Wendy gives menopause a new narrative

Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD) is a pioneering voice in lifestyle science for menopause and women’s healthy ageing. With a career spanning decades in women’s health and exercise, she broke new ground with her PhD research, connecting the dots between menopause symptoms, the ageing of organs around the body, and how a woman’s lifestyle could exacerbate her symptoms. 

Like many good things Wendy’s journey started with a curiosity, which was why women in western countries seem to experience worse menopause symptoms than in other countries. Her findings astounded her, and now over 18,000 women and 1,000 health professionals have benefited from her knowledge. 

An experienced and in-demand public speaker and conference presenter, Wendy’s unique take on lifestyle science for menopause and her mastery of the subject will challenge everything you thought you knew about menopause…

Wendy welcomes you to contact her directly if you have a Podcast or Event that you would like her to speak at.
