Show Me The Way To Manage The Menopause with The CityFashGal Paula Fry

Published: Jan. 19, 2023, 7:01 a.m.
Duration: 24 minutes 9 seconds

Menopause. A word that often strikes fear, embarrassment, denial!

Its onset comes with a myriad of symptoms that affect many women differently. It may be a natural part of ageing that effects half of the population but its effects can have a severely detrimental effect on that 50%s working life.

Given it usually occurs between 45 and 55 years - its peak careerr/ earning potential...Research shows that 10% of women leave their jobs, and many more reduce their hours or pass up promotions because of their menopausal symptoms.

Not only does that hit the pay packet, it can hit your long term living too. Recent research has found that menopause could leave a \\xa363,000 dent in a woman\\u2019s retirement savings as a result of moving to reduced hours.

To talk about all this, and how she\'s navigated this time herself I\'m joined by Paula Fry, Global Head of Fixed Income and FX Trading Liquidity at\\xa0Bloomberg - the global financial data and media company who also has an impressive instagram following as @cityfashgal and appeared on Davina\'s Menopause documentary series: Sex, Mind and the Menopause.

Paula feared she was developing dementia when she began going through perimenopause in her early 40s.

She describes how the brain fog was so debilitating thing and how she questioned whether she was clever enough any more to do the job.

Please share this episode. It\'s by speaking up, and listening, that we normalise conversation about something that is so normal and recognise that as all of us will be working well into our 60s, we need to keep going during the menopause and support each other, and be supported to get through it. Otherwise we get lost. And we miss out on not only career opportunities but also a chunk of cash for later in life.

Lucy explains that if we believe sustainability is about sacrifice, we\\u2019re much less likely to embrace any kind of alteration in our lifestyles but celebration and compassion both tap into the reward centres of our brain. So it\'s important that we celebrate small changes and forgive the lapses.

Spending time at home as part of a hybrid working week is now a norm, not an exception.

That\'s where Zo\\xeb Vita James comes in. She\'s a classical feng shui practitioner who uses the centuries old practice to help women understand their true selves, desires and help make their dreams come true.

Classical Feng Shui is the very much tailored to the person, however there are still some tips that you can pick up and use straight off the bat and she shares some of those with us here.

Zoe spent 17 years in the professional services industry (PwC) advising internationally renowned investment banks (and as a Chartered Accountant). Now she brings that same clarity, calm confidence and gentle empathy to Astrology & Feng Shui work.

...To Make Representation Matter with African Fine Jeweller Vania Leles

Published: July 9, 2020, 9 a.m.
Duration: 25 minutes 21 seconds

"I walk into diamond bourses around the world. I\\u2019m the only black person. I\\u2019m the only black woman.
People expect me to fail.
Yes I\\u2019m a small fish in this big pond full of sharks but I don\'t care.
Things have to change. We will try to fix it because it\\u2019s our own people."

Vania Leles, founder VANLELES DIAMONDS

Vania Leles is the first African woman to own a fine jewellery store on London\\u2019s Bond Street. That\\u2019s pretty remarkable in itself but her journey to this point is even more so.

Vania Leles is shortlisted for Veuve Clicquot BOLD woman award 2020

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO SHOW ME THE WAY WITH VANIA LELES

Vania was born in Guinea-Bissau - a small country on West Africa\\u2019s Atlantic coast and moved to Lisbon to be educated when she was six.\\xa0

She saved all her money to do an English course at SOAS, working in restaurants to pay her bills and eventually took a job as a social worker in Camden but then got scouted by Select Models and landed a massive Diesel campaign.

That campaign would pay her four times what she would have made in a year so she decided to become a model full-time and moved to New York.
She came up with the idea for her business Vanleles Diamonds when on a photo shoot in New York.

It was whilst on a photo shoot on New York that she started to release that although 75-80% of the gems that exist in fine jewellery comes from the continent but as she says "it\\u2019s absurd that we don\'t have representation on this side of the industry - more African fine jewellery brands, more African diamond dealers across the bourses of this world." Because as she says, "how come countries do not produce an ounce of diamonds and they trade all the diamonds in the world....We have to be human enough to realise that is unfair."

...To BOTH Thrive in Love and Work As A Dual-Career Couple with INSEAD Professor Jennifer Petriglieri

Published: June 18, 2020, 9 a.m.
Duration: 22 minutes 43 seconds

Every couple wants a happy relationship and a meaningful career but how do we balance both especially when we\'re both at home, sharing office space and childcare? That\'s the question for this week\'s guest\\xa0Professor Jennifer Petriglieri.

Professor Jennifer Petriglieri, author of Couples That Work

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO SHOW ME THE WAY WITH PROF PETRIGLIERI

She is a Professor of Organizational Behaviour at INSEAD, Paris and has pent over a decade researching how people\\u2019s close relationships shape who they become professionally and personally, and for the past 6 years she\'s been studying the lives of dual-career couples which has culminated in her book Couples That Work: How Dual-Career Couples Can Thrive In Love And Work.

One of the biggest career decisions you will make is who you choose as a partner, she says. And one of the things that the global covid lockdown has highlighted for some is that they\'ve made the wrong decision. There are many couples who are spending all this time together but feel like they\\u2019re drifting apart. She says a lot of couples who she is speaking to are feeling the strain because they\\u2019re polarising in terms of how they\\u2019re reacting to the crisis and it\\u2019s putting a lot of strain on the relationship itself.

Professor Petriglieri asks us to consider when the last time was that we had an annual review with our partners as you would at work. Possibly/ probably never!

She says that right now just a little time each day to check in with each other can make the world of difference. It can be over lunch to find out how the morning has gone or whilst cooking dinner.

In the episode she explains that the more we understand about our partner and the more they understand about us, the more it flicks us into an mindset of empathy. "When we\\u2019re in that mindset of empathy we are much more likely to be sensitive to each other and to support each other. So it\\u2019s a win, win and it doesn\\u2019t take a lot of time".

Her recommendation for Emmeline\'s bookshelf is Sophie\'s World.
Her book is Couples That Work: How Dual-Career Couples Can Thrive In Love And Work.

...To Be A Writer...with Author and Journalist, Leaf Arbuthnot

Published: June 3, 2020, 5:24 a.m.
Duration: 29 minutes 8 seconds

Leaf Arbuthnot, journalist and author of Looking for Eliza

Leaf Arbuthnot is a journalist, editor and author based in south London. She has written primarily for the Sunday Times for the past 5 years and\\xa0 has interviewed the likes of Prince Charles, Jilly Cooper and Hilary Mantel. Her work spans everything from divorce parties to wild swimming and her first novel Looking for Eliza came out in May 2020.

The book tells the story of a widow and a student who form a friendship amidst the cathedral spires of Oxford. It\'s about connection in solitude - topical in the light of the lockdown era in which it has been released.

Debut novel from Leaf Arbuthnot

On this episode we talk about how she came to write the book and get it published; how writers have to be unapologetic about "selling their wears" on social and how challenging that can be for some; how the lockdown could produce quite a "large pile of introspective male fiction about tortured men" and her recommendation for Emmeline\'s bookshelf.
