NEW EPISODE:
Could Alcohol Be Affecting Your Menopause More Than You Think? With Sarah Rusbatch
Release Date: July 12, 2026
Maybe you're a little curious about life without alcohol, or wondering when drinking quietly becomes more than just a social habit.
In this episode of Simply Nourish – Menopause: Through & Beyond, I talk with author, coach and founder of The Women’s Wellbeing Collective, Sarah Rusbatch, about grey area drinking, alcohol through menopause and beyond, and what can happen when we begin to question our relationship with it.
We explore the impact alcohol can have on sleep, mood, energy and wellbeing, Sarah’s own story, and why choosing to drink less, or not at all, doesn’t have to mean missing out.
A thoughtful, honest conversation about alcohol, women’s health and making different choices.
