Take A Breath
A podcast for creating practical calm in the messy middle of midlife.
This is your space to pause.
Because life in midlife is full-on. Between work, family, menopause, and the mental load, your nervous system can easily end up in constant overdrive — leaving you feeling exhausted, reactive, and overwhelmed by even the smallest things.
Each week, I’ll share my own tools, alongside honest conversations and practical nervous system support — to help you create more calm, peace, joy, and inner steadiness. Not by escaping your life, because that’s totally unrealistic, but by meeting it differently.
So when you're ready, let’s take a breath together…

#22 A Holistic Approach to Menopause with Dr Ron Eaker
In this week's episode of The Positive Perimenopause Podcast, I speak to Dr. Ron Eaker, a board-certified Obstetrician and Gynecologist from Augusta, Georgia.
As well as being a Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, Dr. Eaker is the author of three books including his most recent “A Woman’s Guide To Hormone Health”, a book on everything menopause.
Dr Eaker is also a clinical advisor to the American Running and Fitness Association and has
completed sixty five marathons/half marathons on three continents!
Dr Eaker takes a truly holistic approach to treating menopause symptom. He believes in a healthy lifestyle as prevention but also HRT for symptom treatment if necessary.
In this conversation we discuss:
- How Dr Ron became interested in women’s health and in particularly menopause
- The power of supportive partners during menopause
- How sharing experiences helps normalise menopause
- Some of the differences between HRT in the UK and the US
- Symptom treatment versus prevention treatment
- How preplanning for menopause can reduce symptoms
- How reshaping your belief system is essential for a happy menopause
