Episode 21: Midlife podcasting with Sarah and Julia of Menopodcast

I had such fun meeting Julia Frey and Sarah Auerswald, the co-presenters of Menopodcast. These two first met as children growing up on Maui. They moved to Los Angeles, worked in the film industry, set up businesses and are doing a massive job now raising awareness of menopause on their fabulously popular podcast. I’ve been a guest on their podcast three times! So it was lovely to turn the tables and find out about their midlife journeys. We had a lot of giggles. These two have so much wisdom and inspiration to share.  

In this fabulous interview we cover:

• what it’s like hosting a podcast about menopause
• why they are so keen to raise awareness
• how it’s important to hear regular voices talking about menopause
• going through menopause with young children at home
• how the podcast grew out of blogging 
• growing up on Maui and getting newspapers when someone flew in with one
• surprising things about menopause
• heart disease as the #1 killer of women
• negative stereotypes around menopause
• the opportunities of menopause
• that Fleabag scene
• giving zero fucks and how great that is
• the importance of getting and staying healthy

And lots more!
