A study published in Post Reproductive Health (the BMS publication), found that menopausal joint pain was experienced by almost 40% of women aged between 45 and 65.
It can vary from a few twinges to being so painful that it’s completely debilitating.
Our guest today suffered with undiagnosed menopause joint pain for 10 years which left her unable to stand, sit or walk despite being under several consultants who could find nothing wrong. At the same time she was
raising twin daughters on her own.
Claire Hattrick is now 56 and her daughters are 25 and in 2020 Clare decided to make it her mission to teach and educate both women and men about menopause and the possible symptoms that come with it, making
sure that no other woman loses years of their life to menopause like she did.
The Executive Menopause Coach was launched, helping women in midlife to navigate the menopause and allowing them space to rediscover their purpose and value.
Fun fact Clare can still do the splits and has appeared on numerous national and local TV programmes, newspapers and women’s magazines with her menopause work (not doing the splits) and now she can add
the Global podcast Womenkind Collective Podcast to that list!
