The reality is I’ve not felt great about myself since hitting menopause and i rarely talk about it. I’ve had quite a lot of hair loss, my face goes bright red everytime I work out and the lethargy is getting me down. Saturday night I went out with friends, it was a commitment I’d made that I had to work hard to stick to, the sofa was calling strong! I chopped a ton of my hair off got my best thrifted outfit on slapped on lipstick & mascara and headed west, and I’m so glad i did. I don’t enjoy the after effects drink has on me so bar 1/2 glass of rose it was a sober affair but we danced our socks off til 1am & that filled me with so much love for life, so much joy that I’m determined to hold onto it. If you’re struggling thru the menopause i see you, its tough there are so many symptons that are hard to live with and it can all lead to feeling unseen & unheard. Don’t give up, keep on living we only have one life and if it takes a dance party then start one in your kitchen now! #menopause #perimenopause #sustainablefashion #prelovedfashion #sustainableliving
