole lot of practical and absolutely no-nonsense talking when it comes to matters of the menopause. We loved her.
