Claire lost over a decade of her life to undiagnosed menopausal joint pain, seeing more than 15 specialists, undergoing 2,500+ blood tests, and spending two and a half years sleeping upright against a doorframe because lying down triggered panic attacks. All without a single correct diagnosis.\nWhen Claire finally got her answers - thanks to a male physiotherapist who'd simply noticed that every woman in his clinic that day had joint problems - she didn't just rebuild her life, she dedicated it to making sure no other woman goes through what she did.\nThis episode is raw, honest and at times genuinely shocking. Claire shares the full story: the misdiagnoses, the loneliness, the dark moments at the top of a car park, and the extraordinary journey from beauty therapist in calipers to sell-out theatre shows and boardroom presentations. If you've ever been told there's nothing wrong with you when you know there is, this one is for you.\nIn this episode, you'll discover:How Claire lost ten years of her life to joint pain that every consultant missed and what finally unlocked the answerWhy perimenopause is so much more than hot flushes: anxiety, panic attacks, joint pain and the 70+ symptoms nobody talks aboutWhy suicide rates for women peak between the ages of 45 and 49 (and why that's no coincidence)How to build your menopause toolkit: HRT, green space, blue space, movement, supplements and communityWhat Claire wishes every employer, male or female, understood about menopause in the workplaceQuote of the Episode: \"My motto is suffering should not be an option.\" Clare Hattrick\nFollow Claire:Website: https://www.theexecutivemenopausecoach.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theexecutivemenopausecoach/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/claire-hattrick-020809159/Buy Claire's Book here:...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/DnbRdXSn-kTn95Uj43MHBEYWZ9HlNAletcZjwm_gLKc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9mNDBi/N2RkMzNmYTU2MTNj/MzQyYTFiNmY4YjNl/ZDM3Yy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
