With significant female figures breaking down taboos around menopause and opening up the discussion, women are in a stronger position than ever before to insist on a better midlife experience – a real cause for celebration. But while these discussions around menopause are brilliant and empowering, it’s vital that we don't let the conversation stop there. Because midlife for women is a multifaceted experience, one in which our changing bodies play an enormous part, but that’s far from the only thing going on.

MIDLIFE MATTERS promises to be an all-encompassing guide and manual for midlife women, exploring the five key areas of HEALTH, WELLBEING, RELATIONSHIPS, WORK LIFE, CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES with humour and honesty. Guiding us through, author Katie’s Taylor’s friendly narrative is supported by expert contributions in each chapter, including advice and resources from a world-renowned medical advisory team – and of course the testimonies of real women from the midlife community.
