In this special live Showy Ovaries performance, the irrepressible comedian Penny Ashton will talk to bestselling novelist Nicky Pellegrino and acclaimed health writer Niki Bezzant, who both written about menopause. No one is too young for this session; knowing what’s ahead may change how you live your life today!
On the cusp of 50, Penny Ashton imagines her ovaries are about to retire and wants to know everything about it in advance, so she launched her new podcast, 'Showy Ovaries', and embarked on a voyage of discovery into the mysterious world of menopause. So, what better way to navigate her moisture moving from inside her body to perspiring out her face, than by talking to a series of wondrous women and owners of ovaries about their own journeys.
Forget the myths and misinformation, bestselling novelist and respected health writer Nicky Pellegrino has done the work for you in Don’t Sweat It, an empowering and honest book that reveals how menopause can affect everything from your weight to your memory and sleep, to skyrocketing anxiety levels and your missing libido...
In This Changes Everything: The Honest Guide to Menopause and Perimenopause, expert health writer Niki Bezzant shares the latest specialist research and advice along with personal stories from real women to answer the most important questions women have about the hottest of topics. She dispels the myths and confusion around menopause with a healthy side-serve of calling out sexism, snake oil and bullsh*t along the way and explains how to get the best help, for you.
Whether you’re heading towards perimenopause, are noticing some changes, or are well into your menopause years, this session is for you. There will be plenty of time before, during and after the show to connect with old and new friends – and once Ashton has convinced you nothing is off limits, plenty of time to ask questions.
