Exciting!! Live Book Share
Thank you to Maisons-Laffitte International for allowing me to share some recipes from my new book Eating Well for Menopause! It was a lovely morning ending with lunch with some lovely women. It was nice to share the journey of writing the book – how Laura and I got to that point, why we think…
Tasting the Mediterranean Life
I just spent a week or so in Crete. Although it was a holiday, there was no escaping doing some writing and proof reading for the soon to be released book. “Eating Well for the Menopause” has so many references to the Mediterranean way of eating it was quite a timely trip. More about Menopause…
A big journey ahead…

Minding Me: Reframing Menopause
The focus of the retreat was food and nutrition, this content was something I was confident about after all the work with Let’s Talk Food and Laura. The venue was picked for its beauty and intimacy created by the hostess, an experienced, vegetarian chef. Yet I think I had underestimated the wider benefits of a…
