At 29 I was diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI).
It was a huge shock. I suddenly found myself grieving the loss of fertility while battling menopause symptoms I never expected to face so young.
I had been living life to the full, travelling and working abroad, building my career and suddenly everything changed. The extreme tiredness, brain fog, and loss of focus hit hard. My confidence took a knock, and I often felt like a shadow of the person I used to be.
Day to day was hard- never feeling âquite rightâ. Daily symptoms and crippling low confidence.
Now, 22 years on, Iâm in a new chapter, running my own business supporting women through menopause, hosting events, qualifying to educate in the workplace and further studying to become a qualified menopause coach practitioner! There is light and more support.
The grief and tears are still part of my story, but so is strength, purpose, and connection.
I am no longer that woman who felt âon the scrap heapâ in her 20s and neither are you.
What a wonderful day Daisy Network!
