KATIE'S BLOG: The 'not so secret' diary of a midlife menopausal mum

A year ago, as well as deciding to build this website for our Facebook Group, i thought i would try and put together a collection of my midlife blogs that i had shared once a month on the group, as i'd always fancied writing a book.

Ok so its hardly the next J.K. Rowling best seller, and quite frankly, i'm not even sure if it can really even be classed as a book per se, but hey, it's my little book/diary/mad embarrassing moments over the last year, which also celebrates The Latte Lounge Facebook Group and I hope many of you will find it very light hearted, relatable and easy to read.

What's even more lovely is it is illustrated by my very clever dad (Prof Michael Baum) who is not only a surgeon, but also an extremely talented artist (he certainly didn't pass down either of those genes down to me, that's for sure!).

Anyway, if you did fancy having a read you can always pop it in the toilet for next time you are feeling a tad constipated -you can just about read it in one sitting!

From weight gain, memory issues, hormones and exercise failiures to kids, parents, dogs, men, holidays and going back to work, i think it pretty much covers it all.

It is available to buy on Amazon for only £4.99 (bargain!) and I would so appreciate you leaving me a review ideally like the ones below!!!

Anyway enough blatant self publicity, but a huge big shout out of thanks must go to the amazingly patient Nicky Fitzmaurice at Satin Publishing!

ENJOY!

Katie Taylor

CEO/Founder

Katie is the CEO and founder of The Latte Lounge which she created after suffering with undiagnosed perimenopausal symptoms for many years, which she struggled to find any relevant support for, both on and offline.

Every day Katie and the team hear from, and help, hundreds of women who come to The Latte Lounge for support, information and signposting for all their (and their families) health and wellbeing issues.

Her passion and commitment to supporting and challenging women's health inequalities stems from a desire to carry the baton of her fathers work in the field of breast cancer, and in memory of his mother (her grandmother) who tragically lost her life at a very young age to this cruel disease.

Previously Katie worked in PR, marketing, fundraising and event organising for a variety of charities, helping children and adults with learning disabilities, seriously ill children and teenagers in hospital, as well as supporting adults with mental health problems.
