Laura Dowling is the person that every woman needs in her life and I'm so happy to have her as my guest in this incredibly informative episode.

Laura, who is a highly experienced pharmacist, wants women to learn how to take control of their health and spends a lot of her time demystifying and debunking myths about medication and medical conditions. She also has toured Ireland encouraging women to learn and be open about sex, vulvas, menopause and so much more.

As well as all of this amazing work, Laura is the founder of a brilliant supplement brand called Fabuwellness, where her wide medical and scientific knowledge have helped ensure that her supplements really do what they say they will and are packed with great quality ingredients.

During the episode we talk about our frustration at how the pharmaceutical industry for so long made medication that had only been tested on men because womens' hormones made us too "complex". We also talk about protecting our health, the peri/menopause and why vaginal oestrogen can be a total gamechager for many many women. There is a lot of humour too (Laura has a giant, cuddly vulva which she takes along to her events nd shows me during the episode and that's just for starters).

Enjoy getting to know and learning from this truly remarkable and really lovely woman.
