NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe are stretching - this time into our 40's.So let’s drop our shoulders and take a breath – and welcome Suzanne Kane back to the pod. Suzanne is a broadcaster on 98fm, a mother of 3 and 6 months ago she opened up here on Stretch Marks podcast about her perimenopause era. The response was a collective sigh of relief and gratitude from the thousands of women that had the same symptoms and had no idea what was going on for them. Suzanne inspired so many women in their 40’s to book those appointments and to stop waiting for the stereotypical symptoms of hot flushes to appear. Anxiety was a big enough sign. 6 months on and a rollercoaster of HRT, she’s back to fill us all in.

40: Emily O'Donoghue Fashionably Fortyish - Embracing and Thriving in our 40's
NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe are stretching - this time into our 40's.So let’s drop our shoulders and take a breath – it’s time to meet my last guest of 2024, Emily O’Donoghue @Fashionablyfortyish If you haven’t discovered Emily yet she is a mother of 2 girls who started her instagram 5 years ago to share her love of fashion which has grown into this really engaged community of women sharing and supporting each others growth, passions and health. She is 45, midway through her 40’s and gives us glorious nuggets of truth and wisdom in this conversation. We talk about how our 40’s is such a pivotal decade for women. How moments in early motherhood with premature births and dangerously high blood pressure continue to leave their mark on her, and how she supports her mental health with anti depressants, movement, nutrition and great friends. As women in our 40’s we need to gather and connect - whether through social, on this pod or I hope in real life. And this is that. It’s a beautiful celebration of connection. And the last episode to close out the year.

40: Kellie Billings - Caring for Mam with Alzheimers
NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe are stretching - this time into our 40's.There comes a point for many of us where we slide into this “sandwich” generation of caring for young and caring for old.And somewhere between the weight, worry and love for them all, we can ignore our bodies whispers - but as my guest today Kellie Billings explains, you can only ignore them for so long. Kellie is in her early 40’s, she's the Beauty Editor with Social and Personal Magazine, co-host of the Skin in the Game podcast, a mum of 3 girls and daughter of an incredible mother with alzheimers. And in August her body said no more and she needed urgent surgery for a perforated stomach ulcer while in Portugal on holiday. We talk about caring for her mam with Alzheimers, signs her body was not ok, and the lessons learned from her emergency health scare.Supported by Key For Her - Their two-step supplement includes two unique blends to support your daily wellness and help naturally alleviate the symptoms associated with menstruation, perimenopause and menopause.Use the discount code STRETCH for 20% off your first order across all products on keyforher.com "The 40's Stretch" is a Stretch Marks Production,Hosted by Sinéad O'Moore, produced by The Brand Story and sound edited by Alan Breslin.Contact: [email protected]://www.instagram.com/stretchmarkspodcast/ Hosted on Acast.

We talk about her decision to get HRT, her love of the coil; and how as women she witnesses her clients suffer in silence with common pelvic symptoms, thinking this is our new normal. And she is currently on a mission to make vaginal oestrogen an over the counter treatment in Ireland to minimise bladder issues, leaking, urinary tract infections, dryness and pain caused by the decreasing levels of oestrogen in the body.
