Kirstin Bouse is a Clinical Psychologist with nearly three decades of experience. Over the past fifteen or so years, she’s worked with women as they navigate big transitions in their lives—motherhood, divorce, and perimenopause.
6 years into her own perimenopause experience, Kirstin became super frustrated by the lack of recognition of the significance of perimenopause and midlife in general.
Kirstin says the reality is that midlife is pretty bloody full-on. From the hormonal drama that unfolds for many to the life events that happen during these years and to FINALLY caring less what other people think, midlife tends to be quite a ride.
In this podcast ep we chat about:
- the clusterfckery of Kirstin's own perimenopause + burnout + late ADHD diagnosis journey and how it's provided HUGE drive to educate and gather meno-aware health practitioners through her business and health professionals community All About Her Centre
- how so many health professionals - including Kirstin's own GP and gynaecologist - are not perimenopause aware, which means women are not being supported the way they need to be
- Kirstin's personal lightbulb moment when she realised she was complaining about sleep - just like her Mum did during perimenopause
- how the drive for autonomy and values-driven contribution are significant motivations for midlife health professionals to join the All About Her community
- how perimenopause, although painful and uncomfortable can also provide the disruption that invites us to re-evaluate our lives, and question conditioning around roles and responsibilities
- the psychological stages of menopause that no one is talking about, and how it is so much more than the physical stuff
