  • Essential listening for anyone suffering from Menopause as a result of cancer.

    I’m so pleased that I found this podcast, shortly after I was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year. I feel so grateful to Dani Binnington for the wealth of information, support, inspiration, and encouragement that she has so expertly and lovingly curated. A cancer diagnosis is scary and the cancer journey can feel a lonely one. I definitely feel less frightened and much less alone listening to these podcast episodes.

  • Highly recommend

    I didn’t expect a podcast to feel this personal, but this one genuinely does. It discusses navigating menopause alongside cancer and is honest and open providing me to relate to it, which is hard to do with other menopause resources as my journey is so unique.
