91: Siobhan McCarthy - Menopause Skincare and the Surprise of Perimenopause

/

Siobhan McCarthy is the Co-Founder of Living M. Living M is the most luxurious thing to happen to my skin since Perimenopause began and I say that from the bottom of my heart. It is also so much more than skincare – there is a warm community and camaraderie that brings women together.

For many of us, it’s easier to see when our symptoms began; for Siobhan, it was in her late 30’s when Perimenopause simply wasn’t on her radar and because they weren’t “the classics” she thought she was probably imagining it. I am sure many of you can relate. And sure enough, just as one thing is under control, another pops up elsewhere.

In this episode, we discuss her experience of eczema, dry eye, surprising skin changes and, her least favourite symptom – brain fog. Siobhan also brings up the relevant and interesting topic of resistance to ageing and how this can feed into something of a denial when it comes to Menopause – especially because of the way society has viewed women in Menopause. 

“The fear of dying is human, the fear of ageing is cultural.” 

Speaking to Siobhan makes me smile, I hope listening to her makes you smile too.
