40s Woman and Beyond
40s Woman and Beyond
Margaret Cabourn-Smith, Anna Black, Gen Hallam
Hi, I’m Anna from 40s Woman & Beyond. I’m a perimeno coach and pt and together with Genevieve, a friend and nutrition coach I love to work, talk and collaborate with women on a host of events. We were so lucky to persuade Margaret Cabourn-Smith, host of the extremely popular and very funny Podcast “Crushed” to host this, our  podcast. We are all women in our perimenopausal years who have different experiences and areas of knowledge, and we wanted to start a conversation on why these can be crazy years, but why they can be great years too. We’d love you to join!  DisclaimerAnna Black, Genevieve Hallam, Margaret Cabourn-Smith or any guest presenter featured in this podcast cannot be held responsible for any injury or harm caused as a result of participation in any session or ideas you follow as a result of listening to this podcast.
