48, Single Mother to a 10y old daughter, lives in Essex, happy, love outdoors, foodie haunts, swimming and sunshine. Owned a Media Buying Agency for years, having been Commercial Director of largest multiple Travel Ad Agency in UK.

I owned a successful Under 5’s Wooden Playcentre & Restaurant which unfortunately had to close in the Pandemic. UK needs a Hospitality Minister!! Award Winning help for new Parents. Still run the socials of 14k+.

From personal experience I am interested in how the Menopause and the absence of Oestrogen has affected our mental health, positively or negatively.

Perhaps it has revealed a New Superpower, ie ADHD & if you didn’t know you had it - it will definitely reveal itself in the Menopause!

Dopamine (aka the happy hormone) and Oestrogen/Estrogen is the link here as Oestrogen triggers Dopamine. When absent both lead to: Memory Loss, Cognitive Issues and The Fog.

Big learning curve for me at 48. I am on HRT to see if it helps with my Dopamine as not on ADHD medication.

Dopamine top ups also come from drinking, so Binge Drinking in over 50’s is alarmingly high, plus the pandemic not helping.

Dec 20, The Sunday Times reported people were drinking up to 5 bottles of wine a week. That is 50 units. The recommended weekly amount is 14.

My personal story is I realised I wanted to moderate my drinking during Covid as I lost my hospitality business due to Pandemic, nursing my shock. I wanted to cut down not cut out with low alcohol. Mindful Drinking.

I researched the No/Low Drink offerings in UK versus Regular Wines, Spirits and decided there needed to be something more in the middle, so reacted by launching Mooze 12%, a newer, lower distilled Alt.Gin. 18 cals a pour. 6 Botanicals. Sugar and Sweetener Free, Vegan. International Award Winning Distillers in Essex. Delicious, crisp taste with 88 cucumbers in each small batch. Sustainable packaging.

Moderate your Drinking! Swap in some glasses of Mooze. Just 0.3 units a glass.
