Menopause Trailblazer – Dr Louise Newson

  • August 21, 2024
  • by Claire

Our guest this week is known globally for kickstarting a menopause revolution. 

UK-based Dr Louise Newson is a physician, menopause specialist, businesswoman, educator and author. Not only that, she’s the founder of the award-winning Balance menopause app which has had more than one million downloads, and she hosts a weekly podcast as well! 

As you’ll hear, Dr Newson is also making big inroads into educating the medical profession about menopause and perimenopause, with more than 30,000 clinicians globally downloading her online program. And believe us it’s needed! 

In this fascinating episode that every woman should listen to you’ll hear: 

  • How Louise missed identifying her own menopause symptoms for months
  • What keeps her keep going despite attacks and criticism from some in the medical world
  • How even today, many Doctors are never taught anything about women’s hormone health, and 
  • How hard this passionate campaigner has found running her medical clinics business.

We were so impressed speaking with Louise, and it really is incredible that today, in 2024, there is still so much misinformation about hormone replacement therapy (HRT) out there. 

 As you’ll hear, her work has also had a direct and positive impact on our own lives and health. 

Enjoy this episode with the determined and passionate Dr Louise Newson …

Astronaut, Entrepreneur and Future-Maker – Anousheh Ansari

  • August 8, 2024
  • by Claire

Ever wondered what it’s like to ride in a rocket, and we do mean literally? 

Today you get to hear first hand about space travel with our guest, the 44th female astronaut in history and the first Iranian and Muslim woman in space. Astronaut and Entrepreneur, Anousheh Ansari is also only the 4th self-funded person to travel to space and the International Space Station. 

We had the best time in this conversation with Anousheh, hearing her incredible stories about the experience of rocketing into orbit. 

And Anousheh is so much more than an astronaut. She’s also an extremely successful entrepreneur and co-founded a successful technology company which saw her listed on Fortune Magazine’s 40 under 40. Shortly after she sold that business in 2000 for around $USD 750 million. 

A qualified electrical engineer, Ahousheh has been recognised for her innovation and entrepreneurialism with numerous awards including the George Mason University Entrepreneurial Excellence Award, and a Space Pioneer award from the National Space Society 

These days, Anousheh is focused on solving humanity’s biggest problems, something she does as CEO of the X Prize Foundation as you’ll hear in our episode. It’s some of the most hopeful content we’ve heard in years! 

In this absorbing episode you’ll also learn: 

  • How growing up in Iran during the Revolution has impacted Anousheh’s approach to life
  • Why space was something that fascinated her since she was a little girl
  • What Anousheh believes it takes to build a successful business 
  • How she and her family have made a massive difference to the space industry 
  • The highs and lows of 9 months of astronaut training in Russia, and
  • How, with numerous X Prizes addressing Earth’s biggest issues, she’s hopeful about our future.

So buckle up and do not miss this inspiring conversation with the entrepreneurial and abundant thinker & doer, Anousheh Ansari…
