Description

In today's episode, I have two women who have gone and done fantastic things whilst moving their bodies. Yep, we talk about the benefits of exercise but what we focus on are all the trimmings that come with it, the things that are hard to be measured and why it’s ok to be last and how that can still make you feel like you’re winning and on top of the world.If you’re moving lots already or have lost your mojo completely, I hope this episode will sprinkle you with a good portion of positivity!Lucy Patullo has worked as a lawyer for an investment bank but decided to qualify as a Pilates teacher following her cancer diagnosis in 2021. She now helps others experience the benefits of Pilates to help them get through treatment & thrive beyond cancer. She set up Rebalance Me UK. You can find Lucy here: https://www.instagram.com/rebalancemeuk/?hl=enGemma Lumley is a walk leader for outdoor activities company, Yorkie Talkies Outdoors, a copy writer, chocolate taster and a cleaner ;-)Gemma says, “I’d love to help anyone recently diagnosed, in treatment or in the ‘moving forward’ phase to access the beauty of the great outdoors.”You can find the Yorkie Talkies Outdoors company here www.yorkietalkies.co.ukAbout Dani:The Menopause and Cancer Podcast is hosted by Dani Binnington, menopause guide, patients advocate for people in menopause after a cancer diagnosis, and founder of the online platform Healthy Whole Me. There is lots of information out there about the menopause but hardly any if you have had a cancer diagnosis as well. Many people say to me they have no idea what their options are, who to ask for help, and that they feel really isolated in their experiences. I started this podcast because there was nothing out there when I was thrown into surgical menopause at the age of 39, which followed on from my cancer diagnosis aged 33.Through the episodes, I want to create more awareness, share information from our fabulous guest experts, doctors and other specialists in the cancer and menopause field. And of course, I will share stories from the people in our community.So that together we can work towards a better menopause experience. For all of us.More educated, better informed and less alone.Connect with Dani:Instagram @healthywholeme  Facebook: @healthywholeme  Join Dani’s private Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathubFor oodles of inspiration, healthy recipes, yoga classes and all round positivity go to her website: https://www.healthywholeme.com/

Has cancer treatment led you to early menopause? Do you feel confused about your options? This podcast hosts conversations with cancer patients, survivors and medical professionals to learn about treatments available for women with a cancer diagnosis.  I’m Dani Binnington, after breast cancer, surgery to remove my ovaries led me to early menopause, I had no idea what my treatment options were and who in my medical team could help me figure out what to do about my symptoms. I felt alone and unsupported. It took me so long to discover I had lots of options too. If only I’d known sooner! Everything I wish I’d known back then is inside these conversations - so you can make the right choices now.  These episodes are a good place to start: 1. Rethinking Tamoxifen & Aromatase Inhibitors  2. Why I decided to take HRT after an oestrogen driven cancer 2.
