More Than a Curve with Barbara Bradshaw
In this episode, I’m joined by Barbara Bradshaw, who shares how perimenopause brought anxiety, self-doubt and a loss of confidence that left her barely recognising the woman looking back at her. We talk about her decision to walk away from a career in accountancy and choose a completely different path , one that brought new energy, new people and, ultimately, a new version of herself.
Barbara also opens up about supporting both of her daughters through scoliosis diagnoses and surgery, the emotional toll of trying to hold everything together as a parent, and why she now believes so strongly in taking things one day at a time and looking after yourself too.
It’s a conversation about change, motherhood, resilience and discovering that sometimes the version of ourselves we find in midlife might be the one that fits us best.
