October is menopause awareness month and it’s, in my opinion, still THE most under-discussed topic when it comes to women’s health.

“She can box!” It’s all I ever wanted to showcase, to prove or display. It’s true. Showing that I, a grown woman in my late-thirties when I started and now 51 – can box. Not a brawl or a scrap but a clean, technical boxing match. I checked that box 14 times with this…
