About This Podcast

Welcome to Hot Flashes: Menopause Monologues, where the shimmering heat of real-life truths meets the crackling sparks of creative fantasy. This is not your mother’s menopause manual, nor is it a collection of dreary statistics to send you scrambling for the nearest sage tea. Instead, it’s a brazen celebration of a universal experience that so often goes unspoken, unexplored, and underestimated. This podcast series features monologues collected from the book series ”The Menopause Monologues” written by Helena Jevons, dramatised and performed by actors all with lived experience of menopause. From stories inspired by real-life women to imagined experiences from history and fiction, it’s an emotional rollercoaster - not unlike menopause itself. A Soundliness Production 2025
