Our two fat questions are vastly different this week. We cover how will menopause affect my expat life?

And then what shall I buy as a hostess gift when I go to stay at someone’s house?

Broad enough for you?

Seriously though, what do you do if you’re an expat and you think you’re perimenopausal. Is it affecting new friendships? Is it stopping you from doing your job properly? Do you have someone to talk to? And how do you even know if you’re perimenopausal? The truth is menopause is a bit like childbirth, some of us pop babies out and carry on like nothing happened while others leave the hospital wondering wtaf just happened!

We’ve got hostess gifts covered this week. Booze, food, tea towels, and the magical lipgloss that everyone is trying to get their hands on. Go and have a listen and tell us what you think. xx
